SOund problems with Musescore 4
Musescore 4, sounds terribly rare, like if it has a great echo and all the sounds were overlapping, quite unusable and noisy.
Maybe it is could be related to the package of sounds linked to. But musescore 3 sounds properly

I am having the same issue. Downloaded every single "Muse Sound" but playback sounds terrible. Did not have this problem with version 3 . . . maybe I'll just revert to that unless anyone has advice for running on Windows 10.
Opened the mixer and switched everything to Muse Sounds. Playback was much better, but unfortunately the only organ option is Hammond, which sounds cheesy, and the violin is a bit syrupy. When I switched back to MS Basic, playback now works normally and the pipe organ sounds fine.
Found another flaw: if the Mixer is closed (or even "undocked") the playback problems occur. As long as the Mixer is open and docked, sound playback is normal.
Also note that the tempo, like the sound, is blurred whenever the Mixer is closed or undocked.

These are some strange issues especially relating to the mixer, but it's not the first time I've seen issues such as these.
Can you share a screen capture of the problem? That might help explain the problems better.
Also, are you on Windows, Mac, or Linux?

These are common problems if your computer doesn't meet the specs for MU4.
There is a "How To" in the MU4 section that gives some ideas on how to fix things.

Hi Karol I run it on Windows. There is not any warning message on the screen is just how it sounds, completely awful, noisy as overlapping all sounds and unuseful.

Can you share your computer specs? Specifically, how many CPU cores, and RAM.

Recommended specs are 16 gb ram, 8 core cpu, and an SSD.
Even so, your biggest problem is Ram.

As bobjp mentioned, definitely upgrade the RAM; though depending on your situation it may not easily be possible both by device capability and cost.
Are you able to at least successfully export a WAV or MP3 file from MuseScore 4 with Muse Sounds?
