NOTATIO

I haven't written music in it but I've worked with some of its scores by exporting to PDF and XML. Full measure rests aren't supported - for example, a piece in 3/4 will have three quarter rests in every empty measure. PDF files are generated without margins and there is no page layout mode in the e...

I've only tried a couple of things, and the results are 'in line with most other OMR software I've tried'. Hopefully, it will improve. That's actually just a frontend for Audiveris, a third party (open source) OMR library. I don't hold on to any such hope myself, and one of the main MuseScore devel...

And MuseScore 3.1 was officially released last week: https://musescore.org/en/3.1 It has the vaunted single note (de)crescendo which I'm really happy about, and more of Tantacrul's remarks were addressed in the meantime. You can now adjust spacing by dragging notes left and right, but it's a bit fin...

I would not be impressed if you gave me a newly engraved partbook with this font to read. Well technically it's newly typeset, not newly engraved ;) OK, point taken regarding unneeded skeuomorphism and the superiority of scores. Scores are possible but very impractical due to the need for blank pie...

Ah, sorry, I didn't notice this thread and made one elsewhere, with an example: http://notat.io/viewtopic.php?f=7&p=6395 Apart from me geeking out, it would be very useful in case you composed something that you wanted to have performed in a Renaissance HIP style; it puts singers in the right mo...

I figured you people would be interested in this. The extremely awesome Early Music Sources project has released a font that mimics the look and workflow of late Renaissance typesetting, "for better or for worse" (mostly for worse, I think). It's fairly easy to use thanks to the use of lig...

Interesting this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hZxo96x48A (ps. warning: to much intensive, but some of the points well done). I love that video. Aside from the extremely long section on iconography, it's a great video to show someone what MuseScore is about. And as someone who did classical stu...

MuseScore can do this too in the sense that style settings are not synchronized between score and parts after you've added the parts. The style menu has an "apply to all parts" button when inside a part, but not when changing things on the score. Something like the Lilypond mechanism would...

Here's a recent, original composition (not by me) with what I thought was a very appealing engraving: https://musescore.com/r_d/scores/5482385?from=notification#comment-5180196 By the way, they're on version 3.0.5 now. A lot of the fixes are on the level of "how was this program functioning bef...

Dear Notatio, I am arranging Robert Fuchs' double bass sonata whereby the piano becomes a woodwind quintet. It likes to modulate a lot and the piano already has double sharps, and this is exacerbated in the transposing parts. There are also instances where the piano transitions from sharps to flats ...
