What I understood is,
if someone is using guix shell then he can use it only once,

it would build musescore every day, which needs time.

No, the result of "guix shell" is cached, so if you use it every day,
nothing should be compiled.

I have never used time-machine
and would have to learn the commands.

It would be something like this:
    guix time-machine --commit=2a11acef8c2f8eb70e6f18abaddf8e22459e6006 -- 
shell musescore
where for the commit, you need to use one that has the musescore version
you are interested in. Now the first time this could take a very long
time, in case all the substitutes leading to musescore have been
forgotten by the build farms.

thanks very much Andreas

how can I find the commit for musescore-3.6.2 ?
I was checking "guix time-machine" in the manual but didn´t understand the procedure.
