Notes Plugin Not working correctly

• Jul 12, 2019 - 22:11

It seems like the notes are only working properly if you change the notes in the score.
Looks like it only does Treble Clef.

If the notes are in Bass Clef, then the Notes text is completely different.
Is there a way around that?

It's still not what you are perceiving the problem to be. The note at the end oday the line is an E, not a C, and that's exactly what the text says. It would be a C if that were treble clef, but it is not - it is bass clef.

Perhaps you aren't familiar with how to read bass clef? The spaces are, bottom to top, A-C-E-G. If you do a web search you can probably find some good resources to help with learning to read music.

That's probably it.dont recall seeing this before years ago. (It probably was there, but didn't have any)

I was used to a=a c=c for the notes and the letters for the notes.
Now it can be shifted so I need to pay attention.

Guess as a "newbie" again I am thinking why not place the note up higher if it will sound the same and remove that other notation.

The E on the bass clef is the E below middle C. The C on the treble clef is an octave above middle C. There are many other clefs used as well, you can see most of them in the advanced palette in MuseScore. The clef tells where a certain note is (treble wraps around the G above middle C, bass straddles F below middle C), then all other notes are relative to it. Treble and Bass clefs are by far the most common. Tenor and Alto clefs are rather common in classical music and the others (except tab and percussion) are rarely used today. The meanings of the symbols on TAB and percussion staves are far different than on the other staves.

MuseScore can be used as a tool for learning to read music. The status bar at the bottom left of the MuseScore window tells you the pitch of a note. C4 is middle C, C5 is an octave above, C2 is 2 octaves below and so forth. Octaves change on C. This should help you understand the relationship between notes a little better.

Guess there is more to it..
I have a Midi file, that looks fine in Musescore, but on my PSR 975 it shows something different.
If I play the notes from Musescore, it's real bad lol.. but playing it along on the keyboard it's fine.

I opened it in Cakewalk and it's showing correctly there.
I attached an image from both. so you can see the difference
Tried also Cubase, and it's showing correctly there too.
Musescore seems to be different.

How does this relate to the topic you've been discussing where the notes are not what you think they should be? This score doesn't even come close to the picture you showed. Upload the score with the picture of the staff with all of the clef changes and we could look at that and help you make sense of it.

I see now, it's just the last staff. You must have a transposition set in you other device then. When I import the midi, these are the concert pitch notes in the original picture. I can't see the comparison picture for A beautiful noise you showed.
