What’s New?

4.6.5

This is a minor update that includes several crash fixes as well as improvements to chord symbols, which should prevent them from unintentionally moving in the score. Also included is an audio export fix, where rests at the start of the score were being skipped. If you haven't yet updated to version 4.6, you'll also gain access to the huge set of new playback, engraving, and workflow improvements introduced in that release. This includes support for online sounds, enabling playback of lyrics with Cantai (available separately from MuseSounds). Highlights from version 4.6: - Greater control over showing and hiding empty staves - Dramatically improved real-time playback performance - Major new features for piano, voice, and guitar notation - Completely reworked chord symbol handling - Support for any SMuFL-compliant music font - VST3 plugin support on Linux - Many workflow refinements And much, much more...

It's good. There are limited guitar features, but other than that, it's pretty great.

4.6.5

I’ve been with Musescore about three years now, and the quality and complexity of it is immaculate. I cannot recoomend this enough, and with the use of plugins, you can get FL Studio-level compositions going in no time, completely for free.

I will MuseScore 4 has certainly helped me progress aimproves a composer overall. I really appreciate how hard the creative team works to improve this product. But I MUCH prefer the use of the hairpins in Muse 3 where "properties" gave me absolute control of diminuendos and crescendos. I struggle too much with in Muse 4, though the drop-down dynamics menus are great! Keep working Team! Thank you.

4.6.5

The epitome of enshittification. Has the potential to be so much more but instead we get ads, broken playback for PAID sounds, and buggy software.

4.6.5

Upon upgrading to 4.6.5 the playback function will no longer work. Everything was fine with 4.6.4 I tired to go back to the prior version 4.6.4 by uninstalling musehub and musescore studio, but the installation program just reinstalled 4.6.5 and I am now totally stuck.
