Changing 1 Drum Measure to Crash Symbol

I hope this is showing up okay, because it is in small, black, print on my end.

My Operating System is Windows 7, 8 gbytes, and I am using Sibelius 7.5.1.

How do I make a crash cymbol sound in just one measure? I have scored for 15 instruments, and have the drum part (Jazz), but I just want one measure as a crash cymbal sound.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Enter the crash note. Change the notehead to an x. Move it up or down until the crash sound is heard. I think that is what you want.

Hi Bob,

Hope you received this, as I'm still getting used to this format.

I was able to change the Drum Measure to Crash Cymbal, although drum mapping is one of the more difficult technologies in Sibelius.

Thanks again.
