Your phone identifies each note by octave (*0 through *8),
note (a through g, with sharp notes preceded by a #), and
note length (0 through 5). For example, a C# quarter note
in octave 4 displays as *4#c2.
Each note must contain the following information, in the
following sequence: octave, note, length, and length
modifier (optional).
Octave
Enter * before a number to identify it as an octave value.
Octave information (*0 to *8) must come before the note. If
you do not specify an octave, the note is played as an
octave 4 note.
Key Display Description
0 * enter * followed by a number
(0 to 8) to set the octave
Note: Octaves 3 through 5 cover the full range of notes
currently available on your phone. The notes are
duplicated in octaves 0-2 and 6-8.
