Benjamin, What I did before Fin2k2 for musica ficta was to define a small sharp (flat, natural) as an articulation assigned to a number key. It was easy just to hold down 7 (for example) and click the n�te. The ficta sharp immediately appears in place. You can set the distance from the note head or stem side. I was not often concerned with playback. When I wanted correct playback, I added the accidental to the note, then hid it with the * key.
