volume of chord symbols
I haven't figured out a system to mute or lower the volume of the chord symbols written above the staff. I have the plugin that expands the chords. I tried to manually remove the chord symbols which initially worked until I made changes and then all the expanded chords were deleted.

See https://musescore.org/en/faq#faq-308797, it answer that too (in a nutshell: use the harmony channel in the Mixer)

You need to expand the channel strip for the instrument with the chord symbols to see its subchannels. Right now you're only seeing the bottom portion of the channel strips. EIther expand the window or scroll up so you can see the top of the channel strips, where the expand buttons are.

Yes. it looks like you successfully expanded the flute strip.

So if I have a multi-instrument score, all with chord symbols, I have to reduce each one if I am playing them all?
Is that correct?

If you want each softer, then yes. Normally it wouldn't make sense to have them all playing at once though; I'd actually have recommended muting all but one, or turning off their "Play" property in the Inspector.

Good advice thanks.

Okay, I seem to have solved it. I had all instruments with changes. I deleted the changes from all instruments but one. I am now able to have what I need.
But to be clear: plugins aren't needed any more, the above article refers to the built-in playback facility in MuseScore 3.5 or later.
