MultiPercussion Parts

In concert band and marching band writing, multi percussion parts are essential. Adding this will allow MuseScore to compete with big name programs. This involves allowing the composer to jump between multiple parts (e.g. Percussion 1: Timpani, Snare Drum, Bass Drum, Suspended Cymbal ect.) and hear the audio. Adding this one feature will allow MuseScore to be used in many professional settings.

You mean the ability to change

1/ Change instrument along a staff (which is currently possible if they are melodic or percussion but not from one to another)

2/ The ability to change staff type along a staff (from standard to percussion and back)

3/ The ability to change the number of lines along a staff

Correct ?

Using your example

Percussion 1: Timpani, Snare Drum, Bass Drum, Suspended Cymbal

It's possible with MuseScore 2.0.2 to have Snare Drum, Bass Drum, Suspended Cymbal (assuming you want them on 1 line, or 5 lines)

But it's not possible to move from Timpani (pitched percussion, 5 lines) to Snare Drum (unpitched percussion, one line).

That being said, there are workarounds, using "hide empty staves" and instrument changes.
