Different dynamic velocity for musescore

• Dec 15, 2022 - 12:00

I want to indicate mezzo forte on a note, but I want the mezzo forte to actually play the velocity of a forte or fortissimo. In Musescore 3.6, you would just have to go to properties and alter the velocity. But in Musescore 4 there's only options for the visual features. I even saw the Youtube video they uploaded on dynamics but the playback features option is not available for any dynamics.

The velocity is now a note-only thing, so set it on those notes directly instead.

The new playback engine no longer builds on top of raw MIDI and the volume of a note does not necessarily map straight onto velocity anymore. It is stated that some kind of Volume/Velocity Lane editing will be made available in one of the next feature updates.

I can't get the velocity to make any changes? I tried setting the velocity to 2 compared to the default of 64, as an extreme test-case, and it sounded literally the exact same. Is this a bug or is there literally no fine control over volume levels any more?
