to create a simple, yet pedagogic and smart manual for people who, to begin with, just want to practice.

• Apr 20, 2016 - 16:02

To whom it may concern,

The big range of practicing files for choruses on MuseScore 's website, files where each part has its own staff, shows that many choirs use the program as exercise programs. To my chorus friends I have translated and handed out a manual with the following content :

•To download MuseScore
•Download practice files and store them on ones computer
•Zoom, continuous view, metronome
•Distinguish "your" voice from the others
•Pan (stereo) good when using headphones
•Change metronome strength
•Tempo and volume control
•Go to the line number nn
•To practice a particular section over and over again

All instructions are of course available on the museScore's website but for people who do not have computer skills and are somewhat shy of the unknown, the instructions are difficult to find. Furthermore, the English language may be a barrier.

I am now asking you if you could create a simple, yet pedagogic and smart manual for people who, to begin with, just want to practice. A manual that you can easily find on the museScore's website.

thank you in advance, yours sincerely,

Jan-Willem van Alphen de Veer, Vikbolandet Sweden

Continuation topic of the same question also posed in https://musescore.org/nl/node/107186 and https://musescore.org/en/node/107191

This site already has a how-to category for posts (see https://musescore.org/en/search/site/?f[0]=bundle:howto for all of the english how-to's). I know the website team has making how-to's better available as one of its working points open.

I'm currently not aware of how to create a how-to page but I'm sure someone else will step in and show you where you can do so. That way you can post the contents of your manual in a new how-to.

[EDIT:] Looks like this link should do the trick https://musescore.org/en/node/add/howto

Jan-Willm,

could you leave here a message when you uploaded it as suggested in the previous comment. I am very interrested in it.

Does it also work with a condensed score (Tenor 1/2 in one bar, Baritone/Bass voices in the other)?

Prettig weekend,
Rob.
