Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the features of methods for working with sound using the MuseScore 4.2 music notation software. Research methodology. The article uses empirical, empirical-theoretical, and theoretical research methods. Scientific novelty lies in the development of effective, target methods to manipulate sound in an updated Musiccore editor 4.2. These technologies are dramatically accelerated and improve the process of arranging and compositions for a broad range of instruments (piano, guitar, orchestras, and good scores) and styles. The results reveal new perspectives for musical information technologies in practice of music professionals (composers, producers, sound directors) and in the modern music world. Conclusions. MuseScore 4.2 is a popular music notation software widely used by composers and arrangers to write music for film, television, classical music, and jazz. It allows musicians to create, edit, and print sheet music, as well as play music using synthesised sounds. MuseScore has an intuitive and easy-to-learn interface, making it accessible even to beginners, and allows you to quickly enter musical data from both a computer keyboard and an external MIDI keyboard. The programme supports importing and exporting data in common formats: MIDI, Music XML, and Band-in-a-Box files can also be imported. The programme is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems, providing wide access for users. MuseScore 4.2 has a large and active user community where you can get help and share your work. Developers are constantly working to improve the programme, adding new features and improving existing ones.
