0:00:03.330,0:00:06.790
In MuseScore 4, you can save your [br]scores privately to the cloud,

0:00:06.790,0:00:08.617
and publish them when they're complete.

0:00:08.617,0:00:12.422
All you need is a free musescore.com [br]account to get started.

0:00:12.422,0:00:15.470
If you don’t already have an account, [br]it’s easy to get one by clicking

0:00:15.470,0:00:17.948
“Create new account” [br]from the accounts page.

0:00:17.948,0:00:21.261
This gives you access to over a million [br]scores that you can view online,

0:00:21.261,0:00:24.310
or download and open in [br]MuseScore for further editing.

0:00:24.310,0:00:27.199
Next, all you have to do is save your score,

0:00:27.199,0:00:31.330
and you’ll be offered the choice of storing it [br]either in the cloud or on your computer.

0:00:31.330,0:00:36.294
We’ll select cloud storage for now, give[br]our score a name, and hit "Save".

0:00:36.294,0:00:37.717
The first time we do this,

0:00:37.717,0:00:40.899
MuseScore will ask whether we also [br]want to upload audio with the score.

0:00:40.899,0:00:42.630
Now this is really up to you.

0:00:42.630,0:00:45.992
Thanks to our brand new [br]playback engine, VST support,

0:00:45.992,0:00:48.520
and the amazing new Muse Sounds library,

0:00:48.520,0:00:53.780
your scores can now be heard on musescore.com[br]with beautiful, realistic playback.

0:00:53.780,0:00:58.369
If you’ve installed MuseSounds or are using[br]a VST, then this is the audio you’ll get

0:00:58.369,0:01:00.970
when you publish your score [br]for the world to see.

0:01:00.970,0:01:03.406
However, if you’re just saving [br]privately to the cloud,

0:01:03.406,0:01:06.388
you might choose to keep only [br]the basic playback on the website,

0:01:06.388,0:01:09.926
which can speed up the time it takes [br]MuseScore to save and upload your file.

0:01:09.926,0:01:14.325
We’ll leave this option set to “never” for now,[br]but we can always change it at any time,

0:01:14.325,0:01:18.198
by opening Preferences, and going[br]over here to the “Cloud” section.

0:01:18.198,0:01:22.777
Now that we’ve saved our score, you can[br]easily view it online by clicking this button,

0:01:22.777,0:01:26.800
where you’ll see that your file is in your[br]score manager with private visibility,

0:01:26.800,0:01:29.149
meaning no one else can see it.

0:01:29.149,0:01:33.411
Any changes you save will be here for you[br]– and only you – to see.

0:01:33.411,0:01:36.247
Once you’ve finished working on your score,[br]you can make it public

0:01:36.247,0:01:41.409
for other users to listen to, comment on,[br]like, share and download.

0:01:41.409,0:01:46.450
In MuseScore, just click on the "Publish" tab,[br]and choose “Publish to musescore.com”.

0:01:46.450,0:01:48.871
You can also find this option [br]in the "File" menu.

0:01:48.871,0:01:53.570
Once your score is public, any changes you[br]save will be visible to the world.

0:01:53.570,0:01:57.000
Saving scores to the cloud is a crucial [br]first step, that will pave the way

0:01:57.000,0:02:01.740
for other score sharing and collaboration features [br]that we’d like to develop for future releases.

0:02:01.740,0:02:04.159
