Color struck keys on Piano Keyboard to correspond with color of voices in score

• Mar 7, 2019 - 02:25

When playing back score with Piano Keyboard shown, have voices colored on the keys correspond with the voices colored in the score. For example: Voice 1 = blue, 2 = green, 3 = orange, 4= purple.
Right now (as of v. 3.0.4.21117) all voices struck on the keyboard are colored the same - blue.

I'm wondering about the same thing. I found another similar posts and it seems that this isn't possible.

It would be nice to have it the way Synthesia does.

Unfortunately, it is not possible, yet.

The piano highlighted key routine has only one possible color to all the sounding notes.

We can change that color into the "Preferences" menu, "Advanced" tab, "ui/piano(highlightcolor" option. But... It will change the only one available color to ALL the notes.

For the record, as feature requests go, this is not a very common one, which is one reaosn why it hasn't happened yet. But if enough people do request it to motivate one of the many developers who volunteer their time to improve this software, there' no reason it can't happen eventually!

Musescore is the app for score creation, not for learning piano. Anyway, I do have workaround. I also have a retro app (captured "java midi player"), which distinguishes left and right hands with different colors. It supports hundreds instruments, scales, pitch adjustment, metronome, playlist and many more but it lacks sheet music, reverb adjustment and sustain indication. Its user interface look very old though. java_midi_player.png
