Long Ties Die Out At Slow Tempo
Hello,
I'm having an issue in the newest version where long ties (3 or 4+ whole notes) die out prematurely if the tempo is slower. I've been searching for some fixes but have been unable to find any. I've attached an example with tempo changes to show the issue.
Increasing the tempo to very fast speeds lets the whole tie play out; but the piece I'm inputting requires slow speeds with long sustained tied notes.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

After opening a fresh version of Musescore i've figured out the issue was because of the custom soundfound I was using -_-

I was about to post what you have. I had the same problem once and was told that it is caused by the way some fonts are "looped". Your explanation has now confirmed that observation. I did a workaround with another voice made invisible to extend the long violin tone at pp. (The invisible voice's attack coincided with the entry of other instruments, thereby hiding it own attack.)
Even a violin's bow length is limited and so limiting the max. duration of a note

Yes, thank you, Jojo. Of course. But I was referring to a harmonic at pp which did not last one bar at slow/moderate tempo with the font I used. The explanation about the "loop" was explained by (I think) Marc Sabatella. That's why I used the workaround.
In my view, software should not impose itself in this particular case. A good violinist could make an imperceptible bow change especially within the texture of the accompaniment.

Yes, but a pianist would certainly not

Well, duh...so would an ophecliede, et. al. 🤦♀️
I could not see the the OP's example...V2 won't read it. Was s/he speaking of piano? I was speaking of violin.
And you, Jojo, are speaking of software! 👌 Quite rightly, us usual.
