1) Open the mixer on top of the main control panel.
2) Select the muse sounds for instruments instead of MS basic (select at least 6 or 7 instruments).
3) When trying to playback the score, the entire application slows to a crawl, only occasionally playing the score at the correct tempo until most of the instruments are reverted to MS basic in the mixer.

This is an issue for me too however I have suspected it is either due to poor performance of my computer or that the program isn't optimized.

In order for anyone to investigate a specific problem with a specific score, you would need to attach it here. Also provide system details - what OS, what audio hardware, what CPU, how much RAW, etc.

If all the scores you have tried so far present this issue, it should be simple then to choose one to attach. Having someone else try using your score is the only way to ascertain whether the problem relates to the score itself or to something unique about your system (hardware, drivers, audio settings, other audio software, OS settings). If it turns out to be a system problem, next step would be to ask for help on the Supprot forum and provide more system details. but if it's a problem others can reproduce from your score, it's a software bug that should then be reported on GitHub for further investigation.
