Noteheads and playback

I am using Sibelius 5.1 and VDL 2.5 together on a Mac with Leopard.

I am trying to notate some crossover sticking for my Tenor Drums and want to do that with a Diamond notehead. When I do this, it changes the sound of what the tenors are doing and is not the desired sound anymore.

So my questions are:

*Is there any way to change the notehead without changing what sound is played back?

*If there is no way to do what I just asked, can I have some suggestions on how some of you notate crossovers for tenor players? I am not stuck on one thing or another...this is just how I have learned to notate it and it has not been an issue until now.

Your help is appreciated!
if you look in the template, there is a part of it that tells you what noteheads to use...

sorry i dont know hot to do images on here yet... i should probably look into that... for changing noteheads, its a feat, but if you are up to it, it is possible.

there is a little bit of info on this here... https://www.tapspace.com/forums/index.php?topic=2227.0
The fact that Hugh accounted for this when creating the Sibelius template is just one more reason why he is THE MAN!

Thanks Justin!
