Have to add: Although #MuseScore has a #Linux version, it only supports their own free sounds. So I won't be able to use sounds I bought (maybe there is some fishy workaround, which brings me back to the hours of dread^^). I don't need those very often but if so, they better be good. Also, MuseScore is still rather semi-professional in terms of features/engraving and while #Lilypond is great for engraving music, composing/arranging with it is a PITA (yes, even with IDE). #music #notation #FOSS

I love Linux and everyday users (web, office, gaming) will be totally fine switching. But combine a big proprietary Win-only software you need for work, dealing with audio and needing licensing (so neither standard wine nor VM are sufficient) and you are in for hours and hours of dread (even with my at least decent Linux experience). I'm very short of "it'd be faster if I just retype every note I ever wrote in #Lilypond and try to put up with #MuseScore in the future" ;) #music #UnplugBigTech

Currently on a test phase for migrating to #Linux. Looks good so far, but I'm still struggling with my need for #music #notation #software. #MuseScore runs just fine, but MuseHub is not available for Linux. Instead only a limited version is provided which just lets you install the free (okayish) Muse sound fonts (not the really good ones I happened to buy a few months back on Windows). Since MuseScore also doesn't support VST3 plugins, this is a real bummer. #FOSS #opensource (1/2)

5 #PositiveDinge gestern
- ein Urlaubstag, zwar wg. Handwerkerarbeiten an der Elektrik und dadurch keinem Strom für das "mobile" Heimarbeiten, aber doch nicht schlecht, so Mitte der Woche mal frei zu nehmen
- #Fingersatz für die rechte Hand ausgedacht, für eine schwierige Passage, die nun viel besser läuft #Gitarre
- Lesen
- etwas die freie Zeit genutzt, um ein Notenzitat (für einen neuen Blogbeitrag) mit #Musescore zu setzen, wobei ich die Software immer etwas mehr kennenlerne
-Pizza bestellt

I am amused (in a very nerdy way) that in #MuseScore I can input the note B using the H key.

(FWIW this is one of the default keyboard shortcuts. All keyboard shortcuts are editable in the Preferences. So even if you have an older version you can add this in or otherwise tweak things yourself if you'd like.)

Je ne lis pas la musique mais les partitions sous linux, c'est
- #Denemo
- #Lilypound
- #Musescore

Je crois que tu chercges plus un lecteur #ePub / #PDF avec défilement paramétrable, non ?

Je suis tombé (sans le connaître) sur #SheetMusicViewer
github.com/calvinhsia/SheetMus…

Sinon le classique #Evince

Bonne chance !

@celesteh I've being doing some reading up on this. There's several mentions in the help pages.

The link seems to be the most relevant but the problem is, that it doesn't say which version of MS it refers to, and WHERE to find this setting:

"MIDI isn't a notation format and doesn't record duration in "notation"-like terms, only in "ticks", which allows for much precision in the playback but would result in completely unreadable notation if a program tried to literally display a note with a duration of say, 459/480 of a beat. So all notation programs round off durations to values that make sense notationally.
⬇️ ⭐
Dotted eighth followed by sixteenth rest is not normally encountered in standard notation - it's normally notated as just a quarter - so that's part of the rounding MuseScore performs.

If you prefer to see less aggressive rounding, you can turn off simplify durations - be sure to then hit Apply, though (merely toggling the checkbox doesn't take effect immediately). "

Ok, apparently musicXML works....

I fucking hate #musescore

@celesteh #musescore

whilst it's becoming generally "cleverer" -- do we need this from a music-engraver-cum-player -? -- I do find that the later editions are become /slightly/ enshittified.

not to mention that in adding new things they keep breaking old things. I've been on it since V1.

[ before you go on to the suggestion below, have a go at this quicker fix: GIVE EACH OF YOUR DOTTED QUAVERS A STACCATO ', or even staccatissimo ^ ..... I think this has fixed other issues for e in the past] ... reason, many instruments may be letting the note ring-on after the marked length

I suggest you go back a few releases and check if this was happening back then.

I've made a few attempts to unpick midi and make it into readable notation over the years, but it's usually stuff like joining long strings of tied notes.

A work around could be inserting a demi-semi-quaver -- here I get the point of US terminology -- a 32nd note with the amplitude property set to 0. You could probably give it a custom note head and hide the rest in you notation to make it understandable.

[British English can be found in paragraph 2] When I export a Muse Score file as a midi file, and then re-open the midi file in muse score, I find that my dotted 8th notes which are followed by rests have become quarter notes.

When I export a Muse Score thing as a midi file, and then re-open the midi file in muse score, I find that my dotted quavers which are followed by rests have become crotchets.

This is actually a huge problem. I need those rests to give time for organ pipes to close before they re-open.

How can I get my score out of MuseScore into a MIDI file that has the note values that I've written??

#MuseScore #Midi #LinuxAudio

It never did unfreeze.

In the 5 minutes it took to make tea, I downloaded and started using #musescore on a laptop running Ubuntu.

Friend of mine uses it constantly and raves about it. I've never tried til now but so far, it seems small and fast. First impression: excellent.

@ambergrey

musescore is also a notation program. I used it in one of my projects because finale wouldn't allow the varying bar lengths my composition required.

The cool thing about the musescore notation software is that you can write text files that musescore converts to notation meaning that you can write programs that write text files that musescore can convert to notation.

Creating a #tacet part in #MuseScore is hacky and complicated!

Bonjour ! Pour cette nouvelle année Hack(ing muse)Score fait du rangement.
Si vous n'êtes pas encore abonné(e) à la lettre d'information pour vivre sa musique librement, vous ne bénéficiez donc pas de la bibliothèque de ressources mise à disposition de chaque lecteur 😥.
Il n'est pas trop tard pour vous rattraper !

Bonne année !

Pancartes de direction avec les valeurs de Hacking Musescore : découvrir, comprendre, apprendre, expérimenter...

I once started paying for #MuseScore to be able to download any score from them once that was no longer available for everyone. Back then, I should already have known that biz models progress only in one direction: #Enshittification.
