![]() ![]() ![]() Thank you Sascha - very helpful to have the graphic. It’s just how it is represented in a particular layout, which can be totally independent from other layouts. Again, this changes nothing of the meaning/semantics of the music, and you wouldn’t enter it any differently in write mode for this particular outcome. This is all Layout.įinally, you could chose to condense the divis in the score, not having several staves, but only one again, actually. At which point system breaks happen and therefore two or more staves appear is just a necessary representation and can even be different between layouts (Score vs.When a divisi should start and end – that’s music semantics, best seen in galley view.Try to experiment with what I just wrote yourself, and see how things are different in galley view and page view (for example: instrument changes, divisi, spacing). I think this is best achieved in galley view, as I said. You only care about inputting the rawest form of information, and you don’t deal with the layout at all. In write mote, you concern yourself with the music and the music semantics (when does what appear, when do players do which action, when should a divis start etc.) Try out all the things you are unsure about on a dummy project, don’t take “important” projects.Īgain in Dorico there are 2 processes: the music semantics and the final presentation. Focus on one thing, for example what layouts, players and flows are and how they relate to each other. Then why not try it out on a new/empty project. I did read the sections you mentioned when I got Dorico 18 months ago – didn’t fully understand it then. You’re right Sascha that I don’t specifically understand Dorico, hence the questions. I don’t think it is other than an explanation and method for a specific feature, or give me the preferred method. What I have to do now is synthesize a strategy and route forward based on the comments above for copying and pasting Divisi sections or flows from string to wind instruments, unless someone can point to where this is given in Dorico. I did read the info on players, layouts, flows ad projects 18 months ago - perhaps its changed and been enhanced - but you’re right I should do it again having used Dorico and got the information above I think your explanation Lillie is excellent and explains things very clearly in a way I can understand. I’m understanding the possibilities through using it and asking questions. ![]() I did read about the trinity and separation but didn’t fully understand it never having used music notation software before. After a career in and around software-based industries, I know that languages, architectures, implementations and usage can vary and so I make no assumptions. That’s an excellent tip Sascha on selecting the Divisi Signpost Yes, Janus I have been experimenting, and have learnt from that, but not quite there yet – If I paste special > reduce and then (paste special?) > Explode will it explode back to the same Divisi input i.e., is it a prefect reversal process? Thanks Derrek, Janus, Sascha and Lillie for your generous contributions and help Because they exist in the project rather than in a single score, you can, for example, have players and flows saved in the project without showing them in the full score. In Dorico Pro, players, layouts, and flows are all connected to each other. steinberg.help Players, layouts, and flows Info about players, layouts, and flows is here. It’s there to make your life easier and tidier, really. You’re prompted to delete part layouts when deleting players, because otherwise you could end up with lots and lots of empty part layouts (part layouts with no player assigned, because that player was deleted). all the graphical nudging of items in Engrave mode). Any layout-specific graphical tweaks you’ve made are deleted with the layout though (e.g. For example, deleting a vocal score containing the four SATB players only deletes the vocal score it doesn’t delete their individual parts, nor does it affect the existence of their music. The music remains if you don’t delete the player. When you delete a layout, you’re only deleting that particular “view”/presentation of the music. When you delete a player, you delete its instruments and all the notes, notations etc belonging to those staves. Don’t know what I’m deleting behind what I see and its impact on the music ![]()
