__**Staff Notation**__
__**Staff Notation**__
For staff notation, just put an up or down to the left of the note and any standard accidental it might have. To write Db^ followed by Db in the same measure, use the mid sign: Db^ Db~. All 22 possible keys can be written out. The tonic is always a mid note, i.e. not up or down. Just as conventionally each black key produces both a sharp key and a flat key (Db major and C# minor), each of the 15 black keys of 22-EDO produces both, and there are 37 possible keys. The 2 most remote are Bbbb and F###, and triple-sharps and triple-flat keys seem rather extreme. Avoiding those, we have 35 possible tonics that run from Fbb to Bx. Some of the key signatures will have double-sharps or double-flats in them, or even triple-sharps.

To achieve this, ups and downs are allowed in tonic names and key signatures.
