3/28/2023 0 Comments Finale vs dorico![]() ![]() I am sure a power user would access the features more quickly using short cuts, etc., more quickly. Access to some features seemed quite convoluted. That means that any independent high quality playback VST compatible sound systems can be used (free or paid for). I think the playback engine will be one of the most significant upgrades to be compatible with VST plugins. Musescore is currently undergoing a major revamp which will be released later this year. It is easy to reproduce the Dorico style of placing LH finger with the white space surrounding the number. All these, and most other features, can be pre-set in styles and associated with control characters if desired. Font type and size, bold/normal/italics can all be controlled and set for the user. For example, I prefer LH fingering to be on the left of the note and at specified spacing (both adjustable on the fly if there are space constraints), and RH fingering to be above or below the note in italics. It is also easily to customize styles, and to then associate that style with a Ctrl or ⌘ (Mac) keyboard combination. It is extremely easy to apply typical classical guitar. The menu and pallets are extremely easy to access (available in a side bar) and are intuitive to apply. It included a significant change to the default notation font, although any compatible font can be used and set in the styles dialogue. The latest stable version of Musescore, 3.6, is quite an improvement on earlier releases. However, I now use Musescore exclusively. It makes wonderful looking sheet music, but, being text based, it is certainly not for everyone (although, I did built up a decent library of macro functions that made fiddly things like LH and RH fingering, barres, and positions with span lines, a lot easier). I used to use Sibelius up to version 5.2, but decided not to upgrade. ![]()
