For spacing, I make diagonal lines down from the edges of the keysticks, one to three, depending on the amount of spacing needed. Travelling I don't mark -- I just do it. For voicing, since I make several passes, I leave the marks for each pass a different place -- the first pass I mark just behind the keytop, and the second is usually up on the shipping rail. The third varies somewhat. The marks are: a vertical line for normally bright, just a small dot for barely bright, and a big sloppy mark the whole width of the keystick for "unholy tin-can" bright. If a note is too soft or fluffy-sounding, I use a hollow circle. String-by-string voicing I usually do with the chopstick tool through the strings, so I don't need to mark for it. Regards, Susan
