For some reason I received an email inviting me to try out Steinberg's Dorico notation package. So, I did.
What a shock. I could not figure out how to use it. It seems to be made of "panels" where one performs certain tasks, but I couldn't make the connections between them. I want to see staffs where I enter notes. Dorico gives you one measure of a staff. For the life of me I couldn't figure out how to add more measures. Nor could I figure out how to delete a note. I kept poking around trying to make sense of what it was displaying until it hung so solidly that I had to power reset my machine. I tried it a few more times, but didn't make any more progress.
I supposed there are people who like this sort of approach. For me, I want to see a score composed of staffs where I can enter notes, expressions, and articulations.
