Playback in strings is broken
Accents in strings add huge percussive sounds that are extremely loud and any note played before a rest becomes pizzicato with bad tone and loud volume (added section after music to show example)

Can you be more specific about which note in which measure is playing differently than you expect? I spot checked a few things and didn't notice anything obviously being off.

I’ll send a video later, but on the section where basses and cellos play triplets with accents on downbeats it’s very noticeable, and also after the music I added a section where it plays each string instrument one at a time and it sounds like con legno. I’m on the latest version of musescore by the way

It would really help if you could just name a specific note in a specific measure. As I said, I didn’t notice anything off, but if you tell me a specific note in a specific measure, I can listen to it more carefully.
Could be, though, that your Muse Sounds installation has somehow gotten corrupted and you just need to reinstall the strings.

I don’t have access to my computer for the next 12 hours but I just realized that I haven’t updated musesounds in a while, and the new update for musescore just dropped, so maybe it’s incompatibility with an old version of musesounds and a new version of musescore. I’ll see if there’s an update when I get home, and then I’ll reply again with results

I tried redownloading Muse Strings and checking for updates on both the app and the muse sounds but all is updated. This is how it sounds like in my end: https://youtu.be/dUk4GRrkDAM

For future reference, you can attach filetypes that the webpage won't accept by zipping them. It will accept .ZIP files.

Please, again, say exactly which note of the score is not playing as you expect, and then exactly where in the video that corresponds to.

Sorry, forgot to do that. Measures 10-23 in the contrabasses which correspond to 0:21-0:52 in the video should sound like normal accents instead of percussive hits, and beats 2 and 4 of measures 32, 33, 35, 36, 37, and beat four of 34, which correspond to 1:12 to 1:24 in the video.
I have them playing ord (default) and tried with both classical and regular playing styles yet it’s playing it as con Legno with a loud percussive sound instead of a normal accent.

Doesn't sound at all like that on my system. Do you perhaps have some sort of special VST effect installed?
In reply to Doesn't sound at all like… by Marc Sabatella
Nope, no effects at all. I have other VST being used for other instruments, but it’s the strings that cause the problem. I isolated strings to test that it’s them and not other instruments and it is only strings causing the problem

Thanks for letting me know. I redownloaded musehub, it updated my muse sampler, and now everything works!
