Steinberg enters the third round with Dorico Pro 3.5 EDU, offering various new and practical features within the notation software environment, in addition to numerous improvements. These now include functions such as Create Score Extract, Tablature, Guitar Notation, Playback Templates, Intelligent Pedal Notation for Harp and more. Also new is the included Olympus Choir Micro
In general, Dorico Pro 3.5 EDU can still be used just as efficiently for composing, learning and publishing as before. The intuitive workflow ensures fast results even for beginners, while hundreds of advanced notations, functions, options and sounds are waiting for them.
Dorico 3 raises the bar for music notation software: only with this software can you create score extracts for the conductor with a single click. In addition, there are powerful features for
In the conductor's score, music for multiple musicians is condensed to a smaller number of staves, reducing the number of staves on each page. The staves can be displayed larger and readability is improved. Creating a conducting score used to be very tedious and time consuming. The process required a lot of planning, many revisions, and was virtually unsupported by notation software - until today. With Dorico 3, you can now create an intelligently formatted score excerpt for the conductor with just one click, without losing the full instrumental parts. Profound changes in music notation software productivity happen maybe once a decade: This is one of them.
Dorico 3 makes it easy to work with third-party sound libraries and virtual instruments by providing custom playback templates. After setting up the output for a specific virtual instrument in a project, you can now save this configuration as a template to use in future projects. Create a custom template that includes your favorite virtual piano, uses strings from your favorite orchestra library, and draws on the included HALion Symphonic Orchestra sounds for everything else. Share your saved configurations with colleagues and other users, simply by dragging and dropping. What's more, with advanced features for the VST Expression Maps, it's easier to take advantage of all the advanced techniques of your favorite sample libraries.
This new writing tool allows you to try out chord structures and melodies on the MIDI keyboard without entering them into the music sheet. Dorico will not accept your input until you have entered the note value.
Indispensable in baroque music and a rarely cultivated art: with this assistant you can easily create the appropriate chord abbreviations for the harpsichordist from your continuo. Dorico Pro 3.5 EDU is of course capable of more than just the 2 inversions.
Like in a professional sampler, Dorico 3.5 allows you to define individual levels for velocity, note value etc. and assign them to different samples. Very handy for a well articulated, easy to follow performance.
You already know this from Dorico 3, but in Steinberg Dorico Pro 3.5 EDU it is upgraded and now includes all common articulations. A chord wheel makes it easier to embed the tabs into the overall composition. You also get detailed access to the look of the finished tablature.
As is common with movie compositions, you can leave blank lines at the end of the sheet music for notes. This feature also allows you to insert blank lines at any position, eg. for worksheets.
If you collaborate with users of other notation programs, you can export your work to MusicXML. MusicXML is a cross-platform format that can be read by most notation programs.
