Upgrading issues?
(I am not positive this goes here, but...)
So, I upgraded to 2.0, and...
well, the upgrade seems to have munched some of my songs. Some notes won't play at all in 2.0 the way they would in 1.3, and I'm having to rework dynamics entirely from scratch. Being an EXTREMELY amateur compositionist, this really doesn't help me feel like I'm getting better.
Please explain what just happened? Someone?

It's hard to say what might be happening without seeing the actual score you are having difficulty with. In general, scores should improt just fine, and simply look and sound better due to the improvements in layout and playback.

Fair enough. The two linked are the ones with the most trouble, but there's two others where the notes just seem to get left out entirely, despite playing just fine in 1.3

The notes in question are pushing / outside the range of the instrument you've written for and the soundfont apparently doesn't include samples for those notes. Probably a D should be included, but you've gone beyond that too. You could switch to piccolo or some other sound, but you are probably best off considering whether it makes more sense to stay within the more playable range of the instruments.

Thanks. I appreciate the help.
I still think I'll stick with 1.3 though. The discrepancy is moderately displeasing.

Or simply use the 1.3 default soundfont

As Michael advised, you can use MuseScore 2.0 with the 1.3 SoundFont.
* how you can change the soundfont in 2.0: http://musescore.org/en/node/50721
* download the 1.3 soundfont named TimGM6mb from http://musescore.org/en/node/36171#list

Which raises the issue that the FluidR3 soundfont doesn't have samples for the full recorder range.
There are no samples for the upper range of the sopranino and garklein recorders.
Will sort that.
Fixed SF2 version will be available from my dropbox account later today.
Look in the soundfont forum for announcement....
