How to do such drum line ?

• Oct 22, 2017 - 23:35

hi
I'm trying to do the following drum line (see attachment) but no success.
I can only have a kick and crash/cymbal per "beat".
If I try to add other drum sound, it removes one of the other.
any idea please ?

hi
I'm on Windows 10 64bit (surface pro 3) and I'm using Musescore Portable 2.1.0
To modify the drum staves, I push key N.
Then, I have selection of drum sound.
Once I click on one to start drag & drop, it shows me the error I shared before (musescore is crashing)

One thing to point out is that it is not necessary it drag and note from the drum palette to the score. However, dragging the note should not cause a crash.

Indeed, but I don't know that it was ever intended to work. Probably nothing should happen if you try dragging from the drum window - it was never designed to work that way as far as I know. Most likely there would be other problems with this as well even if this crash were fixed, although some day it could be interesting toook at supporting this.

Meanwhile, better to stick to the supported / documented methods of entering drum notation.

In order to help, we'd need you to attach the score you ar ehaving trouble with and to give precise step by step instructions to reproduce the problem.

The crash is certainly a bug - the program should never crash. But probably the original problem you are describing is just from not using the multiple voices correctly. So we'd need to see what you are doing in order to suggest what you should be doing instead.
