Description
Your idea
Have a built in audio player for transcribing music. The audio player will play the reference audio.
Problem to be solved
Makes it easier to transcribe (not compose) music by removing the need to switch between MuseScore and an external music player.
Prior art
No response
Additional context
There might be room for some additional features to be added (eg, aligning specific points of the audio to specific beats to the sheet music, either by BPM, or by manually added key points for music that don't have a consistent tempo), but I'd recommend a very low priority for that.
