I just got musescore to edit my Big band arrangment but when I dragged the MIDI file of the arragment into musescore it lumped all of the parts under piano. How do I fix this??

  1. You can replace each part with the correct instrument.
  2. For each instrument name shown on the left, double-click to get the popup window "Staff/Part properties"
  3. Under "Part properties", click the button "Replace instrument"
  4. On "Select instrument" screen, choose the correct instrument then click OK
  5. Click OK on "Part properties" screen.

If you still have difficulties, it's better to attach the MIDI file and your score (.mscz file). They contain much more information than a picture.
