Option to change note display in the Tracker from sharps (#) to flats (b)

Allow the user to change the note display in the tracker view from using sharps (#) to use flats (b) instead. To be able to have both options (like G → G# → Ab → A …) when changing the notes with the wheel would be even better!

What is the problem?

The problem is that I mostly compose in “flat keys” like Cm, Fm, Bb since I’m more used to those keys through the other instruments I play. And if I play a bass line in Cm it’s not very natural to have to program notes called D#, G#, A# on the tracker.

What do you want to achieve?

I want to achieve that the harmonic content is easier to enter and easier to understand in certain situations.

Are there any workarounds?

Thinking really hard which quickly kills inspiration :wink:

Any links to related discussions?

This one I suppose.

Any references to other products?

Nope

This is something that would help me immensely. I think the setting should, at minimum, attached to the project, not a system-wide config.

I would really like this as well. Its very frustrating/annoying trying to compose on the tracker itself when it only shows sharps. There should be an option to switch between sharps/flats on a per project basis.

Please add this feature. Really frustrating trying to write progressions and not being able to use flats.
