Project
- Create score with 2 staves 2 voices per staff (e.g. treble clef Tenor/Lead; bass clef baritone and bass)
- Create individual parts for each voice (e.g voice 1 Treble Clef tenor; voice 2 Treble Clef lead; voice 1 bass clef baritone voice 2 bass clef bass).
- Click "export parts".
- Select midi
Lead and Tenor midi files will be the same (no separation into individual parts). Bass and Bari files are blank.

Does it work for you when not combining parts on a single staff - that is, when not using the voices-to-parts feature?
I made a new score with one part (voice) per staff. There are four instruments--Tenor, Lead, Baritone, and Bass.
I created individual parts for each staff--Tenor Lead Baritone and Bass.
I used the "export parts" feature.
Result:
The tenor midi was exported correctly, but the baritone, bass, and lead midi files were all empty.
See attached.

I can confirm that this is NOT only related to parts from voices. There is also a problem when generating regular parts. The first Part is generated corretly, the other parts are empty.
Does this happen with File > Export parts (with main score being the active tab) or also on File > Export (with any of the parts being the active tab)?
In reply to Does this happen witg File >… by Jojo-Schmitz
When the active tab is on each individual part, the exact same result happens.
The only midi file with any midi information in it is the tenor. The rest of the files have no midi content or at least no playable content.
Unfortunately, I think this bug expands beyond midi.

I am going to test all media that is exported to see what I get.

Thanks
Created score with four staves (4_staves_export_parts_test)
Tenor
Lead
Baritone
Bass
Changed each part's instrument to "french horn" using mixer.
Created separate parts.
Used "export parts" feature.
I exported parts for all of the following audio formats: wav, mp3, ogg, flacc
They all produced the following results:
4_staves export parts test-Tenor file plays the tenor part in french horn and all other parts using piano.
4_staves export parts test-Lead file plays the lead part in french horn and all other parts using piano.
4_staves export parts test-Bass file plays the bass part in french horn and all other parts using piano.
4_staves export parts test-Baritone file plays the baritone part in french horn and all other parts using piano.
EDIT: Typo in first post. Sorry I did not mean to change the title I will fix it.
I am going to change title to include the other audio formats.
I have 8 staves. For midi, only the first one listed ends up with midi data - but its midi data for all the staves! The other 7 midi files are empty. The wave files each come out with the audio from other tracks too but all the wave files are like this.
Also #289935: When generating MIDI from Parts, only the first part contains midi, other parts are empty. and #289894: MIDI Export of a part NOT working
I confirm that this bug exists.
"Export parts" for audio files does not export parts but instead exports all staves, as is done in "Export". "Export parts" does export correctly for pdf files. This is a major problem for me. I'm using the most current version : 3.1.0.7078 revision: e26f7c4
Fixed in branch master, commit bcbd94a3b4

Same here, using 3.4.1 and Midi export fails - only 1 track is present when importing into DAW. In 2.3.2, this worked perfectly fine.
Unfortunately, I have not viewed any feature that will let me save my Musescore 3 file as Musescore 2, so I am buggered.

This really scared me, so I made a quick check: when I generate midi files from parts everything seems to work well. Used version:
OS: Windows 10 (10.0), Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 3.4.2.9788, revision: 148e43f
The original report was specifically about parts that were generated from multiple voices in the same staff. My guess is that this is still broken, along with several other things about generating parts from multiple voices on a single staff. But the normal case should work fine. Can someone verify this? If you see a way to reproduce a problem without using parts generated
From multiple voices on a single staff let us know precise steps to reproduce the issue.
But to be clear, 2.3.2 didn’t even have the parts from voices feature, so there is no way going back to 2.3.2 would help with that.
Meanwhile, I tried to reproduce a problem with the "Singing Funk" score attached above, and could not - it worked as expected. Here is what I did:
1) load score
2) File / Export Parts
3) choose MIDI as format
4) Save
5) load one of the exported MIDI files - I tried Electric Guitar
Result - as expected, it imported a single staff instrument containing the guitar part
So if you are seeing some sort of problem using this file, we'd need precise steps to reproduce the problem.

I have a score with a single staff for each voice (SATB), but on some measures this further splits to SSATTB, where both soprano/tenor voices are written in the same staff.
I can export each staff as mp3.
I can listen to each voice (soprano 1 and 2) separately muting the other one in the mixer.
When I keep these settings and file > export, the result is an mp3 with both soprano voices.
So I would confirm this bug still exists in 3.5
Or am I missing something?
In order to see if this is a bug or a misunderstanding about how it works, we would need you to attach a score showing the problem, and give us precise steps to reproduce the problem.
And please do so in a new forum topic

I think the original observation concerned the case where also the voices on staves where split into separate parts and then exported. If I understand you correctly, you no not separate the voices but just generate parts from staves.
I have found a workaround:
1. Save the score online.
2. Launch a browser and login to your account in musescore.org.
3. Go to "My Scores" and open the score you just uploaded.
4. Download the score as MIDI.
