Perfect. Thanks

You did add a staff text, but I think that you just typed in "Pizz." yourself.
If instead you use the specially pre-formatted "pizz.'" staff text which you will find in the Text palette, the pizz. sound is implemented automatically. TBH I don't like the way in which MS4 has implemented this.
In MS3 you could see the actual "pizzicato" or "arco" settings with right-click > Staff Text Properties > Change Channels . But in MS4 the "pizz." and "arco" special Staff texts don't allow right-click > Staff Text Properties - it's all smoke and mirrors, hidden away .

The problem is that the old method was totally dependent on the old MIDI model of separate channels separate program changes etc. That's not how VST's work, and it's not how Muse Sounds work.
It is expected at some point it will become possible to custom define markings for things like this, but meanwhile, there shouldn't be anything you actually lose by not seeing all that old-fashioned MIDI under-the-hood stuff.

Right, but how do you make a custom sf2 play nice with this? musesound strings are too muted.

Any GM-compatible soundfont should work out of the box if you find you have a special need for louder pizzicato. You can also add instrument changes to get extra mixer channels, if you want to use a custom pizzicato sound while keeping the Muse Sounds strings in general

Yes. Didn't know I had to use the text pallette
PIzz and similar markings are no longer created as customized staff text. Instead, use the predefined "playing technique annotation" markings from the text palette.
Note that in earlier versions, merely using the word staff text would not have done it; you'd have also needed to set a specific channel and selected specific voices in the staff text properties. The need for all that is gone now.

Muse score 4
Pizz when assigned from the text pallet
Works in violin 1, viola, cello‘s, and contrabass
Does not activate violin two
This occurs after an MXL
Is loaded into muse score 4 after being sent and returned
I had a similar issue where I needed to reassign each and every pizz and Arco
But once reassigned, it worked fine this time when I got the file back violin to does not respond to the text pallet Pizzacato
