Changing dynamics for selected bars only

• Nov 16, 2017 - 01:30

A very basic question, this. In my composition I want to change bars 31 and 32 to play more quietly, then go back to the original volume from bar 33.

However, when I apply a dynamic such as "p" to bars 31 and 32, the rest of the composition from bar 33 onwards also plays at this reduced volume. How do I limit a dynamic change to the selected bars or notes only?

And to be clea,r this isn't some quirk of MuseScore; it is how music notation works. Dynamic markings like "p", "mf" etc. always take effect starting from the point where they appear and continue until another dynamic marking appears.
