Dear MuseScore team, I feel the old button _New All_ was superior to any visible options that might populate the panels. Its value was in its simplicity - combining as it did the essence of user desire.. both the *New* and the *All*!
I'm sure you all were so delighted by that feature to make it in your company mantra, so I think you've decided the world is not ready yet. This could explain why we've been left with the not so superior "Open all" button.
Brilliant. Thanks for concise tutorials
Thanks for captions!
Please add Copy Part Layout. This is one of the most important features for arrangers. Without it, it costs you hours on every arrangement.
It's there. Click the three dots to the right of the part name, and click "Duplicate".
@@JScaranoMusic Hey there JS Music! The problem is that when I duplicate the part, none of the formatting is duplicated with it - which is precisely the problem.
Is there a way to keep stems facing in the same direction (like those chords at 1:34), but still generate separate parts for each line?
But will it save the export options I've selected?! Obviously the superior option is to forget those, so I can have the joy of setting them everytime. This is a crucial feature (woe to those who might call it annoying, unnecessary, or just plain infuriating) as the joy of music composition is clearly to be found in the export menu.
The only reason many educators are still on Sibeilius is the "Copy Part Layout" feature. Does Musescore 4 now have this? If not, if you add it, tens of thousands of teachers will make the switch. Here is an example, If I'm making a sheet of short warmups for concert band, I can go to the flute part and put in all the line breaks and spacing that I want to look like a proper warmup page. In Sibeilius, I can then copy this work to all other parts in the score with a few clicks. This saves a ton of time as band scores tend to have a zillion instruments.
Yes. It's called "Duplicate". Click the three dots to the right of the part name in the Parts window.
Ive just started to use Musescore
It will obiuosly do anything I want it to (just write simple pop songs for one or two instruments)
But there is a big learning curve
Just starting with Musescore (4) and love it. Is there a way to create a piano reduction of an orchestral score?
where is the plugins placed? The plugin I used for the previous version worked but I cant find the other one. I tried the step by putting in in the Documents under the plugin section
I'm using a score imported from MS3 into MS4, and following the exact process for creating individual parts crashes MS4 at the very last step, hiding Voice 1 in the new Part.
Hi there: I have a simple question that is driving me crazy...
How can i merge 3 +1 into 4 bar system ? Thank you in advance.
I've had this one day and found over a dozen bugs or annoyances. Some of these may have simple fixes I just cannot find and I've looked.... but pertinent to this video...
When renaming instruments in the Instruments palette… the name doesn’t change in the Mixer or under the Parts menu so the same instrument can have 3 different names. I have found no way to change names in the Mixer.
When the order of instruments is changed in the Instruments palette, the staves reorder but the Mixer does not.
Is there a way to either combine instruments or split them apart? For example, say I have the flute 1 & 2 part that you had as an example split into different voices. but, I also wanted to do what you did with violin 1 and have violin 2 in that part. Can I have flute 1 and 2 separated in a score, despite being the same instrument? Alternatively, is there a way to make them separate then combine them for the main score?
Hello I have a question regarding the new parts design: Isn't it basically the sae view as the instruments panel? Why not just the "Open Selected" and "create new (empty) part" buttons into the instruments section? How I see it it would save an entire window.
The parts window allows you to choose which parts are open, copy a part, or create a new part. The instruments panel is specific to the part you are currently viewing, and allows you to choose which instruments (and which voices of each instrument) will appear on that part. It changes when you switch between windows to view a different part, to reflect what is visible on that part, whereas the parts window relates to the whole composition.
How do I extract separate parts from a full score PDF or IMSLP file?
How does one create a vocal score / simple organ/piano reduction , from a full score ?
I would just like a sheet of staff paper--no named instrument. I'm also unable to put 'Copyright' or its symbol in the footer box--only the year and name appear on the part.
I would love to see alignment beams to assist in Graphics, like you see in Apple Keynote. My Rehearsal letters often get displaced and I try to align them by sight, but its an arduous process.
Perhaps I'm using MuseScore inappropriately, but I really struggle creating learning resources currently with MS3. For example, I may want a line of music that extends only halfway across the page and with a block of text to its right. And if I want to later adjust the relative sizes that's a job-and-a-half in itself. Does MS4 support easier creation and editing of this sort of document? Does text wrap around in text boxes without having to manually enter line feeds?
Hey, I think for the spacing you just need the horizontal spacing option in the "Layout" pallet. When you then want to make changes later you can right click and "select all similar elements", then change the properties in the inspector for every spacer at the same time.
I think text boxes will also appear in later updates.
@@changein3d 👍
I've only done that kind of thing a couple times, but I usually just screenshot the music and put it in a Word doc
I write for classical guitar but I see where you cann only have 2 parts on a single staff where I need up to 6. Am I missing something?
Hello. How I can change a tempo?
Dear MuseScore team, how I can remove a single part? Thank you
Does this fix the craziness that happens on the final page where staves can be super far apart if only a few measures are used, instead of stacked the way they are on previous pages? It's so cheap looking when the final page is spread all over instead of just ending in a tidy way.
@@C4pt41nN3m0 What is a spacer? I want to try this and fix all the awful last pages I have.
@@TheRadioAteMyTV I think the tool you need is the "horizontal frame" in the "Layouts" palette.
I am still on 3, and someone showed me there is a setting for one of the updates to 3 that made it default to go wacky on the last page if you don't have a lot of measures, you have to tick it to turn it off - it was in the page settings. Thanks for your help though.
Hi, does anyone know how to increase the score proportions (i.e. make notes and bars bigger) on MuseScore 4? I teach young students and they find it easier to read large notes. Thanks in advance.
I finally figured it out- I pressed Format/ Page Settings/ Scaling/ Staff Space. Problem solved!
With the new parts, can I put multiple instruments into a single part and single staff? The most obvious example being musical theatre scores, especially reed parts, where the same player may play flute, clarinet, alto sax and bass clarinet at different times.
I want to write each part on each instrument so that I can transpose or adjust the part, but then when it is printed/exported, I want a single staff that transitions between instruments with instrument change text, and adjusted key signatures.
Play about and see if you can - luckily, musescore is an open source project that encourages community submissions. If this isn't possible currently, perhaps go to their site, check if this idea has already been proposed, and if not then propose it yourself!
yeah, go to text panel, then click "Change instr."
@@kotu_pnd4 Thanks. I just did a really basic test and it appears to work. I didn't expect it in the Text panel. Thanks!
Question - how does one export individual parts without the main score as a musescore file (not pdf). When I have a big main score (orchestra and choir), and I open up part scores they are still linked and I cannot edit the part scores without affecting the main score!
I thought that certain expressions should be copy pasted to each score and due to layout things, little things move like rehearsal marks. I have to go manually fix those things on the part score for the ease of reading of the player but obviously that affects the main score and moves it about on there also which is getting to be very frustrating.
I even saved each individual part along with the main score in the hope I could just delete the main score and manually edit the part score alone but it won't let me increase layout stretch etc. I'm getting very frustrated and there is nothing I can find online that actually works.
File save as does not work as it says on the website, I thought maybe a duplicate part would not be linked but it is.
Does anyone have any solutions for this? I'm sure a lot of people work from big scores, maybe I'm just doing things wrong in which case apologies but don't know where else to turn. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
We are going to be adding much better part / main score management in 4.1 and 4.2. In particular, the ability to change things in part scores without changing them in the main score.
How is it so hard to add pages???
please use a de-esser 👍
WOW! EXCELLENT ! I there a way to do the opposite. I mean, I Write two parts and I want to obtain a condensed staff ?
You mean two parts in the same staff? You can do this with different voices
@@changein3d Yes... But let say that I have 2 staves of Solo horn. Being able to make one unique staff for two horns from theses two staves would be cool.
@@cyrilcalmes4208 Ahh I think now I get it. In your example you could mark all the notes of Solo horn 1 and use voice 2 for them (green). Then you can copy and paste all the notes from solo horn 2 into 1 and you have one system with both. Is this what you were looking for?
@@changein3d Yes, but it's not as efficient. With 2 different voices, the stems are not in the same direction (wich can be the case with divisi), and you don't also take into account the divisi notation (a2, 1., 2., +1., +2.). Dorico Pro does it very well (even if it's not that intuitive...)
@@cyrilcalmes4208 Ahh okay, thanks for letting me know! I think I learned something
well that's nice but all I wanted to do is delete a part, and that seems to be impossible
son ölçüm, diğer ölçülere göre daha büyük oluyor, bunu çözemiyorum. lütfen yardım edin.
what about the distance of the between staffs, staves.....where must i go
"Style" under the Format menu.
@@JScaranoMusic but which one do i select?
1:59 Open all is the new New All
Music score frustration
@ 1:30 ...moving the handle does at first NOTHING. A suboptimal UI behaviour IMO...
Musescores 3 is still better than Musescores 4 because it crashes at every complex command such as separating voices...
We'll....I was all in until you skipped through the most pain in the rear part of MuseScore, which is page set-up to publish! You talked about the tools to use for moving staves, but only talked about one!!!! Not cool!
why is everything so unintuitive . Musescore sucks.
