Me in a nutshell too.
All the relevant key commands that I need I have memorized. Stream deck and midi keyboard reallllllly speed things up. I have a few files that I’ve saved as “templates”. TBH, I feel very disoriented without my stream deck xl as I use it that much. My midi keyboard also has a ton of extra midi keys that I’ve assigned to a bajillion things and used a physical label maker on. (See here for a somewhat dated pic of my setup. This is also a great thread to see other people’s. Perhaps we need to do a new one of these once D4 drops. MIDI Keyboard recommendations - #22 by Romanos)
The biggest thing for me is a midi keyboard. I truly cannot fathom how/why people try and type everything (laptop on the go is one thing, but if you’re at home or at the office, whyyyyyyyyy). Using a midi keyboard is SO much more efficient. Also, the ability to expand the caret to more than one stave is one of dorico’s most brilliant time savers.
