Musescore 4 - Muse Sounds in Workstation (Tutorial)

We look at the new M4 reverb functions and exporting parts for use in a workstation project, potentially along side midi instruments.

This sounds incredible! I wish Muse Sounds would be available as a separate plugin available to work with other notation software.

Reverb options already? This is exciting; thank you so much for sharing! I have downloaded and tried the nightly build myself, and the new reverb options definitely made better playback with less workarounds. Great piece too!

Hey Carl, nice video. Quick comment: the aux trach of the reverb send is hidden but you can make it visible if you go to the "...", view and show "aux 1 bus". Then you can even change the level of wet reverb you want. But again, great video, thanks for sharing! Best,

I have several sample libraries that I use. I'm still not sold on the sounds in Musescore. However, I'm self-investigating to what degree of my doubt consists of my long-held bias opposed to built-in sounds within notation programs. What's clear to me is the time saved without having to notate as well as sequence. I'm glad I found your channel.

Since Muse Hub is Out of order since 11/11 (macos), could you explain how to retrieve the museSounds that are installed in my computer, directly from MuseScore 4 and all the paid instruments also. TY Chris

Quick question if you don't mind: Are you planning to make a tutorial on how to improve Muse Sounds orchestral playback?

Hi, Carl. It's great to see and learn from your untiring efforts in the search of getting best instrumental quality and expression, possible out of the open source tools and resources, each time you see a possible upgrade: from exploring soundfonts within LMMS, SFZ within Qtractor + Carla to Muse Sounds within Musescore now. But, I'm curious this time, as Muse Sounds bring a lot of advantages, yet they remove crucial benefits. These are my impression: Muse Sounds are way better in terms of quality (Kontakt-level, though they are soaked in too much reverb some times), yet I'm unable to port or edit them to my favour, as I did with .sf2 and .sfz; and, no other apps support Muse Sounds other than MuseScore (would they ever release its API?). Is Muse Sounds really the free instrumental plugin format that we are waiting for? Or, do SFZ still have their chance, if the format is supported with high quality samples? Or, do Muse Sounds have technical advantage in terms of musical expression?

Though I watched your videos centering on a few of points above, I'm at crossroads yet to make a switch (I'm comfortable with LMMS + Sforzando + a collection of high quality samples). Need your suggestion on this. Thanks a lot in advance!

Dose the Musescore and muse sounds play strings harmonics? If so, how do I activate it?
Also, will it work on Zorin OS 17.1?

What is the Linux distribution being used, and what is the DAW software after MuseScore 4? thanks
