I've never had any problem with the standard solution -- slash on beat four, push on the and of four. If you're willing to accept that (stemless) slashes are just *beat markers*, not notes, then there's no problem. There's certainly no problem reading it.


In 4/4 I suppose it might be clear enough.

But what do you do with odd metres? Say 7/8 divided 2-2-3? Just 3 ordinary slashes? That doesn't seem to do it for me.

I know you don't like dotted slashes, but that seems to be the easiest way to indicate things like I mentioned above.


I have finally settled on kicks UNDER time - putting a rhythmic cue UNDER the staff so it doesn't interfere with the chord symbols.

That's what I do for rhythmic cues not intended to be doubled by the player.



Aha. I am vindicated!
