License

MuseScore is licensed under GPL version 2.0. See LICENSE.GPL in the same directory.

Packages

  • aeolus: Clone of Aeolus. Disabled by default in the stable releases. See http://dev-list.musescore.org/Aeolus-Organ-Synth-td7578364.html. Kept as an example of how to integrate with a complex synthesizer.

  • assets: Graphical assets, use them if you need a MuseScore icon. For logo, color, etc., see https://musescore.org/en/about/logos-and-graphics.

  • awl: Audio Widget Library, from the MusE project.

  • build: Utility files for build.

  • bww2mxml: Command line tool to convert BWW files to MusicXML. BWW parser is used by MuseScore to import BWW files.

  • demos: A few MuseScore files to demonstrate what can be done.

  • fluid: Clone of FluidSynth@sourceforge, ported to C++ and customized. Code now at fluidsynth@github.

  • fonts: Contains fontforge source (sfd) + ttf/otf fonts. MuseScore includes the "Emmentaler" font from the Lilypond project.

  • libmscore: Data model of MuseScore.

  • mscore: Main code for the MuseScore UI.

  • msynth: Abstract interface to Fluid + Aeolus.

  • mtest: Unit testing using QTest.

  • omr: Optical music recognition.

  • share: Files moved to /usr/share/... on install.

  • test: Old tests. Should move to mtest.

  • vtest: Visual tests. Compare reference images with current implementation.

  • thirdparty: Contains projects which are included for convenience, usually to integrate them into the build system to make them available for all supported platforms.

Building

Read the developer handbook for a complete build walkthrough and a list of dependencies.

Getting sources

If using git to download repo of entire code history, type:

git clone https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore.git
cd MuseScore

Otherwise, you can just download the latest source release tarball from the Releases page, and then from your download directory type:

tar xzf MuseScore-x.x.x.tar.gz
cd MuseScore-x.x.x

Release Build

To compile MuseScore, type:

make release

If something goes wrong, then remove the whole build subdirectory with make clean and start new with make release.

Running

To start MuseScore, type:

./build.release/mscore/mscore

The Start Center window will appear on every invocation until you disable that setting via the "Preferences" dialog.

Installing

To install to default prefix using root user, type:

sudo make install

Debug Build

A debug version can be built by doing make debug instead of make release.

To run the debug version, type:

./build.debug/mscore/mscore

Testing

See mtest/README.md or the developer handbook for instructions on how to run the test suite.

The new script testing facility is also available to create your own automated tests. Please try it out!
