00:00:03.330 --> 00:00:06.790
In MuseScore 4, you can save your 
scores privately to the cloud,

00:00:06.790 --> 00:00:08.617
and publish them when they're complete.

00:00:08.617 --> 00:00:12.422
All you need is a free musescore.com 
account to get started.

00:00:12.422 --> 00:00:15.470
If you don’t already have an account, 
it’s easy to get one by clicking

00:00:15.470 --> 00:00:17.948
“Create new account” 
from the accounts page.

00:00:17.948 --> 00:00:21.261
This gives you access to over a million 
scores that you can view online,

00:00:21.261 --> 00:00:24.310
or download and open in 
MuseScore for further editing.

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

00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:31.330
and you’ll be offered the choice of storing it 
either in the cloud or on your computer.

00:00:31.330 --> 00:00:36.294
We’ll select cloud storage for now, give
our score a name, and hit "Save".

00:00:36.294 --> 00:00:37.717
The first time we do this,

00:00:37.717 --> 00:00:40.899
MuseScore will ask whether we also 
want to upload audio with the score.

00:00:40.899 --> 00:00:42.630
Now this is really up to you.

00:00:42.630 --> 00:00:45.992
Thanks to our brand new 
playback engine, VST support,

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

00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:53.780
your scores can now be heard on musescore.com
with beautiful, realistic playback.

00:00:53.780 --> 00:00:58.369
If you’ve installed MuseSounds or are using
a VST, then this is the audio you’ll get

00:00:58.369 --> 00:01:00.970
when you publish your score 
for the world to see.

00:01:00.970 --> 00:01:03.406
However, if you’re just saving 
privately to the cloud,

00:01:03.406 --> 00:01:06.388
you might choose to keep only 
the basic playback on the website,

00:01:06.388 --> 00:01:09.926
which can speed up the time it takes 
MuseScore to save and upload your file.

00:01:09.926 --> 00:01:14.325
We’ll leave this option set to “never” for now,
but we can always change it at any time,

00:01:14.325 --> 00:01:18.198
by opening Preferences, and going
over here to the “Cloud” section.

00:01:18.198 --> 00:01:22.777
Now that we’ve saved our score, you can
easily view it online by clicking this button,

00:01:22.777 --> 00:01:26.800
where you’ll see that your file is in your
score manager with private visibility,

00:01:26.800 --> 00:01:29.149
meaning no one else can see it.

00:01:29.149 --> 00:01:33.411
Any changes you save will be here for you
– and only you – to see.

00:01:33.411 --> 00:01:36.247
Once you’ve finished working on your score,
you can make it public

00:01:36.247 --> 00:01:41.409
for other users to listen to, comment on,
like, share and download.

00:01:41.409 --> 00:01:46.450
In MuseScore, just click on the "Publish" tab,
and choose “Publish to musescore.com”.

00:01:46.450 --> 00:01:48.871
You can also find this option 
in the "File" menu.

00:01:48.871 --> 00:01:53.570
Once your score is public, any changes you
save will be visible to the world.

00:01:53.570 --> 00:01:57.000
Saving scores to the cloud is a crucial 
first step, that will pave the way

00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:01.740
for other score sharing and collaboration features 
that we’d like to develop for future releases.

00:02:01.740 --> 00:02:04.159
