# Respell pitches

## Manually changing the enharmonic spelling of notes

To change the enharmonic spelling of a note, or notes, in both written *and* concert pitch views:

1. Select a note, or group of notes
2. Press `J`
3. Continue pressing `J` to cycle through the enharmonic equivalents.

To change the enharmonic spelling in the written pitch view, without affecting the concert pitch view, or vice versa:

1. Select a note, or group of notes
2. Press `Ctrl`+`J` (Mac: `Cmd`+`J`)
3. Continue pressing the same combination of keys to cycle through the enharmonic equivalents.

**Note:** If the pitches of selected notes are not all the same, the effect may be unpredictable.
