Using Drum Kick Notation at -5
Crescendo uses a percussion stave with a default instrument mapping, where each vertical position corresponds to specific percussion instruments. If you cannot move the drum kick notation below
Check the percussion instrument mapping in the "Drum Kit Map Dialog." This mapping determines which notes can be placed on specific positions of the stave.
If the -5 position is not mapped to any instrument, it will not allow you to place a note there. You may need to remap instruments using the Drum Kit Map Dialog.
Transposing notes is not an option for percussion clefs because they are non-pitched; instead, adjust the mapping or use an alternative notation method.
These steps should help address your issues with fonts and drum kick notation in Crescendo."
