Multimeasure rests not importing correctly from a MusicXML File

• Feb 27, 2025 - 13:45

Hi All -

I am a high school band director who creates a lot of assignments in MusicFirsts PracticeFirst platform. In order to do that, I scan in music and open it in PhotoScore Ultimate. I make the corrections and export it as musicXML. When I open the file in MuseScore Studio, the multimeasure rests (I correct them in photoscore to the correct number of rests) only import as a single bar rest. This creates ALOT of work trying to fix the measures in Musescore. Can someone recommend a fix or maybe a better program to use for scanning in music and creating XML files. I also use NEWZIK, but their AI Livescore still makes a few mistakes.

I have posted the PDF of the Part, the XML file export that was corrected to the part in PhotoScore Ultimate and MuseScore File after it was imported.

Thanks for your help!

You must insert empty measures in that places. "Add -> Measures -> Insert Measures ...".
The PDF OMR does not recognize the multimeasure rest but only the single one. So fill it in yourself.
