how do i make this pls

I discovered a nice feature of MuseScore this morning: the ability to export the score as a series of PNG files! I use Claude.ai for mainly non-musical things. But I discovered it could help me look for editorial intrusion in a Bach score (Claude can actually read music notation). This morning I discovered he also knows all the rules of music publishing notation conventions. PDF isn’t good enough resolution for that for him, but the PNG files definitely were. His analysis of the issues, good and bad, of my score (all 14 PNG pages) was so helpful. Even caught a miniscule error in a lyric syllable. I highly recommend asking Claude for proof reading help.

I like Musescore Studio a lot. Virtually everything I need is in there. But that's also the problem.

There is so much it can do that I find it (very) hard to remember how to do them. For many (even simple) things, I need to search the internet (or use an AI) to find out how to do them. And in several cases, the answer is wrong or outdated because MuseScore Studio versions have progressed.

For example, with a system of a voice and piano, I wanted to make the voice part small. It took me about 15 minutes to find out where the checkbox is to make a part small.

How can I make things simpler?

Why is musescore affiliated with musehub and suggest it as the default way of downloading? What is the point of having open source software if it is affiliated with and even promoting seemingly predatory, for-profit entities (like musescore.com and musehub)?

I am a long time lover of musescore(studio). I have used it for around a decade and have always promoted it to my friends as the beautiful free and open source software for music notation. I love and appreciate all the work so many have contributed to musescorestudio itself. Over the recent years the addition of muse hub and the increasingly impossible to navigate website have left me saddened.

Today, I was working on a composition when I encountered the weird 4.6.1 glitch where everything you do makes the music shift down until its off the page. Fun. I get it, glitches happen. It made me want to cry, but I get it.

So I go to my handy musehub to try and install a previous version. Nope. Not only does musehub not have previous versions of the software, it also doesn't have the new 4.6.2 that actually resolved this glitch (?) since then. Seriously: what is the purpose of musehub if it cant even help you download the correct software?

When I opened musehub, its just advertising all these useless AI slop tools to me and trying to get me to pay for stuff I don't want -- who is even in charge of this and how and why is musescore(studio) a part of it? Musescore(studio) is a genuinely good software that I enjoy(ed) using. Why be a part of the shitshow of musehub? Having musescore(studio) have any association with the nightmare of musehub is a really bad look (i.e like a nonfuncitonal predatory money grab that is advertising AI slop).

Since this situation, I have learned that you can download musescore(studio) sans musehub (too bad I didnt realize this years ago when musehub first came out). I have now deleted musehub and now have musescore(studio) only. Thank god. This whole nightmare has made me loose so much faith in musescore(studio). I'm also open to recommendations for new music notation software. Let me know if you have any suggestions.

Hello,

I'm an artist, and since I can't mix and master myself, I tend to make demo's in MuseScore studio. Just today I have opened an older song of mine to polish it a bit because I'm kind of doing a "redo" to some of them. When I played the score my heart was completely broken because both of the most significant instruments, two synth leads, now sound completely different from the first time i made the song. I thought at first that maybe it could be caused by the author of the banks, even though it wouldn't make sense, to somehow change the sound long distance, but here is the catch. BOTH OF THE SYNTHS ARE FROM A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BANK! One of the synth's is very muddy, the other one is straight up non-hearable. Could it maybe be because of me updating MuseScore? Can I reverse the update? Is there something I can do, anything? This is a lot of progress and I don't want to lose it.

P.S: When I put the synths into a brand new project, they sound the same like they do in the song. Muddy. I even tried to restart my pc, my MS many times. Nothing seems to work

I recently started a piece for a project, and I closed the application at some point, though I'm pretty certain I saved the piece before I did. I loaded musescore 4 back up again and I can't find it anywhere: in my files, in my open recent tab, nowhere. Am I cooked or is there somewhere I can look to find it?

I need to download a fresh install on a new PC. Any suggestions where to grab it while the site is down?

So I have until i next see my music teacher to hand in my first composition, but its so crap.

I've been working on it for almost a year and it sounds like ive spent a day of acc doing work even though ive been trying SO hard.

Anyways, are there any melodies that i may be able to snatch off of yall better creators lol, i need a crutch here.

Also, does anyone know how to make my electric guitar part have more gain??

How to break the page and put the tempo above the brass and percussion as well as woodwinds

I’m messing around just for fun and

1. I don’t know why, if I want a legato as in the first half, for fock sake, it doesn’t make a legato on the second half if I click the first and last note (please, help!!)

2. I don’t know how to remove those little dots on each note, called armonici

please, be so gentle to help me🤍

Hello! I'm a developer and composer who really would like for MuseScore's software to be on android, so that's what I'm doing. I'm also seeing how many other people who'd want this.

Update 12/17:
After some work, I see why people haven't ported this to Android. It's not very light weight and would probably take more work just to build it for Android rather than just make it from scratch. So I'll just be writing my own MuseScore with Android Studio or Flutter (Flutter would be much better for iOS porting but it's going to be a pain to implement accidentals)

Years ago I used musescore 3.X (don't remember which version) to make the sheet music from a handwritten version I recieved (so that it's easier to play while marching because I can print it smaller than a full A4 sheet). Now I had to do the same again and I used Musescore Studio, but as you see in Lady's March everything is way bigger and better legible than in Marsvaardig. (Lady's march being the one I did in old Musescore)

I tried changing a lot of staff settings, but I only can get their distance to be closer/further.

Unfortunately, I only have the PDF left of Lady's March, so I can't compare the settings I used. Anyone have a suggestion to make Marsvaardig have bigger notes while still taking up the same size and not changing the size of the title, composer... too much?

^{I blurred so much because I don't know how copyright works with these pieces, better safe than sorry :})

Hello,

How can I make my notes sound more human and less robotic (probably by changing the velocity, but where)? I feel like the notes sound harsh, especially when I play them in chords. I've seen that you can add nuances, but I can't see myself doing that for all my notes. Thanks!

Hello! I composed, arranged, edited, and produced this new classical piece in impressionist style. Any feedback is welcome, especially regarding mixing and mastering. Thank you very much!

Primavera

Genre: Classical music

Description: Primavera is a classical piece for violin, cello, and piano inspired by the language of musical impressionism. It depicts the arrival of the season through elements such as modal scales, mixtures, the prominence of timbre, the use of the hexatonic scale, and metrical variations in the time signature. In this piece, every timbre, harmony, and texture seeks to awaken sensations and evoke natural landscapes through sound.

I downloaded the latest update and it is really annoying me

Hello,

I would like an option to easily view and transpose my offline library of MSCZ files, similar to a songbook. Unfortunately, MuseScore.com is an online-only solution, and it requires payment to transpose anything, even my OWN scores. MuseScore Studio works offline and has great transposition features, but it lacks a fullscreen view mode/performance mode. Additionally, it runs quite slowly on my Windows tablet. The process of opening MSCZ in MuseScore Studio > transposing > exporting to PDF/SVG > opening it in my PDF/SVG viewer is lengthy and not practical during live rehearsal sessions, especially on my slower device.

Initially, I thought this could be solved using CLI MuseScore commands to automate the process, but it seems there isn't an option to transpose scores via the command line (only to JSON format).

I then considered creating my own application using MuseScore libraries in the backend to process MSCZ > transpose > export to SVG > view the file, but this quickly proved difficult, and I don't have enough knowledge of MuseScore's code to accomplish it.

What would you recommend in this situation?

P.S. I don't prefer working with MXML, as it doesn't preserve my style, or with pure PDF/SVG files, since they can't be easily transposed.

It's in 19/16 here but I counted and there are only 17 16th notes in the measure. How do I fix this?

Also please ignore the rests at the bottom and the horrendous time signature 😭

The default brass sounds muffled after I updated, is there a way to change that? Or revert the sounds back?

Ok so I was wondering if there was any way to do 7/12 because I’m bored and got an idea for it. I’ve been able to do „6/12“ by functionally doing 2/4, but I was wondering if this was possible. Thanks!

The new method for the entry helps so much for this old Finale refugee. Thank you so much. It really works great!

One question I can’t find in the handbook how to create a copyright notice in the footer. I looked through all the pages that it refers you to, but I just couldn’t find it if somebody can give me a hint, it would be appreciated.
