NOTATIO

Could you share this as a doricolib file? Or how do you save this code as a doricolib file outside of Dorico? I'm on macOS. We can't share files on here, can we? Hmm, I keep getting a 403 error if I post the whole code, so here's a Dropbox link. Let me know if it doesn't work. In addition to some i...

I'm good friends with Harry Connick Jr.'s copyist, and they've been using digital music for over 20 years now. Here's a NY Times article about his system from 2002. I subbed in his band shortly after that, and it was pretty interesting! Everything was controlled by foot pedals and everything was com...

"col" (with) or just "c" has been manuscript shorthand for centuries. I'm assuming here it just means the Viola continues the same line as the Basso Continuo group (Fondamento) but at the octave above as notated.

This... I need to learn how to do this. Importing Page Templates is seldom working well in Dorico, and it is messing up with Sets (Defaults and not)... I'm out the door to go teach, but there was a thread on this here: https://forums.steinberg.net/t/set-default-page-template/826234 If you give it a...

To be sure I understand: is the doricolib something like Sibelius House Style, that you drop into Library Manager and import what you need? Or how do you create/apply them? If you look in the folder where Dorico is installed, most of the xml data files there can be modified with a doricolib file pl...

Given the number of feature requests going up every day, they could have 500 developers and still be short-handed! You've done well to get something that you requested implemented. Haha, probably true! I think with Dorico 4 it reached a maturity level as a program where it can handle 99% percent of...

it's important that you POST on the Dorico forum, very detailed (if possible with examples and images) descriptions of these requests. I kinda have. I mean, for one post 14 months ago I listed 20 requests with what I thought were very detailed descriptions, and almost the entire list pretty much st...

First announce that the player has to take another instrument (with take-to-prends-prende, don't know in German), then again at the entry, BOLD and BIG (I even use boxed text!), the new instrument name, It's a minor issue with an easy workaround using Shift-X text, but unfortunately Dorico currentl...

Yep, I wish the Dorico devs had gone with this ^^^ In the early aughts I was often playing the reading sessions for the BMI Composers Workshop at Local 802 in NYC. The "house band" was/is (it still exists) a band of professional jazz and Broadway musicians and we were all very strong reade...

I've always (since my teens in the 1950s) labelled instrument changes twice. I am pretty sure that Arnstein did the same, David. This is definitely the standard for parts. I'm sort of ambivalent about whether the "to" indication needs to be in the score or not and have seen that handled b...
