LYRICS EDITOR PRO 2000 UPDATE

Secondly, Dorico can now seamlessly merge freehand regions, so that you don’t end up with unexpected gaps between regions that can produce glitches by way of momentary unwanted value changes. Firstly, the resolution for freehand drawing is much, much higher, allowing much more precise control over the specific contours produced. Speaking of the MIDI continuous controller editor, we’ve put a lot of work into improving the feel of this editor. In common with the MIDI continuous controller editor, you can also now use Shift to constrain the dragging of points, so it’s easy to drag up and down with Shift to change values without changing positions, or to drag left and right with Shift to change positions without changing values. The points within green regions that indicate the shape of envelope-based dynamics like sforzando can now be edited more reliably, and their movement is constrained to prevent you from creating peculiar dynamics that Dorico can’t make sense of.įreehand dynamics that you create with the draw (pencil) and line tools are shown as blue regions, and you can overwrite green regions with blue regions to provide specific nuance or detailed performance.

The point at the start of a green region is larger, to indicate that dragging this left or right will move the whole green region, including any other points and green regions that are part of the same group.

We have worked hard to make all of the editors more robust, and this is particularly evident in the reintroduced dynamics editor.ĭynamics that appear in the music in Write mode appear as green regions in the dynamics editor, while grouped dynamics are indicated with a solid blue line at the top of the editor, indicating the extent of the group. Some edits in Dorico 3.5 and earlier could be a bit unpredictable and produce peculiar results. Our goal with the Key Editor in Dorico 4 is not only to match the functionality provided by Dorico 3.5 and earlier versions, but to add greater capabilities while making the editors feel as good as possible, ideally as good as they feel in your sequencer of choice (which I very much hope is Cubase). If you’ve not taken a look at the power of the reimagined Key Editor that’s new in Dorico 4, here’s an overview: Anthony has put together a video summarising the changes and improvements introduced not only in Dorico 4.1 but in the previous updates, too. When taken together with the improvements in the previous three Dorico 4 updates, the new Key Editor is really coming on in leaps and bounds. Dorico 4.1 also brings powerful new editing tools in the MIDI continuous controller editor, and makes it easy to edit the velocities of individual notes within chords in the velocity editor. The headline improvement to the Key Editor in Dorico 4.1 is the reintroduction of the dynamics editor, but it is by no means the only significant change in this update.

You can also read more than 15 pages of documentation for these improvements, including details of more than 80 fixes for issues encountered by customers, in the Dorico 4.1 Version History PDF. We have also made available Dorico for iPad 2.3 in the App Store, which is up-to-date with Dorico 4.1 and introduces a new Lifetime Unlock in-app purchase option to gain access to all of its premium features for a one-off fee instead of an ongoing monthly or annual subscription.įor an overview of the new features and improvements in Dorico 4.1, check out this video from my indefatigable colleague Anthony Hughes, who has rounded them all up for you:
