How to record one's voice and put it instead of MuseScore's sound?

• Jan 30, 2019 - 12:47

Hey. I have an issue. How can I record my voice and mix it within the sound of my score? To explain this ; I want to replace the default voice soundfont by, say, my own voice, that I will have recorded. How do I do that? I've already tried by "Manage audio scores" but as I don't want to create a YouTube channel just for that, it seems quite complicated to go past that limitation.

Anyone has a solution?

You can't do that with MuseScore , you must use something like AUDACITY, you put the MP3 of your Music on the first track and tou record your voice on the second track, simply with the microphone of your computer

You have to record (save as audio) the soundfont you want to use, with MuseScore, as instrumental track(s).

Then, you can put the audio file(s) into Audacity, or any other multitrack audio editor, and... Then, you have to record your voice, with a microphone connected to your computer (directly or through some extra device).

How to control the volume and tone of each track, is a matter out of this forum.

Because I want the new track to play on the score instead of the soundfont one.

MuseScore 'plays' a score by 'reading' the notes which are subsequently transformed into audio via the synthesizer which requires samples of each instrument's sound (even your voice) for playback.
See:

and

So...
If you want your voice to play back on the score instead of the soundfont one, you will have to create a soundfont containing your own voice - e.g. record your own aah's, or ooh's.
