Looking for plugins that can automatically separate different articulations in a track to different track

• Mar 24, 2025 - 08:49

As a composer writing medium to large orchestral compositions, I really like the Musescore workflow, but I still need to import my Musescore compositions into my DAW via MIDI File. This is a tedious and error-prone process where I need to separate different articulations into different tracks.

I'd like to have a plugin that can separate the different articulations in the full score or selected tracks into different tracks. Is this possible?

Thanks a lot!

You want a plugin to place all the staccato notes in one staff and all the marcato and accento and tenuto notes in another for each? What about notes that are (for example) both staccato and marcato? And presumably notes that don't have any articulation on them in still another staff?

Or have I misunderstood you altogether?

What you ask for is impossible (or at least complex to implement) I fear. The most reasonable way could be to create a plugin that identifies the different types of articulation by associating them with the 'CHORD' element they refer to. At this point the user should be able to select both the notes with that specific articulation and the notes without that articulation. The user could then manually create the tracks with the separate articulations with copy & paste. What remains is to find a volunteer who has the time, the desire and the interest to write this plugin.
