After a day of testing:
-
Setting up a project and inputting notes was fine. For me easier than with finale. Also setting up playback worked well.
-
No crashes so far
-
The playback is still a very simple: Having a choice of good sounds does only make sense for me, when articulations and dynamics are played. For some static dynamix expressions this works, but neither for crescendi nor for any articulation. e.g. if you have p<ff dorico steps to ff at the end of the crescendo.
-
I did not find a way to reset “tweakings” in the piano roll to the original state. This would be important for selections if you make any accidental changes.
-
There is an option “setup plugin playing techniques” which made me hope for being able to adjust articulations. However this does nothing. The same is with the edit button in playback.
