Default dynamics
Hello.
If i dont use any of the dynamic marks in the score (like p or mf) what is the default dynamics that the piece is set to? Judging by my ear it seems to be "mf" but I would like to be sure.

It is indeed. But no guarantee that this will be tha case forever
And no guarantee a human musician reading your score will interpret it that way. If you care about dynamics - which you apparently do! - do not rely on whatever any one program or person mighty happen to default to. Always be explicit.

Sorry for late reply. I was refering here strictly for the musescore playback dynamics by default (so when score does not have any dynamics description) which indeed seem do be set to "mf" whuch is 80 in musescore velocity number, right?

"do not rely on whatever any one program or person mighty happen to default to"
It is (or should be) entirely irrelevant what the default at this point in time in the current stable version happens to be. If you care about the dynamic/velocity, then place one.
There is zero guarantee that the current default will be the default in any other version.
