"and my brain knows to move my right ring finger down half an inch and press the key there--I don't have to consciously think about it. That's where I want to get with notes on a staff."
But that's going to be different for every instrument. In addition to the text not being as easy for me to see visually, the computer keyboard as an instrument that makes music is foreign to me. Part of how I sightread music is notes on page to sound in head to fingers on keys.. this may be part of why I'm not good at it, but, would you be able to take this notation and play it on an instrument that you already play, does it map that way for you? Because it completely does not for me.
