Fingering Records Group - General Description
 


The fingering for a particular note is comprised of a group of records, collectively called "fingering records." They are the N (Note) record, the F (Fingering) record, and the I (Information) record.

For one particular note, a group consists of one N record, followed by (usually) one F record and optionally an I record for that F record. If a note has alternate fingerings, F and I pairs can follow the N record. For example, this pattern shows a note with a standard fingering record with Info, followed by 3 alternate fingering records, one with Info (this is just the pattern - the data is not shown):

   N
   F00
   I 
   F01
   I
   F02
   F03

A special N record (combined with regular F records) is used to create External ReadMe information (see External ReadMe - Creating).

A special I record is used to place the words "shade windway" to the right of the recorder picture (see I (Information) Record).
