Introduction
Dorico concepts
Dorico is based on a number of key concepts that come from its design philosophy.
User interface
The user interface of Dorico SE is designed to keep all of the important tools at your fingertips. This chapter introduces you to key aspects of the user interface.
Project and file handling
In addition to opening and importing/exporting projects and other file formats, project and file handling also includes auto-save and project backups.
Setup mode
Setup mode allows you to set up the fundamental elements of the project: instruments and the players that hold them, flows, layouts, and videos. You can also determine how they interact with each other; for example, by changing the players assigned to layouts.
Write mode
Write mode allows you to input and edit your music, including changing the rhythmic positions of items, changing the pitch of notes, and deleting notes and items. The available toolboxes and panels allow you to input all the notes and notation items that are most commonly used.
Play mode
Play mode allows you to change how your music sounds in playback, including by adjusting the mix, changing the playback template, and assigning VST instruments.
Print mode
Print mode allows you to print your layouts or to export them as graphics files, such as PDF and SVG.
Layout and formatting
There are various ways you can control the layout and formatting of pages in your project, including changing the size of pages and adjusting note spacing.
Properties
Properties are settings that apply to individual notes and items and allow you to edit them, such as by changing their appearance or position. You can access properties in the Properties panel.
Key Editor
The Key Editor is a MIDI editor that comprises multiple components. It allows you to edit notes and other playback items, including note velocity, MIDI CC, and tempo. You can access the Key Editor in the Key Editor panel in the lower zone.
Mixer
The Mixer allows you to control the volume, panning, and sounds of channels in playback.
Library
In Dorico SE, the library is the total compilation of visual items and options that are available in all projects on your computer. It combines factory default settings, custom items/options you have saved as default, and items/options only available in the current project.
