Description
Your idea
- As a Castilian Dulzaina player I would like to include the "Castilian Dulzaina" in the list of the instruments that can be selected when creating a new Score:
- As a MuseScore use I would like to be able to have the right Stave properties when creating a Score:
- As a Castilian Dulzaina player and a MuseScore user I would like to enjoy a specific Soundfont for this instrument:
Problem to be solved
- "Castilian Dulzaina" is not in the list of available instruments when creating a new score
- An specific transposition is required for this instrument that should be setup when creating a new score
- There isn't a soundfont for this instrument

Additional context
Castilian Dulzaina is quite popular in Castille (Spain). Some examples:
- Playing popular songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32zqOjlB7L0
- Playing Bach melodies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AwyOTEtSNE
As a proof of concept I have created a MuseScore version with this intrument:
- A new soundfound have been created recording some samples and building a new sf2 file
- This sf2 file has been added to "Ms Basic.sf3" in a free bank (11)
- An new familiy of instrument has been added to instruments.xml: Dulzaina (There are "Castilian Dulzaina", "Aragonese Dulzaina", "Valencian Dulzaina" ...)
- Instrument definition (longName, shortName, aPitchRange...) has been added to instruments.xml
- QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP (Family) and QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP3 (instrument names) has been added to instrumentsxml.h
- A new family (Dulzaina) and subcategory (Castilian) has been added to soundid.h as well as the corresponding strings
- Mapping has been added to windssetupdataresolver.cpp and soundmapping.h
I have generated a mp3 file with this new soundfont and MuseScore: Bailes de procesion cancionero castellano v2.zip
I would really appreciate any help or comment
Kind regards
