Enhancing Crescendo/Diminuendo effect
Hello everyone.I want to know how can I steep the gradient of hairpins in musescore 3.2.In normal situations hairpins seems to be almost ineffective and the sound is actually steady.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

See the "Dynamics method" setting in the Inspector, a few different options there. Also be sure you are specifying the dynamics you want before and after, or are using the velocity change setting.

Thanks.This did the trick.But are there any global settings for further hairpins? or I have to do the same each time?

Well, human musicians reading your score generally need dynamic markings also. So it really isn’t a “trick”, it’s just how music is usually notated. there are a few special situations where it can be acceptable to use hairpins without dynamic markings, and in those special situations, you can use the velocity change approach. If you encounter those special situations often enough to wish to save some time on them, you can add your customized hairpin back to the palette by Crl+Shift+dragging it. But be sure only to use that version in those special cases where you aren’t also using dynamic markings. most of the time you should definitely use dynamic markings to tell both MuseScore and human musicians what you want.

Thanks for reminding . But what do you mean by dragging to the palette? I used Ctrl+Shift and dragged the hairpin into the palette but that's not possible.

Oh yes, you're using an older version of MuseScore that is more complicated to customize. Update (current is 3.4.2) and it works as simply as that. In older versions, there was a rather convoluted process of creating a custom workspace then enabling editing for the palette that was needed.

OK, thanks for your precise explanations Marc.
Good luck.
