I use it right now and it is definitely better than it was

[@Squ3aky]

my only complaint with musescore is there is no good sounding cymbal roll, other than that it has been extremely useful for it being a free software

The drumline soli was amazing!!

Thanks so much man!

[@dylanthecurator9068]

Took a little inspiration from Mapes during the drum break, didn't you?

[@Squ3aky]

Yes i did, the drum feature is actually really just a collection of my favorite drum parts from all different kinds of shows. It starts similar to how the Cavaliers 2015 snare feature does, i also took inspiration from shows i have played, and i'm a huge fan of mapes writing style and couldnt resist trying to fit them into this. Nice job noticing that!

[@wilsoncompositions]

Bro, THIS IS AMAZING!!!! I wish that I had the experience to write some brass and woodwind parts for this so I could play this, with my high school or with the RCC Marching Tigers. I freaking love this. You honestly should write for some really big indoor groups or Drum Corps/High School or College Marching bands! Keep on writing music brotha, you have a bright future ahead of you!

[@chriswolf4715]

@Squ3aky, how did you get MuseScore to sound this good? Does it just sound like this "out of box" now?

[@Squ3aky]

There is a free drumline extension you can download that makes all of the marching percussion sound much better.

[@drummist6212]

Great job and really enjoyed listening. Perhaps you could incorporate some music from the Kids show Gravity Falls which would work well maybe!

[@mewthebard]

yo broski! is it cool if i use this for my high school indoor drumline? we won't have a competition but we want to use it for exposing students to indoor drumline. the concept is really well written and it would be cool make a show out of it!

I back this statement up

I wish we could do indoor. Our director said no. We haven’t done indoor for about 8 years. Look up JM Tate High Indoor

[@Judefluff525]

Yo do you want to help me write an indoor show for my high school for next year? I can write the battery parts I just need a front ensemble writer and I love muse too and I have a plan to use a one of their songs in the repertoire

[@majichour2491]

Now all it needs is some woodwind and brass parts and it's a whole show!! Which would be amazing I would love to see a highschool or college pull it off. Who knows, maybe even drum corp., In which case it would just need brass parts.

Hello, I would love to purchase the piano and mallet sheet music from you if possible. I am having my percussion perform this for indoor drumline. Great job on this piece! I'd love to hear back from you. - Mackenzie

[@jbg7163]

Good morning Eric

[@quindumouchelle233]

So I am actually writing my own indoor show based off of some edm songs and I just wanted to ask a few questions: what software did you use? What parts are there? and what is your best advice for the parts to be coherent throughout the show? Thanks!

[@Squ3aky]

I used(and still do) musescore 3 with the drumline extension installed. In this show I had 2 marimbas, 1 vibe, 1 xylo, 1 bells, 1 bass guitar, a piano/synth, auxilary percussion, snare, tenor, bass, and marching cymbals but i would recommend writing for a larger front ensemble if you want your show to sound more full and complete then mine, multiple times i had wished i had more keyboard parts but was too far into the project to add them in. An i hate to say this but i dont really have much good advice for making this sound coherent. My main instrument is snare drum so writing out the keyboard parts took up a majority of my time just trying to figure out how/what would sound good. The best i can say is dont be afraid to start parts over, many times i had something decent that i wasnt happy with that i decided to completely scrap and try again. sometimes it wouldnt work out and i would go back to what i had, but other times i loved the new part and was very happy. Sorry that this is all i can help you with but im only a sophmore in highschool and im really not the greatest when it comes to music theory since the only instrument i play is percussion. Non the less i hope this helps you in some way and id love for you to send me your finished show when you complete it so i can give it a listen! One other thing i would just like to tell you is that if you ever need inspiration for parts, listen to some of the works this guy has made in this link. He writes the drum parts at my Highschool. He is an incredibly talented man and i took a lot of inspiration from his writing. soundcloud.com/frankieburke

[@quindumouchelle233]

Squ3aky thanks for the advice! I know it’s very hard to come up with stuff so I just wanted to get your input on things. I march bass and am also a sophomore in high school. I mainly use finale but I just have some difficulty with the sound libraries so I was curious what you used.

[@CENTRALCHAOS21]

[@killerkminer4835]

do i hear some double beat 9000?

[@JohnSamuelJackson]

This is awesome! I loved every second of it. Part one was very energetic Part two was great with the dynamics and the decrescendo and sudden crescendo at the end was nice! Part three was so amazing, I absolutely loved it. I can tell your knowledge of front ensemble and drumline grew when you got to this part. Like, this part flows the best than the other two parts, but I'm not saying it's bad. I'm saying it's a great improvement. This show is amazing! The only thing I disliked is that some bass drum/cymbal parts were getting cut off at the bottom. I found that the best way to fix that is to right-click the score with a mouse, click page settings, and adjust the scaling and margins.

[@Squ3aky]

Thank you so much man! Im so glad to hear that you enjoyed it. If you thought that sounds good then i think you would love to hear some of the new arrangements ive posted. I recently got a new music notation software that sounds much better and my knowledge of music writing has improved significantly.

[@parkerhewett6731]

Squ3aky I mean it sounds really cool and it’s weird because I was literally thinking it would be cool to make one of these for an indoor setting but I don’t have access to this program and I mentioned that stuff because that’s how I pictured it my head 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@Squ3aky]

@@parkerhewett6731 I made that part triplets simply because i thought the main theme was too simple and repetitive, i thought the triplets made it sound a little more exciting than just eighth notes up and down. The program i used is free btw, im not sure if you already knew this and there is another reason you cant get it. But if you didnt know that then its a free program called MuseScore.

Im sure vibes could double what the bells play, maybe in octave's or major 3rds. Maybe they could play some underlying chords

Now that i have thought about it. I dont really have anything to do RN, maybe I should write some minour chords in with some vibes. They would add a nice soundlayer
