Release notes for MuseScore 2.2

5年前更新

MuseScore 2.2 was released March 27, 2018.

New features

  • New MuseScore_General.sf3 soundfont
  • Fix #5163: MIDI output
  • Fix #208006: Built-in MP3 support for Windows (finding and installing third-party DLL no longer necessary)
  • Fix #183336: Search field in New Score Wizard template chooser
  • Fix #56451, fix #44666: Option to select whether to "Play repeats" for jump elements (D.S. al Coda, etc.)
  • Fix #269672: Selected notes are highlighted on the piano keyboard
  • Fix #184246: Select / More: ability to distinguish same pitch on a specific string in tablature
  • Fix #239021: All elements are now selectable by voice
  • Fix #198486: Copy and paste of multiple fretboards
  • Fix #175886: Fretboards can be added to chord symbols

Known incompatibilities with previous 2.x

  • Improvements to the handling of voltas and repeats come with some compatibility issues. Where 2.1 and before required the repeat list of a volta to be set to the nth time that measure/volta is encountered (against intuition and against the existing voltas from the palette), 2.2 now requires the repeat list to reflect the human-readable logic of being the n th repeat in total. In consequence, some files created in 2.1 and before might be played with a different roadmap, especially if there are more than 2 voltas to a given repeat. It can be fixed by editing the volta's repeat list in Volta Properties (accessed via secondary-click).

    In short, 2.2 now behaves like earlier versions should have behaved and workarounds employed in older version to get the playback right are no longer needed (and will need to be reverted).

  • In 2.2, jumps have a new property, "With repeats," which if enabled causes playback to take repeats. Using this new feature in a score does not bar you from also editing that score using previous versions of MuseScore 2, but obviously those versions do not support this feature, either in playback or in saving files.

  • MuseScore 2.2 comes with a slightly different SoundFont called MuseScore_General.sf3, so your scores might sound a little bit different (hopefully better!). If you have saved custom synthesizer settings in a given score or as a new default, if those settings contain a reference to the old FluidR3Mono_GM.sf3, you might need to manually update those settings. For most users, the change to FluidR3Mono_GM should be automatic, seamless, and barely noticeable. If you have previously uploaded a score to MuseScore.com using the default playback and would like to get the new sounds, simply update your score.

See also Incompatibilities between 2.1 and previous versions, which also apply between MuseScore 2.2 and versions before 2.1.
