Hello,
I’m trying the Dorico I bought yesterday and as there are no demo file in dorico own file, I open some I have to compare .
As I bought the crossfade from sibelius: here is the difference from opening a midifile : The chicken (j.pastorius)

Why these differences?
and when I play I don’t have the real sound: no programm change?
Best regards

You might find you get better results by exporting your Sibelius score as MusicXML and importing that.

It could be that down the fact that, unfortunately, unpitched percussion notation is in a very rudimentary state at the moment. Single-line percussion works OK, but multi-line percussion is basically not yet properly implemented. Improving this part of the program is a high priority for us.
