M1 Macs
Hey!
Just wondering if MuseScore is optimized for M1 Macs or if it runs decently under Rosetta 2. Also, will an Apple Silicon native version be part of MuseScore 4?
Do you still have an unanswered question? Please log in first to post your question.

It is not optimized roe M1 Mac, it may or may not run under Rosetta.
IIRC the Startcenter and/or Save Online won't work and QML caching needs to get switchted of, the latter should be done in 3.6, the former can be done via the -w commandline option / Prefecences / not using Save online.
Please try it out and report
Whether and how MuseScore will get adapted is yet unclear, no work towards that has been done as of yet, as far as I can tell

I tried to Save Online from my Mac Book Pro 13' M1 chip and it did work under Rosetta 2,

That is the version that runs under Rosetta though, as there is no pure M1 version yet.

Sure, I went to the github repo but couldn't find any v4.0 branches. Will they be available for testing?

For anyone with MuseScore 3.6.2 on M1, does the Start Center work for you, specifically the "Web view" on the right-hand side?

I can confirm that Musescore currently runs on my late 2020 macbook pro 13 inch with M1 chip under rosetta 2. I hope that info helps!

Thanks!!
I've been working on it on a Mac M1 and it does make like cracking sounds trough the speakers (i hope).
Even when it's still on while i do other stuff, it does weird things and sounds; mostly effective on other applications making noise; my apple music already glitched and froze 3 times the last week and that only happens when i'm transcribing on musescore.
i recommend always saving and closing musescore while not using
