<!--[[Standard Beatbox Notation]] links directly to this section.-->
As with other musical disciplines, some form of [[musical notation]] or [[transcription (music)|transcription]] may sometimes be useful in order to describe beatbox patterns or performances. Sometimes this takes the form of [[ad hoc]] phonetic approximations, but is occasionally more formal. {{IPA|{{bracket|[[voiced bilabial stop|b]]}}}} is usually the bass drum, {{IPA|{{bracket|[[voiceless velar stop|k]]}}}} is usually the snare drum, and {{IPA|/[[voiceless alveolar affricate|ts]]/}} ({{IPA|[t͡s]}}) is usually the hi-hat (in {{music|time|4|4}}: 𝄆b-ts-k-ts-b-ts-k-ts𝄇).

In a research study published in 2013 and based on real-time [[MRI]] imaging of a beatboxer, the authors propose a notation system which combines the [[International Phonetic Alphabet]] with musical [[staff notation]], in part motivated by their observation that many beatboxing sounds can be adequately represented by the IPA.<ref name="Proctor2013">{{cite journal|author=Proctor, M.I.|author2=Bresch, E.|author3=Byrd, D.|author4=Nayak, K.|author5=Narayanan, S.|name-list-style=amp|title=Para-Linguistic Mechanisms of Production in Human "Beatboxing": a Real-time Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study|journal=[[Journal of the Acoustical Society of America]]|volume=133|issue=2|pages=1043–1054|doi=10.1121/1.4773865|year=2013|pmc=3574116|pmid=23363120|bibcode=2013ASAJ..133.1043P }}<!--|access-date=6 February 2013--></ref>
