MuseSound playback issue with ties
I'm on MacOS, MuseScore Studio 4.4.3, Muse Guitars Vol. 1 (dated Dec 8, 2023) from MuseHub. And the Muse Sampler Library version is 0.100.6
Can anyone confirm this behavior on Windows by downloading the score, opening it and listening during playback.

I downloaded the score. It's set for Electric Guitar, and it sounds fine to me. When I hear it online the notes do swell in volume and has a twang to it. My OS is Windows 11.

Did the score open that way for you, specifically with the track set to an MSBasic guitar?
I saved it with Muse Guitars>Electric LP–Clean so I'd think it would have opened that way for you—unless perhaps an MS Basic guitar is an automatic fallback for those who don't have Muse Guitars installed.
Cearly the matters reported are Muse Sounds issues. When I switch to MS Basic>Clean Guitar I don't hear any of the issues reported.
Also curious, regarding Muse Guitars Vol. 1 (dated Dec 8, 2023) is that the latest revision of Muse Guitars? MuseHub says I'm up to date.

I don't know. Perhaps someone can help with that.
What a strange effect. It's like a sample that was looped too far back, thereby causing a volume mismatch. However, there is also a weird buzz
to the 'echo' so it's not a loop back.
Does it have the same problem with a full breve in 8/4 timing?

@yonah_ag
Thanks for your insightful question.
To address it I updated example score on .com adding a a third line with measures of 8/4. Each measure holds a full breve, so the notes are of the same duration as those on line 2, but without ties—and the result sounds identical to me.
I find the first line more peculiar ... because the note of the next measure start before the current measure is complete.
As yet no reply from MuseHub/MuseSounds regarding the post I made on their forum.

So it looks like this effect is part of the sound sample and that the ties were incidental. Probably just as well that TAB Ring can't be ported to MS4 yet as it may reveal more of these issues with the increased sustain.

Indeed. Which leads to the question: How's this supposed to widely useful? I don't think a note of that length is an extreme use case. nor should it stress test the system. And I updated the original score to reflect that the issue don't go away until tempo reaches ♩= 160.

Sad.
And it's a week tomorrow that I posted on MuseHub. Still no reply.
UPDATE: I did get a reply from Mathew in my Musehub post.

Looks like it's been accepted as a bug so hopefully there will soon be a fix.
It may not have anything to do with ties. But rather having to hold a note that long with another note after it.
Create three measures at 1/4 note =80. Put a C Whole note in each. Put a hold over each. Define the first as 200%. The second as 300% and the third at 400%. In the first two measures, the note fades out and resounds just before the next note. The final note just fades out.
Distortion sound seems to not resound.
