Dear Dorico Friends, how do I achieve a beginning of Rachmaninoff Romance in Dorico? I couldn’t find a setting in Engraving Options to align a tuplet eith note with quarter note… Here is example I did in the past with Sibelius. Next example - what I get in Dorico. How can a fake it?
Thank you in advance
You’ll need to use tuplets in the down-stem voice in order to get the “quarter notes” (whatever duration they really are when the music is heard!) to line up with the tuplets. Put a 3:2e tuplet on the second quarter beat of the bar, and a 6:4e tuplet on the third beat. You’ll then be able to put the quarter notes in the right places and hide the tuplet brackets/numbers and rests.
Dear Danijel, thank you so much for your quick response. It does the trick. Your answer inspired me to find another solution: I created a tuplet of half notes and wrote them as quarter notes😊
And if you wanted to make it a 3:4 triplet (illogical, I know), you wouldn’t need the rests.
Of course😊 I posted it BEFORE I deleted them just to show a structure
