disable string portamento when not notated?

• Mar 13, 2024 - 18:51

musescore will occasionally playback string instrument notes with a portamento effect, despite there being no portamento or glissando notated.

happens both with solo strings and string sections.

is there any way to disable this, or is it baked/hardcoded into the samples?

In the mixer, you can select the sound you want to use. For example for violin sections you have the choice of "Violins 1" or "Violins 2". These labels do not refer to desks, they refer to playing style. "1" is more "expressive" than 2. That's all. So, solo violin 1, has all the portamento. Solo violin 2 has much less.

Depending on the music "1" might fit. I haven't found any yet. But you never know. In all cases so far, I use "2".
