Begrippenlijst
Listed below are technicial terms and musical terms, which are frequently used in MuseScore or in the Handbook. Links to relevant handbook chapter are provided. To help musicians who are capable of reading a notation but do not know its proper name, image is provided. This chapter does not aim to be a dictionary of all musical notations, see External links.
De verschillen tussen Amerikaans Engels en Brits Engels worden respectievelijk aangegeven met "(AE)" en "(BE)". Redacteuren en vertalers van dit hoofdstuk dienen voor elke term een aparte vermelding toe te voegen.
A
Acciaccatura (korte voorslag)
A short grace note which appears as a small note with a stroke through the stem. Musescore creates a quick playback, the playback duration is not affected by duration of the parent note.
Voorteken
An accidental is a sign appearing in front of a note that raises or lowers its pitch. See Entering notes and rests:Accidentals. chapter. Musescore creates playback for common accidentals only, they includes sharps, flats, naturals, double sharps, double flats, and triple flats. To create microtonal accidentals such as quarter tone, see Tuning systems, microtonal notation system, and playback Chapter.
Ambitus/Toonbereik
Note (or vocal) range used in a staff. Used particularly in early music. See Ambitus chapter.
Anacrouse
See Pickup measure.
Verankering
Het bevestigingspunt aan de partituur van objecten zoals tekst en lijnen: Wanneer het object wordt versleept, verschijnt het anker als een kleine bruine cirkel die met het object is verbonden door een stippellijn. Afhankelijk van het geselecteerde object kan het anker worden bevestigd aan (a) een noot (bijv. vingerzetting), (b) een notenbalklijn (bijv. notenbalktekst) of (c) een maatstreep (bijv. herhalingen).
Appogiatura (lange voorslag)
A long grace note which takes value from its associated note. Musescore creates playback as such. It is acceptable to execute written appoggiatura as acciaccatura nowadays but Musescore does not create such playback. Appoggiatura's functions include: passing tone, anticipation, struck suspension, and escape tone.\
Arpeggio
An arpeggio tells the performer to break up the chord into the constituent notes, playing them separately and one after the other. The arrow arpeggio symbol indicates the direction in which the player should play the notes of the chord. See Arpeggios and glissandi chapter.\
Articulatie
A marking or symbol indicating how a note should be played, usually by altering the length of a note or shaping its attack and decay. See Articulation chapter.
B
Maat

Maatstreep

Indicates strum. See Slash chord (Wikipedia).
Schuine streep-notatie
A form of music notation using slash marks placed on or above/below the staff to indicate the rhythm of an accompaniment: often found in association with chord symbols. There are two types: (1) Slash notation consists of a rhythm slash on each beat: the exact interpretation is left to the player (see Fill with slashes); (2) Rhythmic slash notation indicates the precise rhythm for the accompaniment (see Toggle rhythmic slash notation).
Legatoboog
A curved line over or under two or more notes, meaning that the notes will be played smooth and connected (legato). See Slur chapter. A slur is not a tie.
Solmisation
see Endecalineo
SoundFont
A virtual instrument format supported by MuseScore. A SoundFont is a special type of file (extension .sf2, or .sf3 if compressed) containing sound samples of one or more musical instruments. In effect, a virtual synthesizer which acts as a sound source for MIDI files. MuseScore 4 comes with its own native soundfont, MS Basic. See SoundFont chapter.

Notenbalkafstand
See Spatium (above).
Notenbalk / Notenbalken

T
Tekst
A Musescore Text object is an object that contains individual characters that can be entered and removed by using (typing on) a computer keyboard. See Entering and editing text chapter.
Overbinding
A curved line between two adjacent notes of the same pitch to indicate a single note of combined duration. See Tie chapter. A tie is not a slur.
Kwartnoot + overbinding + kwartnoot = halve noot
Kwartnoot + overbinding + achtste noot = gepunteerde kwartnoot
Kwartnoot + overbinding + achtste noot + overbinding + zestiende noot = Dubbel gepunteerde kwartnoot
Transpositie
The act of moving the pitches of one or more notes up or down by a constant interval. See Transposition chapter. There may be several reasons for transposing a piece, for example:
De toonhoogte is te laag of te hoog voor een zanger. In dat geval moet het hele orkest ook getransponeerd worden – iets wat eenvoudig te doen is met MuseScore.
De partij is geschreven voor een specifiek instrument, maar moet door een ander instrument worden gespeeld.
De partituur is geschreven voor een orkest en je wilt horen hoe de individuele instrumenten klinken. Hiervoor moeten de getransponeerde instrumentpartijen worden omgezet naar werkelijke toonhoogte.
Een donkerder of juist een helderder geluid is gewenst.
Triool
See tuplet.
Antimetrisch figuur
A tuplet divides its next higher note value by a number of notes other than given by the time signature. See Tuplet chapter. For example a triplet divides the next higher note value into three parts, rather than two. Tuplets may be: triplets, duplets, quintuplets, and other.
U
Upbeat
See pickup measure.
V
Geluidssterkte
A property of objects inside Musescore that controls how loudly note(s) are played, see musescore 3 handbook Loudness of a note chapter. Velocity property of notes are edited using Properties panel: Playback tab, see Properties panel chapter.
Stem
1. In Musescore, voice is a software feature, you can use up to 4 voices per staff, see Working with multiple voices, also see staff.
2. De muzikale term "stem" verwijst naar een muzikale lijn of partij die een eigen ritme kan hebben. MuseScore heeft geen functie om precies dit idee te implementeren. Als de stemfunctie niet aan je behoeften voldoet, kun je in plaats daarvan afzonderlijke instrumenten toevoegen.
Volta
In a repeated section of music, it is common for the last few measures of the section to differ. Markings called voltas are used to indicate how the section is to be ended each time. These markings are often referred to simply as endings. See Volta chapter.
W
Geschreven toonhoogte
Transposing instruments (such as the clarinet, French horn, trumpet etc.) are notated at a different pitch (and key signature) to how they sound. The notated pitch is called the written pitch. Contrast with concert pitch. See Staff / Part properties chapter.
