Comment on MuseScore 4: Moving from notation software to composition softwareparent

Comments

As soon as I saw this pop up on HN, I thought “hey, MuseScore — isn’t that the notation software Tantacrul loves to hate?”. I’m not a composer, and I’d never heard of let alone used MuseScore before stumbling on his videos a couple of weeks ago. What a great surprise to see they’ve been listening to their critics!

After finding his channel I slowly worked my way through watching all his videos. One of my favourites is about “sonification”, or creating sound from of data. Might be quite interesting to the HN crowd: https://youtu.be/Ocq3NeudsVk

Tantacrul is now the head of design for MuseScore. Presumably he doesn't totally hate it anymore.

Even in his video he said he liked many parts of MuseScore — he never said he totally hated it. His critique of it was much more entertaining than scathing.
