NN is like a software upgrade for written music. Letters with sharps and flats area legacy from earlier times when there were only 7 notes A-G. Using numbers is an obvious sollution for indexing something incrementally. You wouldn’t count to 12 by saying 1, 1sharp, 2, 2 sharp…and so on. Using numbers for pitch is hopefully the future of written music….your thoughts?

Numbered Notes uses numbers 1-12 for each halfstep in an octave. Notes are placed into a 12 note staff. Each octave range is given a number, the middle octave range is “octave 4″. Using numbers 1-12 also allows a much easier way to see the intervals between two notes. This actually helps beginners understand and use theory much faster then they would trying to use traditional notation.
