Wooo engraving!!!

Terrible voice over. Terrible.

The beaming thing bugs me as well. Another peeve is accidentals. Here is an example from a score given to me: key-Bbm, 16th note sequence-Ab F# Fn F# Fn Eb.

🎶 Hello musical friends! 🎶 🎵 Are you frustrated working in MuseScore? This video may give some reasons why! Once you learn more about MuseScore, the better you will get at the program! Have a wonderful, musical day!

Hello musical friends! I think MuseScore can do something really interesting in the future if they decide to create a music publishing company. Do you think they can create a publishing company? I think it is possible. Have a wonderful, musical day!

Can Dorico handle symphonic scores, simultaneous odd tuplets, Time signature changes, tablature, Freely spaced chord changes and nonstandard chord spellings?

I know this video post is older, but my comment is for those curious of NotePerformer who is not yet convinced. Follow the link here and discover the magic of NotePerformer. I cannot recall any VST sounding like a recording like this. The music in the linked video was produced by Dorico 5.1 Pro driving NotePerformer 4.5.0. (NO affiliation) The music performance can still be tweaked using Dorico's MIDI lanes, but the listener will definitely hear how NotePerformer is not this 'in-between', medium quality VST as some claims. NotePerformer has a lot of power, if one knows how to use its magic! 🙂 ua-cam.com/video/QfHQ5ZM4BaE/v-deo.html

I have heard from music teachers: 30 years ago, every A-level student used Sibelius. Not a single A-level student for the last three years has used it. Add to that the cost of MuseScore (it’s free) and preferring the use of MuseScore for recreation, as I do, becomes a total no-brainer.

You forgot to mention that Musescore supports microtonal music, harp notations, exotic notations(such as different types of accidentals from different regions of the world), can load VST3s, and much more to discover.

The biggest issue I have with 4 over 3 is that when I'm writing for piano, which is usually what I write for, I can't make the left hand and right hand have different dynamics. I can visually, but audibly, they won't be independent. This was not an issue in Musescore 3.

Yo chill ass video. Thanks for making it only three minutes. Quick and easy. SO many mfs on this site make long ass tutorials for stuff that could be explained in a couple minutes like this

I've learned over the past ten years or so not to bet against open source software. Roughly 90% of my program bar in Windows is now open source (I regard REAPER as open source adjacent). So I've been running MS alongside Sib since version 3. I've tended to use it for smaller simpler projects. The one thing Martin and the crew have to do urgently imo is introduce "to picture" functionality. While I only work to picture occasionally I can see that most people nowadays do virtually nothing else. There's some benefit to it from an educational perspective as the visuals provide a stimulus - you just have to remember to write more than mood cliches and not run away with the idea that you're the next Williams or Zimmer...

It’s actually a bit worse than that. Even if you try to cancel the free trial through the trial period you can’t. The steps they provide to end the trial require clicking on “Subscriptions” in a drop down menu, except it isn’t there.

You missed a very important one. Your musical handwriting conveys a sense of your personality just as your handwriting does and this has an impact on the reader. This happens on lots of subtle levels but two to bear in mind are a) if your musical handwriting conveys a sense of confidence musicians reading it will feel more confident in the music itself and b) if your musical handwriting is clear it gives the impression that you have a lot of experience writing music.

I've used Sibelius for nearly 30 years but I recently started running this and 90% of the time it does everything I need it to, even on full orchestral pieces. I also don't need to jump through hoops to switch the Sib license over every time I get a new PC (which I'm sure is deliberate discouragement since Avid bought it). I've learned over recent years never to bet against open source software and this is very nearly there. The only drawbacks are no "to picture" functionality and no compatibility with NotePerformer (still the best playback engine). I'd be extremely surprised if at least the first of these isn't top of the developers' list - I only occasionally score to picture but nowadays it's all that most people do, even only as hobbyists. And a hobby is the first step to a profession. But perhaps they're holding off on that until they can be totally sure of playback timings. As to "industry standard" there will always be issues of course - I've encountered all four scoring programs in my professional dealings but for now the situation remains "big two plus another two". But more and more professionals are using things like this and REAPER (not open source but open source adjacent), or at least they have them installed and are capable of working with them. I think newer open source programs have what you might call "last mover advantage". The established big boys have been built over many years in a "bolt on" fashion and there's no incentive to completely rewrite the code. In addition, a lot of their research is already done for them - users' needs and preferences, compatibility and so forth. Open source software also leverages standard open formats over proprietary ones. And in my experience modern Music XML does have the capacity to encode everything that's needed.

I'm still working on MuseScore 3.6 for most of the things. MuseScore 4 is very slow on my system, at least when I apply modifications to the score I'm working on. So I'm using MuseScore 4 only for the things it's very good at : MuseSounds and automatic layout.

Music snobbery is truly alive and well it seems. Very sad to see.

"Sibelius is known for its intuitive and user-friendly interface" LOL what a joke. Is this video AI or something? Sibelius sucks and is notoriously poorly laid out. Those screenshots are of musescore 3 which is a wildly different application than musescore 4. and at 2:56 and 4:41 why are we showing a picture of musescore 4 when talking about sibelius? did you do any research at all or just put some vague prompt into chat gpt?

I'm running MuseScore4 on a 15 year old PC just fine. (It was a midrange gaming PC at the time I bought it). MuseSounds on the other hand stutters like crazy. I need to export the audio if I want to listen to playback. Still a miracle that it even works on my ancient hardware, though.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the Musescore score sharing website. It's absolutely janky, and the jank feels strategic. However, based on my understanding, the Musescore Studio team and the Musescore score sharing service team are two different teams entirely. I don't mean like two teams under one boss, I mean each are their own thing--that's my interpretation that is.

I think you have to appreciate that the core purpose of this kind of software has always been professional engraving and many musicians struggle because they may be used to reading professionally produced scores but not writing them. When having to deal directly with the pictorial layout system they find themselves confronted with a raft of considerations they've previously taken for granted. So my controversial tip to aid learning any notation software is to put a bit of time into practicing scoring by hand. Most of us can and do actually still work much faster this way, but then we copy the results over for further work. Or not if it isn't necessary. Sketch on paper then move onto the canvas.

Hi... I'm a drummer and just want to give you, other musicians and UA-cam Video makers some friendly advice when making UA-cam videos with Audio Standards for different platforms. Your video audio level is way below standard and playback on my WIN8.1 PC is very low and would be very low on MACs, Tablets, Mobile phones etc. UA-cam, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music etc etc... all have their Audio Standard LUFs to be applied to music recording playbacks and video audio levels (motion pictures etc). Please Google "what does lufs mean in audio or what are LUFs? ..... and the answer: LUFS stands for Loudness Units relative to Full Scale or Loudness Units Full Scale (i.e., the maximum level a system can handle.) It's a standardized measurement of audio loudness that factors human perception and electrical signal intensity together. How did I find out what your LUF level was in your video? By Right clicking on your video and selecting "Stats for Nerds"... to the right of "Volume / Normalized" ... (content loudness - 24.8dB)... your video is -22.8dB below UA-cam Audio Standards making it difficult to hear. The best Audio level to try and obtain would be -1dB to -2dB (True Peak Max). The UA-cam Audio Standard "Loudness Target" is -14 LUFS in which gets you close to the True Peak max. If your UA-cam video is above standard (e.g +3.5dB)... The UA-cam video algorithms will lower it automatically... however if the uploaded UA-cam video audio is very low similar to your YT video... the YT algorithm just leaves it as it is... a very low volume level that you and your YT viewers do not want. How do I do this?.. setting the right audio levels?... The best software I found is... "Youlean Loudness Meter"... FREE and PRO version$ Works in almost any DAW: FL Studio, Logic Pro X, Final Cut Pro X, Ableton Live, Reaper, Cubase, Pro Tools… I use it in Ableton 10 as a plugin... Ok... but what about Video editing software? I use Adobe Premier Pro and these LUFS can be set as default audio levels when video editing. The best UA-cam tutorial i found for LUF settings in Premier: How to set your Audio Levels for UA-cam | Premiere Pro CC Loudness Radar The best UA-cam tutorials i found for LUF settings in "Youlean Loudness Meter": I Use This Plugin On Every Mix and Master - Youlean Loudness Meter 2 Pro (In the Mix - YTchannel has over 1M subscribers) or UA-cam Loudness Mastering Guide for 2024 Hope that helps! :)... also a suggestion/request for a video would be "What is the best Drum Notation software" that displays the drum score notes with a moving cursor or bar that follows the music when played and how to apply it to a video drum lesson (for e.g. a person playing drums and a note score overlay with a moving cursor following the beat)... I know Sibelius does, but I ain't paying for it. I use Guitar Pro 8 and NCH Crescendo Music Notation Software.

I've used Sibelius (full version) for nearly 30 years, because it was first at the only game in town and later the best. The situation has been changing though. Sib has always been challenging to learn and use (it's never quite shaken off its origins as a pure engraving tool). It's also become clear that since AVID bought it, development has all but ceased - it's merely supported while they focus on Finale. And the registration process has become deliberately cumbersome, which is a serious consideration when upgrading computers. Many of the people I work with have recently been advocating Dorico. However, since MuseScore was updated to version 4 it's in the running. It does still have drawbacks - occasional stability issues, no "to picture" facility and no compatibility with NotePerformer. To all of these, I'd append the word "yet" and add that there were times when the others had these issues as well. Personally, I've learned never to bet against open source software. There is of course the issue of collaborative use - so if that's a concern it will make your choice for you. However, it's also worth asking yourself whether the proprietary bells and whistles are actually necessary for what you do. If software is the flesh of open source then a universal format is its lifeblood and all of these can import and export as MusicXML, granted without fully standardised results. And I don't think I'm paranoid in thinking that some of them are deliberately not very good at it for commercial reasons... If anyone wants my advice it would be to focus on your current requirements since means of use can always be learned. If you're a beginner or intermediate musician I'd recommend MuseScore on cost grounds because it will grow as you do. If you require professional complex large scoring facilities right now I'd go for one of the others - however, Sib is still the most widely used, so if you're going to need to work with others on editing and preparing parts it's still the one that everyone knows even if they prefer others. And to round it all out, I'm currently running Sib and MuseScore, using the latter when it's all I need. For instance, lead sheets and shorter scores for smaller ensembles, although it's also alright for full orchestra, you just have to work in shorter chunks for now. Which I'd argue isn't a bad thing in terms of working focus anyway.

technologically-abled people (as in, someone who knows what reddit is) typing in their credit card information for a free trial and then forgetting to cancel it are always funny

The best one is Musescore for me personally because it's available to everyone. If you want to hear the full potential of the Musescore engine, then I encourage you to check out the music on my channel! 🔷

Quick tip for anyone wanting to get a piece from musescore: it only takes at most a couple hours to simply copy it into the program manually note-for-note, even for large ensembles

hopefully it does get a revamp. Their obscurity in their prices really annoys me xD. Also, maybe it's besides the point, but I'd like to point out that when the website asks you for your instrument of choice, the electric bass option never shows up! I always end up choosing the 'another instrument' option :v. They should check that, as well.

Lilypond is goated, but one must know not to shoehorn for something it was never intended. For prototyping musescore has playback sounds, lilypond is just a notation tool. Imho org mode emacs + lilypond codesources is an unbeatable combo to mix text and music snippets in a good visual way

I don't understand why screenshots of older versions of Muse Score were used, as opposed to only screenshots of MuseScore 4.

No humans did that themselves already, the bar is low.

They said largely the same kinds of things over John Cages works, as he was pioneering tape manipulation techniques that ultimately led to our modern implementation of looping and sampling.

I don’t think so, I’m afraid. You’re never going to stop those who would choose to be formulaic by putting in effort for yourself. And frankly you shouldn’t even care about what others are doing. Neither should you hold yourself to some arbitrary standards. Expressing yourself is not something that is limited solely to manual composers. It never has been, but now more so with digital tools it’s been possible to generate beautiful music using set parameters to constrain the output within listenable ranges for more than 3 decades now. Nothing has changed but the method, the flexibility and the variety of results have been upgraded with more advanced parameters.

Hello Musical Friends! is AI ruining music? How so? Let us know in the comments below! Have a wonderful, musical day!

Most objections seem to relate to playback quality. I thought composers used a notation software so that their music could be actually played by musicians, but I was obviously mistaken ;-).

I dont think it'll necessarily take *that* long. Theres a *lot* of frusturation out there about Sibelius (Tantacrul's video is a pretty good distilation of why. Its powerful, but it'll torture you to access that power even with a lot of experience) , plus Dorico has shown that its at least *possible* to disrupt the old duopoly of finale and sibelius.

🎶Hello musical friends! 🎶 🎼What program do you like more, MuseScore or Noteflight? 🎼Why do you prefer that program? 🎼Share your experiences in the Comments below! 🎵 Have a wonderful, musical day! 🎵

Noteflight is HOT GARBAGE in terms of music making, you cannot change my mind. - You can barely make anything before it breaks your computer. - Instruments sound horrible. - Terrible viewing layout. - No way for new creators to be seen without very popular creators that follow them. So if you start out you're probably not going to have much feedback/views at all. It is the equivalent to Scratch for coding video games. It is simple, good for beginners, and you receive feedback. But it is practically impossible to make real good music. I myself started with Noteflight for my first year (I still use it), and I stayed only because of the community (the people there are really friendly). The community is very small (probably less than 100 active users), so most of the times it will be the same people looking at your scores, which can be helpful in guiding you. And even though Noteflight is practically dead, people still make very different genres of music (classical, edm, orchestral, etc.), which you can take inspiration from. Or you can just observe how the more advanced composers do things so you can learn more. It used to be such a good site, but as Hal Leonard updated it it became worse and worse, from the navigation to score sharing. I remember an update from last year halved the active users in the already dead site. My conclusion is, if you want to actually make music, don't use Noteflight. Use literally anything other than Noteflight. However, if you are just making stuff as a hobby or you are a beginner, definitely start there. There are very helpful people there. If you make it clear that you want to improve to some people there, I'm sure they will gladly help.

I use Musescore, but in it doesn’t works on ipad, so i’m starting to learn dorico too

FOLLOW THE DOLLAR AND THAT! IS THE SOFTWARE TO USE The Recording Industry Is Aligned With The Digital Keyboard Industry And THAT Is Where Recording Artist Write Their Music. ALL Digital Audio Workstations (Keyboards) and ALL DAW Software Recording Programs COME WITH A COMPOSING NOTATION SOFTWARE That Is Already In Practice Across The Major Players. With You Are A COMPOSER Buy A Digital Keyboard Workstation ($2000 to $5000) and Every time You Strike A Note Te Software Will Place It On Your Score In the KEY You Are Playing In, It Will Set and Change Automatically Your Time Signature, EVERYTHING AS YOU PLAY Is Automated. DIGITIZE and QUANTIZED!! AUTOMATICALLY. Any Recording Studio, Any Publisher, Any Artist Can Work With You And Its ALREADY ESTABLISHED ON A GLOBAL SCALE!

Any notation program that does not include swing playback is less than useless fpr big band arrangers.

Seems like a MAGA company. Whine, whine, whine. Listen to your non-customers and give us what WE need...

One BIG issue (for jazz players) is the lack of swing options. I will not write a blues in 12/8 just to get the feel on playback. Has that changed since I last looked? I'd love an option, Sibelius is useless for "instant idea" composition, almost ALWAYS ti forces an update or system ID check even when it does not affect the app. And the idea has long gone...

I thought this video would be about why people are still using MuseScore 3! Contrarily, you seem to suggest that MuseScore 3 holds MuseScore 4 back. :/

*angry Tantacrul noises*

Musescore is amazing!!!
