• Aug 13, 2018 - 16:54

Hello All.

I would like to know how to input, in Musescore, as well as how to listen to the audio playback of the following guitar techniques:

  • Slide
  • Right Hand (Palm) Muting
  • Left Hand Muting
  • Vibrato

Thanks for any responses!

Workarounds (and current features)
1) Slide: add a glissando (Arpeggios & Glissandos palette) -> In Inspector: change the text (so, Sl. instead of gliss.) and untick "Play"
Or for playback too, other workaround: add a bend (then, made invisible), with limitations : three tones maximum.

2) Right Hand (Palm) Muting: enter regular text: P.M.
If playback too: enter "Instrument" fromText palette -> edit the text for P.M. -> for Mid-staff sound change: open Mixer (F10), and choose "Palm Muted guitar" sound.
But not intended for acoustic guitars (electric guitars only)

3) Left Hand Muting? What do you mean exactly?

4) Vibrato, for Vibrato or Tremolo bar (for electric guitar) ? See the symbol ("V" shape) in Articulations & Ornaments palette. No playback currently.
