Hymn Maps/Hazzat

You can download the font Hazzat v1.10a from our brothers at hazzat.com, but one request from the author is to share your hymns with everyone for teaching purposes, which is a reason for the birth of this website!

Its use is simple; below will be a simplified tutorial, but for a full “how-to” click here.

  1. The first line if the keyboard (qwerty… lowercase) is for short notes increasing by 1 each letter
    (q = 1, w = 2, etc)

  2. The second line (asdf… lowercase): a is a fast transition character, but s on is extending that note
    (s = 2nd, d = 3rd, etc)

  3. The third line (zxcv… lowercase) is for full notes increasing by 1 each letter
    (z = 1, x = 2, etc.)

  4. The notes are made in a way that when you type 2+ in a row they connect.
    For example: qq is 2 half single notes and would look like z, and zz would be a long single note.

  5. Numbers will indicate the number of times a set of notes/hazzat will be repeated;
    Shift+Numbers - will denote a set with a number so it can be referred to later.
