Musescore playing bad notes

• Jan 6, 2025 - 17:32

I've had this a lot in this score, where Musescore just plays bad notes. I;ve tried deleting and then re-entering the notes, but this doesn't help. I've also tried changing instruments, but again - no difference. I'm attaching the score here. See bar 645, top line, as an example.
What's quite weird is you don't always get the same bad notes....
Any thoughts would be VERY welcome.

I don't hear any "bad notes" in measure 645, in "Main Characters" staff (lyric: "pavement had one of her toes in a pinch"). I listened only from about m.640-650, so can't comment about "bad notes" elsewhere.

That's weird.
I wanted to attach a video or audio of how it plays on my laptop, but mp3's or mp4's are not supported.
Interestingly, when I copy a selection to a new file, the bad notes disappear. Maybe there's corruption in the larger file. Is there any way of knowing?

I hear it in your video: the six B naturals are playing different notes from one another. At least one of them is playing approximately B half-flat and at least one more is playing B half-sharp. I don't think that any of them get a full half-tone away from B natural?

However, on my computer they all play normally. Curious: look at your Mixer: what soundfont are you using? Mine is using the "MS Basic". See what happens if you change the soundfont?
