Dynamics
Hi,
This has probably been addressed before - if so plse direct me accordingly.
Say I have a new score. Somewhere along the score I decide I want change the dynamic from the default setting in the new score to, say, ff. A few bars later I want to go back to the default dynamics setting. How do I do this? The dynamics menu has nothing to enable one to get back to the default (start) dynamics. i.e. there is nothing available in the menu between mp and mf, which I would assume is the default dynamics setting that I started with. Nothing that I can see in the manual either.
Thanks, Henry

mf is the default. Or actualy and more correct: mf is (by default) set to the same velocity as the default velocity (uthe one used in absence of any dynamic).
In reply to mf is the default. Or… by Jojo-Schmitz
Thanks so much.
More to the point though - independent of what the playback in the current version of MuseScore does by default if you omit a start dynamic, the musicians reading your score will not know how loud to play. You should never omit starting dynamics if you intend to use dynamics at all.

Thank you for that. Marc. I will remember in future.
