MP3 audio file has no sound
symphony..mscz symphony..mscz I've been trying to export a piece that I've worked very hard on to email to one of my closest musician friends. I've tried exporting it to MP3 numerous times but not a single file has sound to it. Can someone help me? Thank you for your time
Below is the file I'm exporting

All the staves in the mixer have unusual settings (e.g., music box, harmonica) that suggest that a nonstandard soundfont is to be used. Are you sure you are using it when attempting to make the mp3? Are you making the mp3 from the menu, or the command line?

Soundfont used in the score: Symphonic Sounds.sf2

I'm sure the I am using it when downloading mp3. It has worked before when I downloaded the audio of other pieces I've composed but for some reason the current piece I attached is just too stubborn.

"Downloading" shouldn't be required to make an mp3.
If your score is playing back with the correct sounds within MuseScore, then make sure to save the synthesizer settings to the score. After that use
File → Exportand select mp3 as the export format.In reply to "Downloading" shouldn't be… by jeetee
that is not what I meant when I used the word downloading. I know how to export to mp3 and like I said previously, it's worked perfectly the other times I've done it.

Thanks for the clarification. Sorry for understanding what you wrote and not what you meant; this tends to happen on the non-psychic part of the internet ;-)
So the question then remains is whether you've done the make sure to save the synthesizer settings to the score-part, assuming your playback from within MuseScore itself is as expected. See https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/synthesizer#synth-settings

I've tried saving the synthesizer settings every time, but it still doesn't want to export correctly.

Wehn using custom soundfonts, downloading the MP3 would only work properly, when on upload you also uploaded the custom audio, which, under the covers, is an MP3 export

I'm sorry I don't have a clue of what you said. Can you rephrase it please?
