Performance notes and organ registrations

I looked around the forum but couldn’t find a quick answer on how to do a simple “Performance Notes” page (after the title page, and before the music) that gives the players instructions on some of my custom symbols and playing instructions etc.

Also wondering if there is a quick way to add Organ Registration to the organ part (up on the left), as not to appear in the score.

I’m a new user so hopefully there is a quick and easy way to get that done.

p.s. I’m not seeing where the title page is either, so feel free to instruct on that too if you can.

You can always add a blank page, in Engrave mode, anywhere you want. You can create a template for just that page with a text frame. You could put a token into that frame and use one of the project info fields for that text.
For registrations, I put them where the lyricist typically goes (upper left). I believe the default first page template already has a text frame for just that. I changed the token to the Project More Info and made the frame a bit taller and wider. For each piece I can add the registration in the project info (ctrl-I) and it is automatically filled.
You will have to create your own template for a title page. There are some good discover dorico videos that can help with designing page templates.

Thanks @JAMES_GILBERT, (sorry for the delayed reply), your solution of adding blank pages works great.
