glissando question (text vs no-text)
A comment made on the Dorico forum got me thinking about this and wondering if standards might have changed in recent years. With certain instruments, a line from one note to another is "obviously" a glisssando. For example, in a trombone part I don't think anyone would question what that ...

Re: Dorico 5.1.10 released!
the Harp pedal widget is brilliant.
it helps a great deal with editing harp pedals when your memory isn't what it once was.

Re: has anyone ever heard of "Daniels Instrumentation Standard"?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I have NO idea and think it's stupid that they don't even give a resource on where to learn how to write using this "standard". Like I said, the only example I could find online (that did not involve paying a monthly fee to access scores) included ONLY the woodwinds, with no indi...

Re: has anyone ever heard of "Daniels Instrumentation Standard"?
personally, I find it stupidly fussy to include a number for every woodwind within the square brackets. it seems ONLY the instruments involved in any sort of doubling really need to be mentioned. and according to their guidelines, if an instrument is playing the doubling instrument throughout, then ...

Re: has anyone ever heard of "Daniels Instrumentation Standard"?
ok, well, there have been changes I think, because that is no longer considered the "Daniels Instrumentation Standard". It has gotten rather convoluted and overly complicated. your example (assuming "doubling" means playing both main instrument and auxiliary) would come out somet...

has anyone ever heard of "Daniels Instrumentation Standard"?
I'm submitting a work to an orchestra, and this is the first time I get such a nit-picky answer... the instrumentation MUST be written in the "Daniels Instrumentation Standard". I'd never heard of it before, and could find only VERY minimal information on how to write it out. On the Daniel...

Re: MuseScore 4.2 Released
I'm most definitely not a user of cutaway scores (having heard too many conductors complain about them and express just how much they hate reading from them), but I know they are a VERY much requested addition to Dorico.
I'm also curious whether MS can do them.
I know Finale does. Can Sibelius?

Re: MuseScore 4.2 Released
hmm, the little harp pedal widget is cute. I sort of wish Dorico had something like that. How does MS handle things like complex divisi of parts? (for example, strings that have multiple divisi in different configurations) How does MS handle these divisi between score and parts? what if a divisi sta...

Re: Finale 27.4 released
I'd suggest getting the free version of Dorico, or the less-expensive limited version (Dorico SE). Go through tutorials slowly, and you'll get a grasp of how things work in Dorico. One thing I really love about Dorico is that you don't have to have a time signature. The cadenzas in my violin concert...
