    Another thing to add to this:
    Virtually all musesound instruments play legato by default. If you want a more detached performance, put mezzo staccato (tenuto+staccato) for each note to cut the legato transition. For the ensemble strings, using the mezzo staccato may not achieve a strong attack and would sound portato. If you want a more detache effect, use the accent mark.

    Thanks for this remarkable tutorial. That will improve my Musecore sounds a lot. You deserve more subscribers. Keep up the good work.

    Thank you for this great tutorial ! Very helpfull. Articulations and dynamics are a problem in musescore, and this helps a lot.

    I already did this by exporting the parts as WAV files and editing it in a DAW, but it's great to know that most of the work can be done in MuseScore (including some I hadn't thought of). This will let me work in my preferred software a lot more, make my music sound a lot better, and save a LOT of storage space on my laptop. Thanks!

      That's something I've considered doing in Cubase. I definitely think you could get better results by importing all the parts and mixing from there, but I always use the method outlined in the video for time's sake. Thanks for your comment!

      ​@@paulalcazar I'm still going to do both, but there's a lot you can do in MuseScore that you can't do after the audio has been rendered, some of which I hadn't even considered before this video. Also, having already done a lot of the work in MuseScore will make the DAW work a lot faster and easier, so thanks again for making this video!

    you also can put a ''louré'' (articulations) to avoid the unwanted portamento instead of an accent if you don't want that emphasys of the accent. In a future Muse Sounds will sound so great. EDIT. It doesn't work always, it's weird it's like it works only in some notes

    Very good video thank you. I have a bug with some woodwinds, if i play "p" and change to "f" one or two bars after it changes the "p" sample sound.

      Is the problem a sudden dynamic shift from piano to forte?

      @@paulalcazar No. I play "C D E" piano. After i play "F G A" forte. So now when i listen to "C D E" it plays forte sample with lower volume it seems instead of playing piano. Oh and congrats for your works.

      @@pristian One thing you could try is placing a piano marking on a rest before the measure you want played piano. If you need further assistance you can send me an image of the issue at my email address (under channel info). Thanks!

    I went in to my MuseScore4 it does not have the same reverb options you have. There is just a dial. I have 4.2 and the mixer just doesn't look like yours. So I got my hopes up, but no. There is no properties either in my version. You find explode under tools. So I am not sure how to follow some of your instructions as they don't correspond to what I'm looking at. Is there a newer version? I'm confused.

    Hello, Paul! How are you? I have a question about the playback of glissandos. I saw in this video a solution for the problem I have, the portamenti glissando for the strings, I changed the style as you said, but now the playback just don't play the glissando. What can I do to fix it?

    • @javmbz_schlithler
      @javmbz_schlithler 15 днів тому

      I mean, listening carefully it kinda does it, but it holds most of the time in the first note and slides quickly to the next. I saw that in MS 3 it was possible to change that, to make a smoother slide across the full extention of the note value. Can it be done in this new version?

    • @paulalcazar

      @@javmbz_schlithler I've found that MuseScore doesn't like to play the glissando/portamento on certain notes. This is probably because of the way the samples were recorded. Strangely, sometimes adding no glissando/portamento at all actually has the reverse effect. It also depends on the range: for example, you may be out of luck with minor second intervals. You could also email me a screenshot of the problem.
