One of the most unique and time-saving features of Dorico Pro 3, the ability to automatically create a condensed conductor's score with a single click, is further extended in Dorico Pro 3.5 with support for condensed divisi for string section players.
The figures even adapt automatically to changing the bass note. Using a dedicated popover, quickly add figures to any bass part, and choose how they should appear with a complete set of engraving options. Figured bass is a shorthand notation for describing harmony that was in wide usage in European music in the 17th and 18th centuries, written using a system of numerals for intervals above the written bass note. Dorico 3.5 introduces powerful new tools for handling sample libraries through its expanded VST Expression Maps editor, with conditional switches - for example, to use a particular sound when a note is shorter than a certain duration in real time - and improved handling for techniques that can be combined with other sounds, without needing to define every possible combination in the expression map.ĭorico 3.5 expands its support for early music with comprehensive support for figured bass, complete with its own trademark musical intelligence. Today's professional sample libraries and virtual instruments are increasingly sophisticated and require musicians to manipulate several MIDI controllers, key switches and other parameters simultaneously to get the best out of them. This new input method will be of particular interest to users of other notation software who want to experience all of Dorico's powerful and time-saving features, but strongly prefer pitch before duration input: now it's available in Dorico, too.
Now you can specify the pitch before duration, allowing you to try out melodies and chords without inputting them, only committing them to the score when you then specify the duration to be used. Dorico's step input method has always required you to specify the duration of the note before its pitch, which is convenient when copying out existing music, but not always convenient when composing.
With updates to the whole family of products - Dorico Pro, Dorico Elements, and the free Dorico SE - there are improvements across every area of the application, building on the features introduced in Dorico 3.0.ĭorico has been designed from the ground up to be a comfortable environment for composing and arranging, and the new input method introduced in Dorico 3.5 provides convenient new tools for trying out ideas during the composition process. Steinberg has announced the release of the latest version of its professional scoring software, Dorico 3.5.
