<h3 id="linux-installation">Linux</h3>
<p>This guide is written primarily for users of the K Desktop Environment (KDE), used in Linux systems such as SUSE or Kubuntu, with instructions in brackets (...) for users of the GNOME Desktop Environment, used in Linux systems such as Ubuntu or Fedora. </p>
<h4>Install MuseScore</h4>
<p>The project source is available at <a class="freelinking external" href="http://www.musescore.org/en/download">http://www.musescore.org/en/download</a> but you will usually find a suitable binary package in the repository of your distribution.<br />
In Ubuntu, MuseScore is located in the "universe" repository. The universe repository must be enabled, if you want to install MuseScore.<br />
To output sounds you have the option to use ALSA or the JACK sound server. Which one works (better) depends on the individual system.</p>
<p>Follow these steps to install MuseScore:</p>
<ol>
<li>Open Add/Remove Software (in Gnome: Add/Remove Programs)</li>
<li>Under the category Multimedia (in Gnome: Sound &amp; Video), select MuseScore</li>
<li>select the package  "JACK Control" too.</li>
<li>Click on Preview (only KDE)</li>
<li>Click on Apply Changes</li>
</ol>
<h4>Setting up the JACK server</h4>
<p>Open the "JACK Audio Connection Kit" and select Setup.</p>
<ol>
<li>Under the audio tab deselect "realtime"</li>
<li>If you use ALSA audio, set the driver to "ALSA" and set the I/O device to “hw:0” (hw:Zero)<br />
             In some systems, OSS might work but ALSA doesn't.<br />
             If you use OSS audio, set the driver to "oss" and set the I/O device to "/dev/audio".</li>
<li>Apply the changes and start the JACK server</li>
</ol>
<h4>Setting up MuseScore</h4>
<p>Follow these steps to set up MuseScore:</p>
<ol>
<li>Open Muse Score, which is under Multimedia in the main menu (in Gnome: Sound &amp; Video)</li>
<li>Open the Edit menu and select Preferences</li>
<li>Under the I/O tab:
<ol>
<li>Ensure that "Use internal synthesizer" is checked</li>
<li>Ensure that your SoundFont is <kbd>/usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2</kbd> - this is the default - or select your private SoundFont if you have installed additional ones</li>
<li>If you use ALSA audio, set the driver to "ALSA" and set the device to <kbd>hw:0</kbd> (hw:Zero)<br />
             In the other case deselect ALSA and activate the JACK audio server</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Click Apply, and then click OK</li>
<li>Close MuseScore and then open it again to start writing your music</li>
</ol>
<h4>Comment</h4>
<ul>
<li>Your music player of choice, such as Amarok or Rhythmbox, cannot play music at the same time that JACK is running. You will need to stop your music, or even perhaps close your music player, to start the JACK server. However, to play music again, one simply needs to press Stop on JACK to use your music player again.<br />
If you try to start the Jack server while listening to a playback, the JACK Connection GUI may hang.</li>
<li>If you encounter problems with MIDI, it may be that your system is not set up to play MIDI. In a Console or Terminal, run the following commands:<br />
<pre>sudo modprobe snd-seq
sudo su -c 'echo snd-seq &gt;&gt; /etc/modules'</pre></li>
<li>Especially the Jack server is a tricky thing that might hang if not configured properly.  If you encounter any problems that this handbook was unable to solve, please consult any or all of the following web pages:

  <h1 class="book-heading">Crear nova partitura</h1>
  <p>From the main menu choose <kbd><samp class="menu">File</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">New...</samp></kbd>. This opens the new score wizard. </p>
<h3 id="newscore-titles">Title, composer and other information</h3>
<p><img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/newscore-titles_0.png" alt="New Score wizard: Title and other text" title="New Score wizard: Title and other text" width="450" height="367" class="inline" /></p>
<p>Enter the title, composer, or any other information as shown above. Notice the two options at the bottom:</p>
<ul>
<li>Create new score from template</li>
<li>Create new score from scratch</li>
</ul>
<p>The first option offers a list of ready-made scores in the next screen. The second option gives you the full choice of instruments in the next screen. Templates are discussed in more detail <a href="print/book/export/html/3414#newscore-templates" title="Templates">below</a>, but for now choose "Create new score from scratch." </p>
<p>Click "Next" to continue.</p>
<h3>Instruments and voice parts</h3>
<p><img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/newscore-instruments_0.png" alt="New Score wizard: Add instruments" title="New Score wizard: Add instruments" width="450" height="367" class="inline" /></p>
<p>The instrument window is divided into two columns. The first column lists instruments or voice parts to choose from. The second column is initially empty but will soon contain a list of the instruments for your new score. </p>
<p>The instrument list in the first column is categorized into instrument families. Double click a category to show the full list of instruments in each family. Select an instrument and click "Add". The instrument you selected now appears in the second column. You can add more instruments or voice parts if needed. </p>
<p>The order of the instruments in the second column determines the order they appear in the score. To change the order click on an instrument name and use the "Up" or "Down" buttons to move it higher or lower. When you are done click "Next".</p>
<h3>Key signature</h3>
<p>If you are using the latest version of MuseScore the wizard asks for a key signature. Select the key signature you need and click "Next" to continue.</p>
<p>If you are using version 0.9.2 or earlier the wizard does not ask for a <a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook/key-signature" title="key signature">key signature</a> so you may ignore this step.</p>
<h3>Time signature, pickup, and number of measures</h3>
<p><img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/newscore-measures_0.png" alt="New Score wizard: Time signature and measure options" title="New Score wizard: Time signature and measure options" width="450" height="367" class="inline" /></p>
<p>Set the time signature to the numbers you want. If your piece begins with a pickup then mark the "Pickup measure" checkbox and adjust pickup time signature to indicate the actual duration of the first measure.</p>
<p>If you know approximately how many measures you need you can specify that here. Otherwise you can add or delete measure later. </p>
<p>Click "Finish" to create your new score. </p>
<h3>Adjustments to score after creation</h3>
<p>You can change any settings specified during the new score wizard even after you start working on the score.</p>
<ul>
<li>To add or delete measures or create a pickup see <a href="http://musescore.org/et/measure-operations" title="Measure operations">Measure operations</a></li>
<li>To change any text see <a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook/text-editing" title="Text editing">Text editing</a>. To add a missing Title (or other text item) use the menu <kbd><samp class="menu">Create</samp> → <samp class="submenu">Text</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Title</samp></kbd> (or other text item)</li>
<li>To add, delete, or change the order of instruments use the menu <kbd><samp class="menu">Create</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Instruments...</samp></kbd>.</li>

<h3 id="newscore-templates">Templates</h3>
<p>The first screen of the new score wizard has an option to "Create new score from template" (see <a href="print/book/export/html/3414#newscore-titles">Title and other text</a> above for details). To create a score using this method select the template option and click "Next" to continue. </p>
<p>The next screen shows a list of templates. Select a template and click "Next". Continue and finish the new score wizard as usual. </p>
<p>The template files are normal MuseScore files stored in the template folder. You can create your own templates by saving MuseScore files to the template folder. On Windows the template folder is usually located at C:\Program Files\MuseScore 0.9\templates. On Linux look under /usr/share/mscore-xxx if you installed from the package manager. If you compiled mscore on Linux then look under /usr/local/share/mscore-xxx.</p>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Entrada de notes</h1>
  <p>Notes are entered in <samp class="mode">Note entry mode</samp>. First select a note or rest as start position for note entry. When entering notes you are always replacing existing notes or rests. So the duration of a measure does not change.</p>
<ul>
<li><kbd><kbd>N</kbd></kbd>: 	Enters <samp class="mode">Note entry mode</samp>.</li>
<li><kbd><kbd>Escape</kbd></kbd>: 	Leaves <samp class="mode">Note entry mode</samp>.</li>
</ul>
<p>After entering <samp class="mode">Note entry mode</samp> you should select the duration of the note you want to enter by selecting a value from the note palette or by the corresponding keyboard shortcut.</p>
<p>In version 0.9.4 and later the keyboard shortcuts for selecting the note duration are:</p>
<ul>
<li><kbd><kbd>1</kbd></kbd>: 64th note (semi-demi-semiquaver)</li>
<li><kbd><kbd>2</kbd></kbd>: 32nd note (demi-semiquaver)</li>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Operacions de compàs</h1>
  <h3>Append</h3>
<p>To add a measure to the end of the piece press <kbd><kbd>Ctr</kbd>+<kbd>B</kbd></kbd> (Mac: <kbd><kbd>⌘</kbd>+<kbd>B</kbd></kbd>). To add multiple measures use the menu <kbd><samp class="menu">Create</samp> → <samp class="submenu">Measures</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Append Measures...</samp></kbd>.</p>
<h3>Insert</h3>
<p>First select a measure then press <kbd><kbd>Ins</kbd></kbd> to insert a new empty measure before the selected one. To insert multiple measures use the menu <kbd><samp class="menu">Create</samp> → <samp class="submenu">Measures</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Insert Measures...</samp></kbd>.</p>
<h3>Delete</h3>
<p>To delete a measure you have to first select it in a special way. Press <kbd><kbd>Ctr</kbd></kbd> (Mac: <kbd><kbd>⌘</kbd></kbd>) on the keyboard as you click on an empty part of the measure with the mouse. The measure is marked with a dotted line indicating that you selected a "piece of time". Press <kbd><kbd>Ctr</kbd>+<kbd>Click</kbd></kbd> (Mac: <kbd><kbd>⌘</kbd>+<kbd>Click</kbd></kbd>) to extend the selection. Pressing <kbd><kbd>Del</kbd></kbd> (Mac: <kbd><kbd>Fn</kbd>+<kbd>Backspace</kbd></kbd>) removes the selected measures.</p>
<h3>Properties</h3>
<p>To edit the properties of a measure right click on an empty part of the measure and select <kbd><samp class="menuitem">Measure Properties...</samp></kbd>.</p>
<p><img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/measure-properties.png" alt="Measure properties dialog" title="Measure properties dialog" width="449" height="347" class="inline" /></p>
<h3>Staves</h3>
<p>The <em>Visible</em> property allows you to show or hide the notes and staff lines for the current measure. The <em>Stemless</em> property allows you to show or hide all note stems for the current measure. Notes that normally have a stem such as half notes (minums) and quarter notes (crotchets) only show the note head when marked as stemless. </p>
<h3>Duration</h3>
<p>The <em>Nominal</em> duration is the time signature that is displayed on the score. You can change the <em>Actual</em> duration of a measure to anything regardless of the time signature displayed on the score. Normally the nominal and actual duration of a measure is identical. A pickup (upbeat) measure can have a shorter actual duration.</p>
<h3>Irregular</h3>
<p>An "irregular" measure is not counted in the measure numbering. Normally a pickup measure is marked as "irregular". If you are using version 0.9.4 or earlier and mark a measure as irregular then you may need to save and reload the score before the measure numbers show the change.</p>
<h3>Repeat count</h3>
<p>If the measure is the end of a <a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook/repeat" title="repeat">repeat</a> you can define how often the repeat should be played.</p>
<h3>Break multi-measure rests</h3>
<p>This property separates a multi-measure rest at the current measure. If the current measure contains a change of <a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook/time-signature" title="time signature">time signature</a> then MuseScore marks this property automatically.</p>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Paleta</h1>
  <p>You can show or hide the palette using the menu <kbd><samp class="menu">Display</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Palette</samp></kbd>.</p>
<p>You can drag-and-drop palette symbols onto score elements.</p>
<p>Double clicking a palette symbol is equivalent to drag-and-dropping this symbol to each of the selected elements on the score.</p>
<p>For example you can easily put a tenuto on several notes at once:</p>
<ol>
<li>Select notes</li>
<li>Double click on the tenuto symbol in the Articulations/Ornaments palette</li>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Exportar</h1>
  <p>A score can be exported via <kbd><samp class="menu">File</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Save As...</samp></kbd> to several different formats:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Compressed MuseScore format (<code>*.mscz</code>)</dt>
<dd>MSCZ is the standard <i>MuseScore</i> file format and recommended for most uses. A score saved in this format will not loose any information. The format is a ZIP-compressed version of <code>.msc</code> files.</dd>
<dt class="latest">MuseScore format (<code>*.mscx</code>)</dt>
<dd class="latest">MSCX is the uncompressed version of the <i>MuseScore</i> file format used in version 0.9.5 or later. A score saved in this format will not loose any information and is recommended if you need to manually edit the file format using a text editor. Previous versions of MuseScore used the MSC file extension. However MSC has file extension conflicts on Microsoft Windows and is blocked by some email providers. The new MSCX file extension supersedes the old MSC file extension due to the problems outlined above.</dd>
<dt>MusicXML (<code>*.xml</code>)</dt>
<dd><a class="freelinking external" href="http://www.recordare.com/xml.html">MusicXML</a> is the universal standard for sheet music and can be used by most of the currently available scorewriters including Sibelius, Finale, and more than 100 others. It is the recommended format for sharing your sheet music between different scorewriters.</dd>
<dt>Compressed MusicXML (<code>*.mxl</code>)</dt>
<dd>Compressed MusicXML creates smaller files than regular MusicXML. Compressed MusicXML is a newer standard and not as widely supported by other scorewriters at this time.</dd>
<dt>MIDI (<code>*.mid</code>)</dt>
<dd>Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) is a format widely supported by sequencers and music notation software. However MIDI files are designed for playback not score layout so they do not contain information about formatting, pitch spelling, voicing, ornaments, articulations, repeats, or key signatures, among other things. To share files between different music notation software use MusicXML. If all you care about is playback then use MIDI.</dd>
<dt>PDF (<code>*.pdf</code>)</dt>
<dd>Portable Document Format (PDF) is ideal for sharing your sheet music with others who do not need to edit the music. Most computer users already have a PDF viewer on their computer so they will not need to install any extra software to see your score.</dd>
<dt>PostScript (<code>*.ps</code>)</dt>
<dd>PostScript (PS) is popular as a page description language used in printing.</dd>
<dt>PNG (<code>*.png</code>)</dt>
<dd>Portable Network Graphics (PNG) is a bitmap image format with native support on all major operating systems and image software and popular on the web. As of version 0.9.3 Multi-page scores export a PNG file for every page.</dd>
<dt>SVG (<code>*.svg</code>)</dt>
<dd>Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) can be opened by most web browsers (expect Internet Explorer) and most vector graphics software. However most SVG software does not support embedded fonts so the appropriate MuseScore fonts must be install to view these files correctly.</dd>
<dt>LilyPond (<code>*.ly</code>)</dt>
<dd>LilyPond format can be opened by the <a class="freelinking external" href="http://lilypond.org">Lilypond</a> scrorewriter . However LilyPond export is incomplete and experimental in the current versions of <i>MuseScore</i>.</dd>
<dt class="latest">WAV Audio (<code>*.wav</code>)</dt>
<dd class="latest">WAV (Waveform Audio Format) is an uncompressed sound format developed by Microsoft and IBM but widely supported by software for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. This is an ideal format for creating CDs since no sound quality is lost in the process of saving the file. However the large file sizes make it difficult to share via email or the web. This export option is available in version 0.9.5 or later.</dd>
<dt class="latest">FLAC Audio (<code>*.flac</code>)</dt>
<dd class="latest">Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) is compressed audio format. FLAC files are approximately half the size of uncompressed audio and just as good quality. Windows and Mac OS do not have built-in support for FLAC but software such as <a href="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/">VLC media player</a> can play FLAC files on any operating system. This export option is available in version 0.9.5 or later.</dd>
<dt class="latest">Ogg Vorbis (<code>*.ogg</code>)</dt>
<dd class="latest">Ogg Vorbis is intended as a patent-free replacement for the popular MP3 audio format. Like MP3, Ogg Vorbis files are relatively small (often a tenth of uncompressed audio) but some sound quality is lost. Windows and Mac OS do not have built-in support for Ogg Vorbis. However software such as <a href="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/">VLC media player</a> and Firefox 3.5 or later can play Ogg files on any operating system. This export option is available in version 0.9.5 or later.</dd>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Alteracions</h1>
  <p><strong>Accidentals</strong> can be set or changed by dragging an accidental symbol from the accidental palette to a note in the score.<br />
<img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/accidental-palette.png" alt="Accidentals palette" title="Accidentals palette" width="168" height="203" class="inline" /></p>
<p>If you only want to change the pitch of a note you can also select the note and press:</p>
<ul>
<li><kbd><kbd>Up</kbd></kbd>:   	Increase the pitch of a note by one semitone.</li>
<li><kbd><kbd>Down</kbd></kbd>:	Decrease the pitch of a note by one semitone.</li>
<li><kbd><kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Up</kbd></kbd>:	Increase the pitch of a note by one octave.</li>
<li><kbd><kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Down</kbd></kbd>:	Decrease the pitch of a note by one octave.</li>
</ul>
<p>MuseScore automatically tries to set an appropriate accidental for the changed pitch. If you need to manually correct an accidental or place an cautionary accidental (editorial accidental), then drag an accidental from the accidental palette to the note. If you later change the pitch with cursor keys, manual settings to the accidental are removed.</p>
<p>The menu function <kbd><samp class="menu">Notes</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Pitch spell</samp></kbd> tries to guess the right accidentals for the whole score.</p>

<p>Tuplet entry works a little differently in <a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook/note-entry" title="note entry">note entry</a> mode than the method outlined above. In version 0.9.5 or later you must take care of duration first then enter the pitches afterward. Below are step-by-step instructions for making triplet eight notes.</p>
<ol>
<li>Begin note entry mode</li>
<li>Make sure the note entry marker is in the place that you want to start the tuplet (use the right and left arrow keys if necessary)</li>
<li>Select a quarter note duration from the toolbar to specify the duration of the entire tuplet</li>
<li><kbd><samp class="menu">Notes</samp> → <samp class="submenu">Tuplets</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Triplet</samp></kbd> to specify the type of tuplet</li>
<li>Notice that an eighth note duration is automatically selected. Click on the staff to add pitches</li>
</ol>
<h3>Properties</h3>
<p>To change the display properties of a tuplet right click on the tuplet number and choose <kbd><samp class="menuitem">Tuplet Properties...</samp></kbd>.<br />
<img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/tuplet-properties.png" alt="Tuplet Properties dialog" title="Tuplet Properties dialog" width="245" height="223" class="inline" /></p>
<p>The number section of the properties dialog allows you to show one integer, a ratio of two integers, or no number at all.</p>
<p>In the bracket section the "bracket" and "nothing" allow you to explicitly show or hide the bracket. The "auto bracket" option hides the bracket for beamed notes and shows the bracket if the tuplet includes unbeamed notes or rests.</p>

<h3>When to use voices</h3>
<ul>
<li>If you need stems pointing in opposite directions within a chord on a single staff</li>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Voltes</h1>
  <p><strong>Volta</strong> brackets or <strong>first and second ending</strong> brackets are used to mark different endings for a repeat.</p>
<p><img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/volta_0.png" alt="Sample first and second endings" title="Sample first and second endings" width="370" height="73" class="inline" /></p>
<p>To place a volta bracket on the score drag-and-drop the item from the <a href="http://musescore.org/ca/freelinking/lines" class="freelinking noexist" rel="nofollow">lines palette</a>.</p>
<p>The brackets can span more than one measure. Double click the volta to enter <samp class="mode">edit mode</samp> and then move the handles with:</p>
<ul>
<li>one measure right <kbd><kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>Right</kbd></kbd></li>
<li>one measure left <kbd><kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>Left</kbd></kbd></li>
</ul>
<p>These commands move the "logical" start or end of the volta which determine the bracketed measures.<br />
Other commands in <samp class="mode">edit mode</samp> also move the handles but do not change how the repeat is played.</p>
<p>If you move the handles, a dashed line from the logical position to the actual position is shown<br />

<h3>Text</h3>
<p>You can change the text and many other properties of a volta bracket using the Line Properties dialog. Right-click on a volta bracket and choose <kbd><samp class="menuitem">Line Properties...</samp></kbd>. If you are using version 0.9.3 or earlier then choose "Volta Properties..." The figure below shows the volta text as "1.-5."</p>

<h3>Playback</h3>
<p>Sometimes a repeat plays for more than two times. In the figure above the volta text indicates that it should play five times before it continues. If you want to change the number of times MuseScore plays a repeat then go to the measure containing the repeat bar line and change its Repeat Count (see <a href="http://musescore.org/et/measure-operations" title="Measure operations">Measure operations</a> for details).</p>
<h3 class="v0-9-4">Issues with multi-part scores</h3>
<p>In version 0.9.4 or earlier you can only place voltas on the top staff of a multi-part score. Otherwise you may encounter bugs such as the MuseScore crashing when you create parts (see <a class="freelinking external" href="http://www.musescore.org/en/node/1257">bug report</a>) or the anchor position moving when you reload the score.</p>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Orígens de so SoundFont</h1>
  <p>MuseScore comes with a piano sound for play back. For more sounds, such as a violin or percussion, you need a General MIDI SoundFont.</p>
<h3>Overview</h3>
<p>A SoundFont file can store any number of instrument sounds. Many SoundFonts are available on the web. Look for one that covers the 128 sounds of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_MIDI">General MIDI</a> (GM).</p>
<p>The file size and sound quality of SoundFonts available on the web is varied. Larger SoundFonts often sound better but may be too large to run on your computer. If you find MuseScore runs slowly after installing a large SoundFont or your computer can't keep up during play back then look for a smaller SoundFont. Below are two popular GM SoundFonts of different sizes.</p>
<ul>
<li>FluidR3_GM.sf2 (141 MB uncompressed), download <a class="freelinking external" href="http://www.musescore.org/download/fluid-soundfont.tar.gz">Fluid-soundfont.tar.gz (129 MB)</a></li>
<li>MagicSF_ver2.sf2 (67.8 MB uncompressed), see <a href="http://www.personalcopy.com/sfarkfonts1.htm">Big SoundFonts</a></li>
</ul>
<h3>Compression</h3>
<p>Since SoundFont files are large they often are compressed into a variety of formats including .zip, .sfArk, and .tar.gz. You need to decompress these files before they can be used. </p>
<ul>
<li>ZIP is standard compression format supported by most operating systems.</li>
<li>sfArk is a compression format designed especially for compressing SoundFont files. Use the special <a href="http://www.melodymachine.com/sfark.htm">sfArk software</a> to decompress it.</li>
<li>.tar.gz is a popular compression format for Linux. Windows users can use <a href="http://www.7-zip.org/">7-zip</a> which supports a wide variety of compression formats. Note that you need apply decompression twice: once for GZip and once for TAR.</li>
</ul>
<h3>MuseScore settings</h3>
<p>After finding and decompressing a SoundFont do not double click to open it since this does not set up MuseScore. Instead move the file to a folder of your choosing, start MuseScore, and follow the instructions below.</p>
<p>Go to <kbd><samp class="menu">Edit</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Preferences...</samp> → <samp class="tab">I/O</samp> tab</kbd>.</p>
<p>The initial SoundFont setting is <samp>:/data/piano1.sf2</samp>. Replace this with the location of your new SoundFont (.sf2) file. Click on the Open icon to browse for the file and open it.</p>
<p>To apply changes click OK to exit the preferences panel. Quit and and reopen MuseScore for the changes to take affect</p>
<h3>Troubleshooting</h3>
<p>If the toolbar play panel is greyed out or not visible follow the instructions below to get your sound working again:</p>
<ol>
<li>Make sure there is a check mark next to the <kbd><samp class="menu">Display</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Transport</samp></kbd> menu item. You can add or remove the check mark by clicking on the corresponding menu item. If this step does not solve your problem continue with the next step below</li>
<li>If the play panel disappears after changing the SoundFont go to <kbd><samp class="menu">Edit</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Preferences...</samp> → <samp class="tab">I/O</samp> tab</kbd> and click OK without making any changes, After restarting MuseScore the play panel should reappear. This is a known bug with versions 0.9.3 or earlier.</li>
</ol>
<p>If you are setting up a SoundFont for the first time please use one of the recommended SoundFonts listed above.</p>
  </div>
<div id="node-3394" class="section-3">
  <h1 class="book-heading">Tempo</h1>
  <p>Play back tempo can be changed via the play panel or via tempo text in the score.</p>
<h3>Play panel</h3>
<ul>
<li>Display the play panel: <kbd><samp class="menu">Display</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Play Panel</samp></kbd></li>
<li>Change the Beats per Minute (bpm) using the Tempo (Tmp) slider</li>
</ul>
<h3>Tempo text</h3>
<ul>
<li>Select a note to indicate where the tempo text should be created</li>
<li>From the main menu: <kbd><samp class="menu">Create</samp> → <samp class="submenu">Text...</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Tempo...</samp></kbd></li>
<li>Press <kbd><samp class="button">OK</samp></kbd> to finish</li>
</ul>
<p>Note that in versions 0.9.3 or earlier it is not possible to change the tempo text or BPM from the initial Tempo Text dialog. However you can change both of these after you add a tempo text to the score.</p>
<p>Existing tempo text can be changed by double clicking the text to enter <samp class="mode">edit mode</samp>. You can use the <a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook/text-editing" title="text editing">F2 palette</a> to add a quarter note or another duration for a metronome mark in the tempo text.<br />
<img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/met_mark.jpg" alt="Metronome mark: Andante quarter note = 75" title="Metronome mark: Andante quarter note = 75" width="123" height="29" class="inline" /></p>
<p>Beats per minute (BPM) on existing tempo text can be adjusted by right clicking on the text and selecting <kbd><samp class="menuitem">Tempo Properties...</samp></kbd></p>
<p>Note: Tempo text in the score overrides a tempo setting in the play panel.</p>

  <h3>Mixer</h3>
<p>The mixer allows you to change instrument sounds and adjust the volume, panning, reverberation, and chorus for each staff. From the main menu choose <kbd><samp class="menu">Display</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Mixer</samp></kbd> to show the mixer.</p>

<h4>Mute and Solo</h4>
<p>Use the <kbd><samp>Mute</samp></kbd> check box to quickly silence certain staves. Alternatively use the <kbd><samp>Solo</samp></kbd> check box to silence all staves except the staff you mark as "solo".</p>
<h4>Dials</h4>
<p>To turn a dials clockwise click and drag upwards. To turn a dial counter-clockwise (anti-clockwise) click and drag downwards. </p>
<h4>Sound</h4>
<p>The sound drop-down menu lists every instrument supported by your current <a href="http://musescore.org/de/handbuch/soundfont" title="SoundFont">SoundFont</a>. This feature is not implemented in version 0.9.4 or earlier for Windows, but fixed in version 0.9.5.</p>
<h3>Mid-staff change</h3>
<p>In MuseScore some instruments can change sounds midway through a piece. For example strings can switch to pizzicato or tremolo and trumpet can switch to muted trumpet. The following instructions use muted trumpet as an example but the same principles apply to pizzicato or tremolo strings.</p>
<ol>
<li>Select the first note of the muted section</li>
<li>From the main menu choose <kbd><samp class="menu">Create</samp> → <samp class="submenu">Text</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Staff Text</samp></kbd></li>
<li>Type <kbd>Mute</kbd> (or an equivalent indication such as <kbd>Con Sordino</kbd>). At this point the staff text is for humans and does not affect playback in MuseScore</li>
<li>Right-click on the staff text and select <kbd><samp class="menuitem">Staff Text Properties...</samp></kbd></li>
<li>In the Staff Text Properties dialog mark the <kbd><samp>Channel</samp></kbd> checkbox</li>
<li>In the Staff Text Properties dialog select <kbd><samp>mute</samp></kbd></li>
<li>Click <kbd><samp>OK</samp></kbd> to return to the score</li>
</ol>
<p>Every note after the staff text you added now sounds muted. To return to an unmuted sound later in the piece follow the same guidelines as above except type <kbd>Open</kbd> in step 3 and select <kbd><samp>normal</samp></kbd> in step 6.</p>

<h3>Special characters</h3>
<p>Lyrics can be <a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook/text-editing" title="text editing">edited</a> as normal text with the exception of a few characters. If you want to add a space, hyphen or underscore to a single syllable then use the following shortcuts.</p>
<ul>
<li><kbd><kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Space</kbd></kbd> (Mac: <kbd><kbd>⌥</kbd>+<kbd>Space</kbd></kbd>) enters a <samp>space</samp> into the lyrics text</li>
<li><kbd><kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>-</kbd></kbd> (Mac: <kbd><kbd>⌥</kbd>+<kbd>-</kbd></kbd>) enters a hyphen (<samp>-</samp>) into the lyrics text</li>

  <p><strong>Page breaks</strong> or <strong>line breaks</strong> (system breaks) are applied by dragging the corresponding symbol from the breaks palette to an empty space of a measure in the score. The break happens after the marked measure. The green break symbols are visible on the screen but do not appear on printouts.</p>
<p><img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/breaks-spacer-palette.png" alt="Breaks Palette" title="Breaks Palette" width="135" height="60" class="inline" /></p>
<p><strong>Spacers</strong> are used to increase the space between two adjacent staves. Drag and drop a spacer to a measure above the area that needs more vertical space. Double click on the spacer and drag the handle using the mouse to adjust the height of the spacer. </p>
<p>If you want to adjust the space between staves score-wide then use the style settings. Spacers are designed for local adjustments.</p>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Marcs</h1>
  <p><strong>Frames</strong> provide empty space outside of normal measures. They can also contain text or pictures. MuseScore has two kinds of frames:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Horizontal</dt>
<dd><img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/hframe.png" alt="Horizontal Frame" title="Horizontal Frame" width="300" height="160" class="inline" /><br />
Horizontal frames break a system. The width is adjustable and the height equals the system height. Horizontal frames can be used to separate a coda.</dd>
<dt>Vertical</dt>
<dd><img src="/sites/musescore.org/files/vframe.png" alt="Vertical Frame" title="Vertical Frame" width="300" height="160" class="inline" /><br />
Vertical frames provide empty space between or before systems. The height is adjustable and the width equals the system width. Vertical frames are used to place title, subtitle or composer. If you create a title, a vertical frame is placed before the first measure automatically if it is not there already.</dd>
</dl>
<h3>Create a frame</h3>
<p>First select a measure. The command to insert a frame is found in the menu <kbd><samp class="menu">Create</samp> → <samp class="menuitem">Measures</samp></kbd> . The frame is inserted before the selected measure.</p>
<h3>Delete a frame</h3>
<p>Select the frame and press <kbd><kbd>Del</kbd></kbd>.</p>
<h3>Edit frame</h3>
<p>Double click the frame to enter <samp class="mode"><a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook/edit-mode" title="edit mode">edit mode</a></samp>. A handle appears which can be used to drag the size of the frame.</p>
<p>Title frame in <samp class="mode">edit mode</samp>:</p>

  <p>This chapter describes how to find help using MuseScore: the best places to look, the best way to ask a question on the forums, and tips for reporting a bug.</p>
  <div id="node-3403" class="section-3">
  <h1 class="book-heading">Com informar d&#039;un error o demanar suport</h1>
  <p>Before posting your support request <a href="http://musescore.org/en/forum">in the forum</a>:</p>
<ul>
<li>PLEASE, look for a solution in the <a href="http://musescore.org/en/handbook">user handbook</a>.</li>
<li>Use the <a href="http://musescore.org/en/search">search</a> function of the website to see if someone has already encountered the same problem on the <a href="http://musescore.org/en/forum">forums</a>. </li>
<li>If you are posting an error report, first try to reproduce the problem with <a href="http://musescore.org/en/download">the latest prerelease</a>. You may also view the <a href="http://mscore.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/mscore/trunk/mscore/ChangeLog">version history</a> to check whether it has been fixed already.</li>
</ul>
<p>When posting your request for support or bug report, please include as much of the following information as you know:</p>
<ul>
<li>Version of MuseScore you are using (e.g. version 0.9.5) or the revision number if you are using a prerelease (e.g. revision 1944)</li>
<li>Operating system you are running it on (e.g. Windows Vista, Mac OS 10.5 or Ubuntu 9.04)</li>
<li>If you are reporting a bug, please describe the precise steps that lead to the problem (where do you click, what keys do you press, what do you see, etc.).  If you are not able to reproduce the problem with the steps, it is probably not worth reporting it as the developers will not be able to reproduce it (and solve) either.</li>
<li>Limit your reports in the issue tracker to one bug per report</li>
</ul>

  <h1 class="book-heading">Tornar a la configuració per defecte</h1>
  <p>Recent versions of MuseScore have the option to revert back to the standard built-in presets or "factory-settings". Sometimes this is helpful if your settings are corrupted. This is not a normal occurrence so it is best to consult the forums first since there maybe a way to solve your problem without resetting everything.</p>
<p><strong>Warning:</strong> reverting to "factory settings" removes any changes you have made to the preferences, palettes, or window settings. </p>
<h3>Instructions for Windows</h3>
<ol>
<li>If you have MuseScore open then you need to close it first</li>
<li>Type <kbd><kbd>Windows key</kbd>+<kbd>R</kbd></kbd> to open the Run dialog. (The <a class="freelinking external" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_key">Windows key</a> is the one with the logo for Microsoft Windows.)</li>
<li>Click <kbd><samp>Browse...</samp></kbd></li>
<li>Look for mscore.exe on your computer. The location may vary depending on your installation but it is probably something similar to My Computer &gt; Local Disk &gt; Program Files &gt; MuseScore 0.9 &gt; bin &gt; mscore.exe</li>
<li>Click <kbd><samp>Open</samp></kbd> to leave the Browse dialog and return to the Run dialog. The following text (or something similar) should display in the Run dialog: <code>"C:\Program Files\MuseScore 0.9\bin\mscore.exe"</code></li>
<li>Click after the quote and a hyphen followed by a capital F: <kbd>-F</kbd></li>
<li>Press <kbd><samp>OK</samp></kbd>
</li>
</ol>
<p>After a few seconds MuseScore should start and all the settings reverted to "factory settings"</p>
<h3>Instructions for Mac OSX</h3>
<ol>
<li>If you have MuseScore open then you need to quit the application first (<kbd><kbd>⌘</kbd>+<kbd>Q</kbd></kbd>)</li>
<li>Open Applications/Utilities/Terminal and a Terminal session window should appear</li>
<li>Type, (or jusy simply copy/paste) the following command into your terminal line (include the '/' at the front):
<p><code>/Applications/MuseScore.app/Contents/MacOS/mscore -F</code></li>
</ol>
<p>This resets all MuseScore preferences to factory settings and immediately launches the MuseScore application. You can now quit Terminal, and continue using MuseScore.</p>
