Going from two to four channels
My chart has two staves, each with two voices. I want to generate part-predominant learning tracks. I added two new staves and exploded, no problem. But my mixer still shows just the two tracks.
I know I can copy them to a doc already set up with 4 staves, but I wonder if there is an easier way.

Did you accidentally add sub-staff? You can add as many sub-staffs as you like to each instrument, but only one instrument is displayed in the mixer.
Only when you add a full instrument (this is also a different button, located above the existing instruments and simply called “Add”) will an instrument be added to the mixer. Sub-staffs are created using the “Add staff” button, but no instrument is created in the mixer for these staff lines; technically, they belong to the main instrument.
Visually, this cannot be distinguished in the music notation afterwards. You see four lines.

That's what I did. I didn't understand the difference between sub-staff and new instrument. Thank you.
To create individual vocal parts from choral scores where, for example, four voices are notated across two staves.

I don’t need the parts, just the audio. Thanks!

But as I said, I want part-predominant audio. So I need all four parts, with three af them at a lower volume.

And the fourth part not a voice, but an instrument instead (clarinet, oboe or so). Three voices, one instrument.
Thats what my wife uses for rehearsels at home. If you want to give it a try, it is really very helpfull, its way easier to recognize the own voice. The clarinet or oboe is so outstanding that you probably can use same volume for all.

I do it all with piano. I’ve experimented with saxophones, reeds, and a bunch of others, but the choir seems to like the piano sound for crispness.

Actually, when i write a new score for choir, i also prefer piano for checking it on errors. But my wife prefers vocals plus oboe for rehearsel (what is a slightly different approach).
I dont know how you provide the pieces, via audio file (Mp3 or so) or do you hand out the musescore file? In case of musescore file, of course everybody can setup the mixer according to his own preferences.
