What app is used to achieve this synchronisation?
I have never seen this happen in practice.

Re: On the use of tablets and BT page turners

Can players using parts on iPads etc mark fingerings, bowings, breathings and all the rest in these? Or do they still have to rely on paper parts for that sort of thing? If iPad parts can be annotated in this way, when the string section principals mark the bowings before first rehearsal, how does ...

Re: On the use of tablets and BT page turners

Thanks! I've found the post on the Dorico public forum and created the folder, since it was not there. I will try a new document tomorrow to see how this work. What should I expect? Should every new document automatically gain access to every .doricolib file stored in there? Or should this be import...

Re: Single note tremolo stem length

I got very picky with these because PDFs exported from Dorico on macOS sometimes show the single elements of the note (flag, stem, notehead) to be very slightly (but enough to be visible and irritating to the eye) offset. I have reported this on the Adobe InDesign forum when I first noticed this, bu...

Re: On the use of tablets and BT page turners

Hi Fred, thank you! Two questions: where should one save these on macOS? I went to the place I would have expected (~/Library/Application Support/Steinberg/Dorico 5/) there is not the folder I recall you mentioned in another post either here or on the Dorico forum (I now don't recall the name of the...

Re: Single note tremolo stem length

I've not been using Finale professionally for the last... 15 years lol ... so I can't help, but I'm sure someone else here will! Attached is your screenshot with my markup. The stem is offset, by about 1 pixel according to your screen resolution, but if you export PDF and zoom as much as you can you...

Re: divisi to non-divisi notation in strings

Yes, "tutti, unis." (with the comma imho) is the best for the unison bar. For the divisi bar you have several options: 1. use bar rest in up-stem voice to silence first desk/division, and write music in down-stem voice 2. write normally and then it depends from the language you are using: ...

Re: Single note tremolo stem length

It looks ok but I'm wondering: 1. if this is Finale, why do Tremolo slashes are so slanted? I've never seen them being so angled. I always strive to have one end sit or straddle and the other end straddle or sit —and I'm struggling with Dorico because none of them seems to be properly placed (and al...

Re: On the use of tablets and BT page turners

BTW, Dorico users can add additional custom page sizes with a doricolib file. It's really pretty easy to do. I added a couple of iPad sizes so I can easily format for those sizes in layout if I want. <PageDimensionsPresetEntityDefinition> <name>iPad (8th gen)</name> <entityID>pagedimension.ipad8thg...

Re: tremolo notes and ties

I use dashed ties most of the times, especially in contemporary music.
