Project
1) Open a MuseScore file with 15+ instruments, fast notes (32nd notes and faster), or multiple layers of percussion
2) Playback the score. Normally in playback, all instruments would be able to be heard without error in the audio
3) Score audio will start to "clip" or "pop", particularly in sections where instruments play fast notes, 15+ instruments are playing at the same time or multiple percussion instruments are being played at once
This is currently a major issue for MuseScore 3.3.0.24090 on multiple scores. It was also noticed in the previous update but not as bad. Scores that were written with the previous update that had no glitches now have major glitches with the new update.
Currently using Macbook Pro OS Mojave 10.14.5
