I’m arranging songs for some beginner brass- and windbands. To help the beginners, they want me to write down the fingering of each note. I know that there is a feature that allows me to type in fingering but if I had to do that manually for each instrument, it’s gonna take forever.
Is there a way to automate this process somehow?
For example, if a Bb trumpet has to play a “D”, there should be a “13” and so on.
currently I’m using Dorico 4, if there’s a possibility to automate the process in Dorico 5 then I’m gonna upgrade like the wind. ;D
No: but you can filter notes by pitch, and then apply the fingering to all notes on that pitch in one go, which will make things slightly faster than forever.
Woohoo, we’re getting closer!
Thanks benwiggy! Do you know where I can find instructions for this…?
Is there a possibility automate those filter-and-apply-functions with macros?
wow thats a great way to filter super quick! And even quicker with the shortcuts… Maybe I can do one for each note I need, I’ve to check it out. Thanks for the inputs!!
I can now filter and mark multiple notes, but Dorico 5 doesn’t allow me to insert playing instructions for all marked notes at the same time. It works with articulation symbols, but not with playing instructions. Is this a bug or a feature? It would be cool if this could be fixed in an update.
You should find that you can add playing techniques to all selected notes, but if you’re trying to add text (e.g. via Shift+X), I’m afraid that is not currently supported.
