it's so weird hearing him say "i'm martin keary" instead of "tantacrul"
also it's hilarious hearing him trying to be serious instead of just making a "jank" joke and calling it a day

Tantacrul: so to explain our improvements let me first roast musescore

[austininflorida]

Advertising new improvements by insulting the old version. I expect no less from Tantacrul.

[pittamaniak]

Even in a really professional video you never disappoint with your jokes. Bravo!

[zepewto]

I almost cried from the pure Joy of the spacing fixes. I've spent HOURS fixing spacing. Thank you all :)

This update notice is one of the best product update videos I've ever seen.

Not only does it explain the issues with the previous version of the product in detail, it goes into similarly in-depth detail about the improvements on those issues while gong through the process of using the new tools.

It's more like a well-done mini-tutorial which gets me excited to use the product.

I'm not someone who creates music, but I may just download this just to have the tools to do so if I decide to write a jingle or something.

The treble clef! Yes, I was waiting for that engraving!

[redundantqwail]

Gosh, even the funky background music sounds like tantacrul's

[aarongrooves]

This is so exciting! Dreaming of the day when the style menu is in alphabetical order :) But keep up the good work

I find this video fascinating in how Keary isn't afraid to talk about Musescore's older design to highlight how it has changed. It's actually great! For those who know how this stuff goes, I can't really say. But for newer users, they may not be aware that anything has really changed at all, and may not have a great idea of what all is encompased when you say "engraving". You could just show the improvements, but that may not properly convey how big of a change and time-saver this is. By not only showing what you've added, but what you used to have, it clearly conveys the convenience in this feature to anyone, old or new user alike.

It's also great that Keary goes into how you can take advantage of the new changes with older scores, or how you can still use the old system or have the flexibility to do what you want. "We made the engraving more convenient for you, but if you don't want to use it, you can just change the engraving rules to 'Custom' instead." It shows a lot of consideration on behalf of the MuseScore team.

Amazing news! I can‘t wait to not have to worry about fitting my systems on a page in a way that makes senes any more. The new notation font and typeface also look really great!

[ezra]

Wow Tantacrul, I didn’t know you had a second channel!

[AntoniootheWizard]

Wow, this looks incredible! The font and engraving look so clean. I’m excited to use it

[LeftHandedGuitarist]

Excellent work everyone, this looks great. I've been using Musescore for ever more complicated full rock scores and have had to do a LOT of manual tweaking to get pleasing results. I'm excited to test these improvements out.

[entp_adventures]

Y'all we've been waiting for this since 2017. So glad they did this.
