using the 4 voices

How do you know when to use each voice? When do you switch from voice 1 to voice 2, 3 or 4?

Have you read https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/voices

That explains it quite well. If you have read it and are still having problems come back and explain in more detail.

In summary, use voice 1 always. Use voice 2 if you have a second rhythmically independent line. Use voice 3 in the rare circumstance of having 3 rhythmically independent lines and voice 4 in the extremely rare circumstance of having 4 rhythmically independent lines.
