The Numbered Notes Solution



Using Numbers

Numbers offer several strong advantages over lettered notation.


1. They are universally recognizable symbols that almost everyone around the world can identify from a young age.


2. They are sequential allowing for counting, so that one can navigate intervals by counting half steps.


3. They allow advanced analysis of theory.



Staff Design

Numbered Notes also uses a "12 Note Staff". It has an "octave number" that precedes the staff and is designed to hold groups of 12. Each staff has 4 lines assigned 3 notes arranged: under, on or above the line. Notes are placed in the same location providing a uniform progression in every octave range. Using numbers on the "12 Note Staff" eliminates the need for both "Key-Signatures" and "Accidentals" making it much easier to learn, read and play music.
