Musescore General HQ download please?
The new HQ soundfont didn't come along with my MuseScore 3.3 when I downloaded it, and I'm surprised that there aren't any downloads of the soundfont provided at this official site. Now I can't use expressive instruments. Can anyone provide me the soundfont? Or can I get it somewhere else? Thank you.

a) There's no need for the HQ soundfont when it comes to expressive
b) There is an HQ soundfont for 3.3
c) The HQ soundfont never comes along with a MuseScore download and install, but needs to get installed as an extension
But indeed, while MuseScore 3.3.3 comes along with an updated 0.1.8 version of the non-HQ soundfont, the extension's HP one is still on the 0.1.6 version.
See #291724: Percussive organ plays Ab2 and A2 wrong, which also has links where you can download the HQ soundfont

Understand. I have downloaded it by the link, but how do I get it as an extension anyways?

Getting the extension updated is WIP. (You get it via Help > Resource manager > Extensions)
Until then just install that soundfont in the usual way, like outlined in the handbook

So, can I download HQ soundfont in sf2 format somewhere? I can get HQ soundfont from extension, but it is sf3 format and sf3 format is lossy compression(low sound quality compared to the original). I would like to get the original one.
