Chord Symbol Playback & Concert Pitch
Hello,
I was recently working on a transcription using Musescore 4 and I noticed that the chord symbol playback didn't work as I expected. I was writing a melody on Bb Trumpet and then added chord symbols above that melody. The problem is that the chord symbols during playback sounded in concert pitch, when they should've been playing back in Bb (My first chord in Bb is a Dmaj7, but it is sounding an EMaj7). The concert pitch toggle does change the chords but the melody shifts also, meaning we are stuck with chords that don't fit the melody.
I hope I could help!
-Nic

See #338210: Transposed Instrument Playback
Also having this problem when writing lead sheets that were started in version 3. Chord playback for non-concert pitch instruments is in instrument key, not concert pitch (leading to some wicked polytonal chords). Playback is fine in version 3, but not version 4.
