Maybe literally it can, but practically speaking, no, it can not. It can also export MusicXML files, allowing you to take projects started in Dorico into other applications.” Dorico can import MusicXML and MIDI files from Cubase, other scoring programs and other DAWs. You say “Projects often start or finish outside your scoring software. As a registered owner of Dorico, I am deeply disappointed about this. Your own Steinberg Dorico website has misleading statements about Dorico’s ability to work with MusicXML. John, this is unreasonable, and Dorico has been deceptive about this. Now that it’s been around a little while, people have projects that they need to export, so we’ll be working on that. We do have plans, although I don’t know when.įor a new program like Dorico, our first intention was to be able to import MusicXML really well, since when you get Dorico you’ll want to import some files and see how they look.
So I conclude that the problem is with Dorico.Ĭan anybody from the Dorico team comment on this, please? Do you have plans to address this problem? No tempo markings, staccato markings on noteheads, no dynamics, no pizz. The resulting MuseScore score looks almost identical to the Sibelius score. To test things, I have imported my MusicXML file into Sibelius 8.5.1 and also into MuseScore 2.1. When I export the MusicXML from Dorico, and then import the resulting MusicXML file into Sibelius 8.5.1, most all instances of each of the score markings indicated in the list above are missing.
Tempo markings, ritard, a tempo, accel.I have a score of a string sextet that has a lot of frequently changing: The information I can find from Steinberg on exporting MusicXML from Dorico says something about “not all score markings are exported at this time.” I take this to mean that the Dorico team has not fully implemented all the music notation features of MusicXML export that they wish to implement.

Again, the use of these terms will vary from one composer to the next unless beginning and ending tempo markings are included, the performer must simply use good musical judgement to decide how much to slow down in a particular ritardando or rallentando. You may notice that there are quite a few terms for slowing down. These terms can also appear with modifiers like molto or un poco. These terms often appear below the staff, although writing them above the staff is also allowed. Gradual changes in the basic tempo are also common in music, though, and these have their own set of terms. If the tempo of a piece of music suddenly changes into a completely different tempo, there will be a new tempo given, usually marked in the same way (metronome tempo, Italian term, etc.) as the original tempo.
Tempo indications such as “Not too fast”, “With energy”, “Calmly”, or “March tempo” give a good idea of how fast the music should feel. Much folk, popular, and modern music, gives instructions in English or in the composer’s language. Of course, tempo instructions don’t have to be given in Italian.
