No more voice oohs, choir aahs, synth voice, and other options for distinguishing different vocal parts?

• Sep 1, 2024 - 13:46

I have a song sung by multiple characters, and I want each character to have a different synth voice sound in playback. In Musescore 3, I could open the mixer with F10 and change what a synth voice sounded like there. I had the option of oohs, aahs, choir, and literally anything else. If there were lots of characters, sometimes I would apply a different synth instrument to represent a 4th, 5th, or 6th character vocal line. Why can't I do this in Musescore 4? Or if I can, where has the feature been moved to?

I'll continue to use Musescore 3 on my old computer as long as I can, and only occasionally use Musescore 4 on my new computer for limited things.

4.4 and the new choir sounds have 3 different vocalizations, ooh, aah and mmm. Added through Staff Text. Sometimes hard to hear the difference, but they are there.

MU3 isn't going away.

I always use different orchestral instruments for each voice in a chorale work because I hate the "vocal" sounds. I've always used oboe, harmonica, trombone, and bassoon (in my opinion, these four instruments sound most like actual human voices) for SATB ... unless the instrumental accompaniment uses one or another of those instruments prominently, in which case, I change that one.
