Multiple Parts in MuseScore 4
So I'm working on a score in MS4 transferring an old jazz tune (5 bone parts, 5 trumpet parts, 5 sax parts, and a rhythm section) when something apparently became corrupt:
- I saw 8 parts for Trumpet 1 and 3 parts for Trumpet 5 all named "Trumpet in Bb 1."
- Musescore would hang for 60 seconds when I attempted to close and restart it due to this.
- I managed to renamed all the Trumpet 1 parts to Trumpet 1, Trumpet 1a thru Trumpet 1g and did the same for the Trumpet 5 part (Trumpet 5, Trumpet 5a and Trumpet 5b.)
-
Musescore now closes normally (quickly).
-
However now when I go into File, Parts I still see all the extra parts.
- When I open MuseScore, open the chart in question and hit "I", I see the correct number of parts ( 5 trumpets) but again all the trumpet parts are labeled "Trumpet in Bb"
I've included two jpegs - one labeled "Parts screenshot.jpeg" and one labeled "Instrument screenshot.jpeg" so one can see what I'm experiencing.
Many thanks in advance for the help in solving this.

We might need the score.

I could give it to a specific person to view but I'm converting my friend's 1980s music score to an electronic version and probably can't make it a public document.
On another note, I tried exporting the score to a MusicXML file. MS4 crashed when attempting to export it. If it matters, I'm on a MacBook Pro, 16G of memory, 2.5Ghz quad core intel processor, running Montery 12.6.2...
