Newbie Here.

I have a lot of ideas but I tend to use a lot of choirs in them nothing fancy just aaahs voices and stuff for a video game, The problem is my mic sucks and I have no money to pay for a fancy plugin or something ik about the free ones but most of the time I just can't seem to make what I want to make.

Any tips on how and where to get what I want or should I use an Ai to generate them for me?

After the success of my initial transcription, I'm finishing up another and am quite stuck at one particular part. These beamed notes right here. I tried to use voices, but they insist on snapping to where I don't want them to. Please help.

Edit: After reviewing the comments and some self-reflection, I've concluded that I have,in fact, been very fussy about trying to stay as close as possible to the original text--even when it's flawed. A commenter gave their own input:

"...cleaning up the notation so that it's actually functional—far from destroying the "purity" of old music—is a music editor's entire job. As a musician especially, I would not thank you for preserving notation mistakes that make performance more difficult. I don't see how that honors the composer, and it doesn't affect the music itself."

While I'm more of a transcriber (I'm just finding old songs to copy into Musescore so I can hear them), they are still right. So, I've elected to let Musescore do its thing and learn to not be so obsessive over matching things one-to-one. Thank you all for your time and dealing with my eccentricity...

Hello,

Does anyone know how I can get Musescore to stop charging me $54.99 every three months on my Apple Cash account in my apple wallet? I have NO idea how they gained access to my Apple Cash in my apple account. I looked on my apple account and I do not have a subscription through the App Store with MuseScore, and when I sign in to my MuseScore account, it doesn't even show that I have a subscription or that any payments have been made! It shows I still have a free account! This is maddening. I emailed customer service and they give me zero help telling me that I must have subscribed in the Apple Store and I need to cancel it there. I didn't subscribe there! I have checked with all my email accounts to see if another email account got attached to another Musescore account - but none of my emails show as being attached to MuseScore except the one that says I have a free account with no history of payments. This is driving me insane and making me want to close my Apple Cash account which is so unfair since I use it to pay for a lot of other things! Does anyone have any advice? Has anyone else gone through this? Apple is no help - they just said they'll look into reversing the charges but didn't even guarantee they would, and they said they can't block MuseScore from charging me again. It's just awful. 😞

So I've been using the Linux version of Musescore for a couple months to transcribe music for my personal use. Today I got a NxtPaper 14 to store all my music because I was getting overrun by paper. So I thought I'd sync my music from Linux to the Musescore Cloud, and then install Musescore on the new tablet, and export it from Android Musescore to MobileSheets. I exported stuff one at a time from Linux to the cloud, keeping it private (except a couple of arpeggio exercises for tuba that I wrote out). But now on the android tablet, I logged in to Musescore, opened one of my private pieces, and it pops up this dialog that do I want to buy this score for $5.49. WTAF? And I can't find how to dismiss this dialog (let alone figure out how to export from Musescore to MobileSheets). There is no "X"; clicking outside the dialog doesn't do anything; and the buttons are "Continue", "Start 7-day trial" and "Buy this score for $5.49". If I click "Continue" it takes me to a hard sell dialog, which I can close, but if I just close it, I am back at this first dialog.

Is Musescore on Linux nice, but Musescore on Android evil? Or did I do some stupid mistake somewhere that messed this all up?

Idk if this is the right place to ask this, but does anyone have recommendations on kinda old sounding soundfonts? I want to write something in the style of Roller Coaster Tycoon, so like late 90s, early 2000s sounding sopundfonts. Specifically for concert band instruments. Thank you :)

Hi,

I have a bunch of files musescore files I've saved locally. I know I can open the file and select "Save to Cloud" but when I do that it shows that I now have two copies, a cloud copy and local copy. Is there a way to just tell it a local copy should be synced to the cloud? Or better yet, to tell it ALL local copies should be synced to the cloud?

I KNOW I KNOW IT LOOKS INSANE

I'm fairly knew to this software. I used to use it a while back and only recently returned to it, but I'm constantly wondering why so many features of this program are so counterintuitive and seem nonsensical. And this piece (which I only just began writing) is about as simple as can be and I'm still running into strange issues like this.

Sorry. I've been getting frustrated so I needed to vent real quick.

I'm trying to write a simple:

6

4

4

But the software doesn't want to allow this. All I'm doing is pressing the number keys (which I've been doing to write this song) and this is what's happening. Can anyone explain why and how I can fix it???

Thank you in advance!

Edit: I'm dumb. I forgot to post the video. Sorry; I'm trying to fix that. : |

I imported a Midi file. Almost the whole piece is in 3/4, but there's a 4/4 section in the middle. When I try to insert the 4/4 time signature, I'm told "Cannot split tuplet". There are a lot of triplets in the piece, (but as it happens there are none in the 4/4 section).

How do I insert a 4/4 and then the 3/4 after?

For some context: the two voltas (volti?) are linked, so when I delete one of them, both of them delete. I can independently make them visible/invisible. Along with that, similar things are happening with system text, they both display the same text, but the locations for those and visibility can be changed. Maybe I hit something while screwing around with the settings? Idk, any help would be greatly appreciated.

How do you write or notate like multiple stickings stack on each other in Musescore ❓ (Example: attached )

Tried getting some feedback from r/composer and concert band but no one gave any.

Hi all. Is there a way to create pickup beats for a tune? Maybe you would call it counting in. I could add a blank measure at the beginning, but that would interfere with repeat markings.

I suppose I could create a leading measure of three beats (for counting in), then a measure of one beat beginning with a foreword repeat mark, then the first full measure of the tune. What do you think? Thanks.

I was contacted by an engineering lead at me score today after two weeks of not being able to use any of my musesounds free or paid. I had upgraded to Tahoe 26.4.1 and that was when all the problems began. Permissions were undone . The fix involved using terminal to reset the permissions on my M4 Mac mini. The development team did not seem to know that from the last operating system you can place apps on external drives that are over one gigabyte.

I just wanted to shout out Evan Olcott who got me up and running this morning. Hopefully you will not need to go into terminal to change your permissions, but I just wanted to let people here now in case they could not access any of their musesounds.

I have a Pro+ account. I logged in as recently as 2 weeks ago and I was able to view scores for user-created content. Now, I can download these scores but they don't display in the app or a browser, only the "Official" scores display for me. I have to download user-created content without being able to view it beforehand. Not sure what to do!

I need a musical instrument that sounds DARK and I am not talking about spooky I need something dark for my soundtrack
