Demisemiquaver note help

• Aug 15, 2020 - 14:48

Hello there my fellow music enthusiasts,
I'm trying to re-write an arrangement made for piano and violin for just the piano and I've come across these weird 32nd notes that I need to copy into my musescore arrangement but I don't even know what they're called, not to mention not knowing how to write them on my pc keyboard.
This is only my second arrangement in musescore software and my first question asked on this plaftorm so I apologise if I've picked a wrong subject or forum.

I would be delighted if you could help me out with this issue and provide som insight. Thank you in advance.

Both the note you circled and the rest before that are the same duration. The shortcut for these is 2. They probably look strange because there is a rest then a 32nd note beamed to the 16th note. Enter the rest, the note, change duration then enter the next note and MuseScore will make it look like your image.

Nothing weird about them. Just select the duration with keyboard shortcut 2 or by clicking on the demisemiquaver (1/32nd note for our US readers) in the toolbar and enter the rests and notes as you would any other duration.

Or have I misunderstood your problem?
