Muse Strings Reviews

The violins, especially the solo ones, sound like trumpets bought on Temu and played by a 2-year-old elephant… What a disappointement: the previous MuseStrings were a lot better. Please improve them.

Doesn’t sound anything like a violin. More like someone playing on a saw

Good ensemble performance, while solo needs some improvement (especially both violin I and II solo which sound really weird). And, yes, a more aggressive play option is welcome.

If this pack had an option for strings to play a little more aggressively, it'd be perfect

All seems to be well. The Violin does sound a bit strange, but leaps better than the MS Sounds Violin. It sounds much better in full sections than in solos. If you frequently compose using string-sections, this is a must.

bad solo strings

I LOVE Muse sounds and the idea of having free great sounds is amazing, but I feel they have been made worse. It seems that now you guys can charge people, you are making them sound worse. I hope this is not the mistake, as I LOVE Musescore and use it for writting soundtracks that might one day be my source of income. I have a project coming up that needs beautiful string melodies, but now that legato sucks, I don’t know what to do! I have no budget, and I wish I had never updated the strings. I don’t want to stop using Muse Sounds, but if you don’t do something about this issue, I just might have to. I’m sure many other people feel the same way, so please, unless you don’t want people to trust you and maybe decide on their own to buy products, you should stop making these stupid mistakes.

The Muse Strings library needs a lot of improvements. First, the solo strings sound as if two people are playing together. I also need a way to remove the vibrato and glissando to make them suitable for fiddle music (Celtic, Bluegrass, Old-time, etc.) Like many users mentioned before, the solo double bass is missing for bands of different types.

It sounded good but I updated it and I feel like it sounds worse

Downloaded MuseHub files (organ and strings) fail to work on existing MuseScore 4.4.4 files, but work splendidly on newly created files after download. Sound icon does not appear on any previous work.

The working version of Muse Strings uninstalled itself from my drive. As I try to reinstall it over Muse Hub, the download keeps stopping at under 10%. How can you fuck up an app so bad? Nothing works anymore! Trying to add notes via the alt + number command instantly crashes the app. But I guess now you can profit off the app that used to be free and working fine huh? Greedy pigs.

Downloaded, but can’t get my Musescore to play these sounds. Downloaded Brass and Woodwinds at the same time and they play just fine.

Works and sounds great!

Lovely sound

aside from some minor problems, this is better than some of the paid versions; I would recommend getting the paid version of solo insrumens for the winds.

Honestly i really prefer the base soundpack that musescore can give

When a certain rhythm is played fast (such as eigth-sixteenth-sixteenth) for two measures, there is a considerable delay compared to the other instruments during playback. There may be other rhythms for which this issue occurs, but I have not found any.

I've used it almost for every track I've made, but there are some things that could be improved, like the Glissando. And It would be great to have a solo contrabass.

The pizz sound is very aggressive and Bartok sounding on random notes. Doesn't sound like pizzicato

Tim

there is random bartók pizz even when i dont need them

Quasaarz

random pizz in string section…despite I don’t need them

occasional-cormorant480

"There is a bug in the new update where you hear the pizzicato sound along with the regular string sound."

gifted-ibis611

just like rorycraigcomposer!!!!!!! Always pizz!!!!!

exhausted-sandpiper53

Not sure what's happened, but the default articulation for any note entered is now Bartok pizzicato instead of arco! I've tried changing the articulation using sound flags but to no avail. This also happens with other sound libraries such as CineStrings. It also applies to both the solo and ensemble libraries. I've tried restarting the app and even my computer but still, nothing has changed. Have you guys made a mistake with the Muse sampler somewhere?
