[@Mrphilharmonic]

Thanks SO much for this - so simple!! AND I love the no BS way you present it. Just the things we NEED to know. Perfect!! Please do some more ‘specialist’ demo/info clips for us will you? This was great and saved me HOURS!!!!

[@julianbrezon]

Sure, I'd like to do more Musescore videos. What's a you'd like covered?

[@pianoproductivitypeace]

Awesome just found this - love the direct to the point videos - I am working through your killer leadsheets now as I love that new real book style of lead sheet. All the best with everything, and thanks from Tasmania :)

so helpful!

[@joeykeysade986]

This is dope and helpful, I learned so much from this channel

[@julianbrezon]

Thanks bro!

[@johnchristensen4723]

Thanks... very helpful. I have a question about creating lead sheets within your score... do you implode some relevant info onto a single staff and make a new part... or do you just create a new file and copy/paste? For example.... your bass player doesn't have a melody to work with in your score above... or your piano...

[@julianbrezon]

It depends on the chart but I often will include an extra staff on the rhythm section parts which shows the melody. Typically people don't want more information than they need but cues are often helpful

[@aaronnewman2324]

Thanks! Is there a way to get the actual pitches (like in the native clef of the cues)?

[@julianbrezon]

That would be non typical for a drum set part. For pitched cues you would need a different clef, and then you can write the melody normally and change the note heads to small under the properties inspector

[@racehoglund7251]

When I try this on PC, the switching voices and toggling rhythmic slash notation doesn't quite work... When I toggle rhythmic notation it gets mixed in with the slashes and is very hard to read. How can I get it to look more like regular note-heads/cues just like you did? It's hard to explain here but hopefully you can help :)

[@julianbrezon]

Try making a new blank file and following the steps again. It sounds like you may have had something in voice 3 by mistake

[@racehoglund7251]

@@julianbrezon I ended up getting it to work in the score and found out the issue was mainly happening in the drum part. I just deleted it and tried again which fixed it. Thanks again!

is not working

[@julianbrezon]

Which step are you having trouble with? This should work on version 3 or 4

[@Johndiaz_music]

@@julianbrezon Nevermind, I fix it, the reason why it was not working it was because I didn't enable the 3 voice
