Currently MuseScore doesn't read the unpitched instrument definition in part and doesn't map them with the in note. As a result, unpitched percussion are not sounding right when one import a MusicXML file.


Comments

Initial implementation done in revision 5595. Drumset is read OK, but two issues remain:
- notes are drawn on inccorect staff line
- notes still do not sound like drums (saving to and loading from MuseScore format fixes this)

Thanks for the reminders (I had forgotten about those).

Drum sound problem is fixed in revision 5596, but notes are still drawn on incorrect staff line.

Yes, it seems to work - thank you again :).

Do you want to mark this (and the other issues) as fixed?

Using MuseScore 2.0 Nightly Build (5597) - Mac 10.7.3.

Closing the issue, as everything seems to work OK as of commit d8dd3237d2.

According to Wikipedia, bass clef used to be common for percussion notation.
