More or less trouble: My first project in Dorico… unfortunately a big one. For full symphonic orchestra, choir and about 15 solo voices, 38 parts. All xml Import from Finale-
Because Dorico is very slow when I edit the whole piece I decided to split in 38 separate parts. I have 2 percussion players with multi instruments. Ok, as I already know, Dorico has trouble with merging multi instruments, BUT: Dorico seems to have problems with merging singers, too.
The 15 solo voices have all the same name and the same instrument name in all the 38 pieces. I did all of these from a template song. But if I import flows and asked if I want to merge the instruments if possible (yes), the new singers in the new flow are absolutely random, E.G. I have a singer „Robert“, in Flow 1, but if I import flow 2, „Robert“ gets to the staff of „Paul“.
Work around: Input of staff name as text in bar 1. Then I know where the new staff belongs.
Any better suggestions?
Thanks, Jürgen
