Muse Piano accents are inconsistent #22971
Comments
See also the commentary, #14736 and #14988. About the fz. It actually works, but instead of affecting a single note/chord, it affects all subsequent ones. In short, currently fz is played exactly the same as mp and mf (the latter are the same in loudness). (To convince you: enter a series of identical piano notes, place mp, mf and fz everywhere, click play and you will not hear the loudness difference throughout.) It's about MuseScore Basic. In Muse Sounds, everything is almost the same, only mp and mf differ slightly in loudness, and fz is something in between mp and mf.
I do not know if it is appropriate for me to talk about this, but some sources cite this table as an indication of the interpretation of force/intensity of attack. Of course, it is controversial and useless to prove the correctness of this table, but it would be nice to use this interpretation, as an option, in MuseScore Studio. |
Well, yes, I wouldn't necessarily completely agree with that either, but it would be better than what Muse Piano has now. fz is absolutely not an indication to change to a new dynamic at any rate, and you're right, that's how MuseScore seems to interpret it, even with MS Basic. In fact it seems to treat it exactly the same as mf which is very odd. |
I've noticed that sf at ff also makes it quieter. It's like it treats sf as f for a single note regardless and so at prewritten f, there's no difference between the sf and f and at ff it acts as a reverse accent! So sf only really acts like sf at mf or quieter. As someone who sees sf in ff passages on a regular basis, this is not what I would expect to happen. 2024-05-25-20-35-28.mp4 |
@sampleeditor @matthewreadbass @RomanPudashkin looks like we might need to review which of our accents are triggering what samples (and in what way) for Muse Sounds. For me, the worst is applying an accent but hearing no change in playback. (The precise degree of volume/velocity alteration is obviously somewhat more subjective). Even a uniform change in volume/velocity for all accent marks could be a good starting point. |
