So im writing for strings. All voices sound Normal to begin with.
I follow the directions to make a voice pizzicato. Later, when I want to go back to a Normal (arco) sound, I follow the same directions and the sound remains pizz.
I've tried making it Tremolo too and it says at pizz.
If i delete the "pizz" staff text, the sound goes back to Normal, expectedly.
In other words, a "Pizz" staff text (and related channel switch) will override all future channel switches....
Please help, Im doing this for school and we need a midi audio file for the final. I dont want to have to have one track for pizz and fake the voice later by adding crazy out-of-range accompaniments for the rest!
Thanks y'all!

In the "test" folder of MuseScore you find a testfile "articulation.msc" which switches between pizzicato and "normal" (arco). This testfile works for me. Please right click on the arco string and select "staff text properties". Channel and "normal" must be selected to switch back to arco.
