Differences using Basic Strings Violin vs using Muse Sounds/Muse strings/Violin(solo)
Muted all but Violin 1 for clarity.
1. Note Tied across bar lines playing both notes - e.g. see measures 8, 12 and 16 and many more. Basic is correct; Muse strings plays two notes.
Dynamics: erratic changes in loudness. e.g. the F in bars 5 and 9 and the D in bar 12 (which should be tied as well) suddenly softer. Basic is correct; Muse strings is erratic. Diminuendo and Crescendo are not always as expected.

Consider that most of your dynamic marks are not associated with notes. The very first p violin 2 staff is set to the top line of the viola staff. Measure 3 an4 you have an mp that diminuendos into .....mp. Most of the dynamics at the end of a hairpin are set to nothing or a barline. These dynamics and hair pins won't work. Set up dynamics on notes first. Then set hairpins "in between" them. Accents on soft notes don't seem to make much sense.
I have the same MU4 you do. The ties work.
Using Muse sounds.
I didn't try Basic sounds.

Here is another example - Test Score. a few bars with a single cello
Simply changing the instrument from Muse Strings solo cello to Basic cello it is clear that the accent tenuto works for Basic but not for Muse Strings cello.
