MuseScore: Load SoundFont

Loading SoundFont
":/data/piano1.sf2"
failed. Playback will be disabled.

Go to Display > Synthesizer
and check that the file location is correct

OK

Could this be because I also have the latest MuseScore prerelease installed on my laptop?

thanks!

(I get this error when I click the nightly.bat, and after I click ok, the Nightly starts)

I think this is correct behaviour. The latest revision dont have an build in soundfont at :/data/piano1.sf2 so the message is correct. You have to configure a valid sound font.

If the current location is :/data/piano1.sf2 then it should silently change to the new default location. Otherwise we will probably have a large number of people asking this same question when the new version comes out.

I was thinking that this shouldn't be hard to fix, I was right...
