Cubase 14 - Import MusicXML

Cubase
1

I am a Dorico 5.1 Pro user currently working on a song that I was about to transfer to my Cubase 13 Pro. Since I heard of the new Dorico-based score editor in Cubase 14 and the improved Cubase 14 integration with Dorico I didn’t hesitate and upgraded to Cubase 14 Pro.

After installing Cubase 14 I went straight to the File->Import menu but I could not locate the MusicXML option - there isn’t one. I thought it could be somewhere else or that maybe now Cubase 14 opens Dorico Projects directly. But I couldn’t find any option that would allow me to open it or transfer my Dorico music to Cubase 14 except by using the simple MIDI option - with very bad results to be honest.

Sure enough I reopen my old Cubase 13 Pro and there was the option to File → Import → MusicXML - and altough not greatly integrated with the old score Cubase 13 editor, at least it is there and it works.

Can anyone help me find in Cubase 14 Pro either an option to open MusicXML exported from Dorico or, even better, a way to open Dorico projects. I truly hope I am missing something…

Thank you so much for any help or hint.

Hello @Intini

This couldn’t get included in this first release of the new Cubase Score Editor - but it’s coming in a later update. See here for info…

Thank you so much for your quick reply. That is understandable. After reading the posts on the link you provided I am confident they will keep improving the interoperability between Dorico and Cubase. They probably had to release it sooner than they would have liked due to deadlines. I am looking forward to the developments regarding this integration.
In the meantime, the upgrade is surely rich and worthwhile!
