I think there's a thing most people I see talking about this on this and other videos are missing: musescore is *NOTATION* software. Notation. It's not a DAW or something similar. The fact it can this well is already incredible.
Not to mention it's completely free. Other softwares that people are mentioning, like Noteperformer, might be better, but those are paid.

Exactly, and to add on it’s such an annoying fact that when mentioning music production with traditional instruments NOBODY mentions MuseScore. They recommend you these VST plugins that costs hundreds or thousands of dollars when this exists for free and even rivals their quality. I am glad I stumbled upon this video, it really shows that MuseScore is truly capable of achieving the best.
in order to achieve nice harp gliss playblack in sibelius, you have to split up the notation and have a manually spelt-out version of notes hidden underneath. not sure if it is doable in musescore 4 too.
The thing that annoys me the very most about any VST orchestra, is actually not the quality of the instruments, but that annoying attack they have on every single note (a volume swell from the start of the note). MS4 letting Muse Sounds understand the phrase helps this so much I'm actually considering seeing if I can render any orchestral bit in MS then bringing it to the daw afterwards.
The problem with I'd say at least 7/10 orchestral VSTis is not that they're samples, but rather the way that they are sampled and programmed is absolutely awful and this has become the standard/tradition for them. Very few outside-the-box thinkers and hardly anyone from the classical music world. As a result, you are forced to make a lot of musical compromises that you shouldn't have to and you basically have to write modern "film music" because that's all the samples can reliably do.
Y’all would benefit from using cinematic studio’s sample libraries and performance samples, they actually got it right and there are some other great libraries out there, although I’m super glad musesounds exist now, midi just can’t do as well and easily stuff like that, it has more limitations than notation software

This is absolutely spectacular! I don't doubt that you could get a better sound out of a proper VST with a bunch of tweaking, but for an out-of-the-box sound this is genuinely incredible!
Musescorse VST compatibility is limited. They just added compatibility in the last update and I bet they'll keep improving it though but at the moment there isn't much you can do with it relative to an actual DAW
The other stuff requires you to think more like a computer programmer than a musician. It's been unbelievably frustrating for me. because it was like there was always one step somewhere where I had to wonder "Why the hell isn't this working?". From the ASIO, to Kontakt, to the MIDI controller, to the Focusrite interface, to the lack of support for mp3, to the legato not working right, to the dynamic getting messed up every time I'd export, etc... jesus christ. If this actually works right, even only half the time and it's good enough to do a little soundtrack for an indie game, or a documentary or an animation? I might be sold. Imagine if you could also do this with notation for guitars, drums, bass and other stuff conventional stuff. Ooo....
Especially the mid-register instruments like the oboe, english horn, and clarinet are really drowned out. When you're making a huge score like this, you may wanna raise those instruments +6db in the mixer. Maybe they'll fix that in the future idk.
Wow, MuseSounds is the tool we've wanted for a long time. Nothing perfect, just something that actually sounds great when you play it back! Edit: can you believe this stuff is FREE???
Agreed, it just needs to be good enough to give us a pleasant experience scoring, most of the sound is in our heads/will be in the mockup/in the recordings anyways, it's not supposed to be a final product but good enough so it's not painfully bad
Oh my goodness, I only recently downloaded MuseScore 4 and the Muse Sounds and listening to the playbacks literally made me start crying. The sound is simply phenomenal.
This is . . . magical. While there are clearly still a few challenges in terms of not giving away that the sound isn't coming from an actual recording (realistic glissandos, the natural flourishes and imperfections that come with a human performance, etc.), this is still utterly incredible.
Love the first one, especially. To test MS4, I imported a bunch of midis from the MIDI Classical Archive and many have balance problems, like the strings are barely audible and horns are too loud, but some of them were pretty good.
It sounds great, especially given that it is using default settings. However, after having heard several examples I believe that NotePerformer still has a better, more musical and expressive playback engine. Of course, it's current samples are not as good as the new MuseScore samples but this will likely change with the upcoming NotePerformer v4.
I don't even think MuseSounds competes with NotePerformer. As far as I can tell, MuseSounds is competing against things like Sibelius Sounds and whatever Finale comes with by default, it's a free library that's pretty much out-of-the-box for that software. NotePerformer to me feels like it's more competing with hiring an audio tech to produce you a render using $$$ libraries customised in close detail to produce a final, production-ready output (with an actual recording session being an entirely different class again). With this in mind, MS absolutely stomps. I'm genuinely going to stop working on Sibelius now, after 15 years of use, and switch to Musescore because I'm convinced of its readiness for prime time (as far as amateur prime time goes) and how easy it is to make compelling renders at 0 cost
