RETURN doesn't seem to work for me. the played value doesn't change. 

the natural way for me would be either return or tab, which would also
automatically go on to the next field.  

As for partly-typed values, I can see two choices after the user has
typed something in:

1) when the user goes on to a different field, the value is not
persistant.  it reverts to the value played value when the user goes
onto something else. Then the note played will always be the number
shown, unless you are in the act of editing it. 

2) or a "mode change" as "out of band"  --> when the cursor is no longer
blinking in that square, note input is triggered, which syncs the number
on the screen with what is played. 

in both cases, the number on the screen matches what is played unless
you are actively editing it. that's the important part to me.
