New instruments

• Apr 4, 2019 - 05:11

I just downloaded MUSESCORE and am running through the instructional videos. And trying to use what I learn right away. So far so good, but there are challenges!

I would like to see the mandolin family of instruments added as follows:
Mandolin (same pitches and clef as violin)
Mandola (tenor mandola, so same pitches as viola, but reading G clef an octave down)
Mandocello (same pitches and clef as cello)

The MIDI sounds would probably better be similar to a guitar than to the violin family.

While i have entered these into my first score manually, I haven't figured out yet how to modify the instrument list. I will be writing for this family much of the time.

Thanks

When the instruments dialog is open type "Mand" into the search box below the list of instruments you can add and it will search for all of the instruments that contain the letters mand including all mandolins. You can add the instruments from this list.
