Can You Make Rests Sound Less Choppy?
Is there a way to make the rests in music sound less choppy? The sound just suddenly ends when there is a rest, when one actually plays music there is always residuale sound or reverb after the note has ended. Is there a way to accomplish this in Musescore?

If you're referring to a piano or even a guitar, you can put in a pedal mark that extends to the rest, this will extends it's decay to that point. If you're talking about a trumpet, the sound stops when the musician stops blowing.

P.s.: Mike, could the piano roll feature work?

I don't think so because I don't think it allows for volume control. A piano pedal, even if made invisible would extend the decay to the end of the rest and fade out the note.
I think you have to use the REVERBERATION sound effect on the SYNTHESIZER.
1) Select: "SEE" menu.
2) Select: "SYNTHESIZER" option.
3) Select: "MASTER EFFECTS" tab.
4) Select on the "A EFFECT" box (left side), and select: "ZITA1"
5) You can set the REVERBERATION sound effect you like with the ZITA controls.
Please, see the attached image to set the ZITA controls to get a typical "standard" REVERBERATION sound effect (like a typical concert stage).
