Scordatura in violin does not sound

• Nov 26, 2024 - 02:51

The top staff is a scordatura violin using the Muse Sounds solo violin patch (Violin 1 (Solo) patch to be precise). The bottom staff is the same thing except I used the soundfont that comes built into Musescore, namely MSBasic. The scordatura note doesn't sound using Muse Sounds (Violin 2 (Solo) patch doesn't work either) but does sound using MSBasic. Is that by design or is it a bug? Thanks!

That was my first thought, but the Muse Sounds viola sounds good but cannot seem to properly play rapid lines, and the MSBasic viola sounds like an 8-bit arcade viola. Doesn't matter anyway since the piece is for solo Violin, which in Muse Sounds sounds very nice indeed.
