I need information about "synthesizer" and "sound fonts"

• Feb 26, 2019 - 17:14

I'm a newbie.
When I choose the audio source "synthesizer", which will be needed for my application, I get no sound. Seems to have something to do with "sound fonts".
Can you get me started on this?

Thanks, but the synthesizer never did work. The general sound font is installed and set as default, but nothing.

Note: In case of interference with other programs, esp. on Windows, go into your soundcard configuration from Control Panel...
Did you check the settings in the I/O tab of Preferences?

Please include as much of the following information as you know and limit each issue to one report:
- Version/revision of MuseScore you are using (e.g. version 3.0, revision 871c8ce). Check Help → About... (Mac: MuseScore → About MuseScore...).
- Operating system being used (e.g. Windows 7, macOS 10.12 or Ubuntu 14.04)

I'm using MuseScore 3.0.2 on macOS 10.13.6.

And my problem occurs when trying to play a score on MuseScore.com
