Dorico Pro 4 Crossgrade: Advanced Music Notation Softwareis an advanced music-notation software that helps you write music notation, automatically produce high-quality printed results, and play back your music with natural-sounding realism using either the provided HALion Symphonic Orchestra library or any VST 3-compatible virtual instrument. With a full set of effects and flexible audio routing, you can even mix directly in the software.

Combining a simple, streamlined user interface—that fits comfortably on a single display—with fast keyboard access to every feature, Dorico 4 is easy enough for anyone to learn. Seamlessly insert notes, individual beats or bars, change bar-number sequences, delete or insert barlines, rebar music into new meters, and the software automatically ensures the music is notated clearly and correctly. You can also manipulate MIDI events directly in the built-in piano-roll editor.

When the time comes to take your project to the next stage, export MIDI to Cubase or other DAWs. When printing, you can create multiple output formats with different combinations of instruments and page and stave sizes, all within a single project file, and then export press-ready true monochrome PDFs with a single click.

Dorico 4 uses Steinberg's identity-based license management system. Users must sign in to Dorico using their Steinberg ID. Software licensed using online activation can be activated on three computers for the personal nonsimultaneous use of the person associated with the Steinberg ID. Neither the Soft-eLicenser nor the USB-eLicenser can be used with Dorico 4.

Key Editor in Write mode: With the introduction of a dedicated Key Editor in the lower zone in Write mode, it's now easier than ever to shape the MIDI performance of your music notation.

Smart MIDI import: Powerful new MIDI import workflow intelligently interprets incoming tracks and remembers your choices for future imports.

On-screen keyboard, fretboard, and drum pads: Click or tap notes into the score from the piano, input guitar tab directly by touching the string and fret on the fretboard or see all of the percussion instruments in your kit at a glance with the drum pads.

Polyphonic MIDI transcription: Whether you're using the new smart MIDI import workflow or recording music in real time from your MIDI keyboard, Dorico 4 now automatically separates the music you play into separate voices, producing a much cleaner transcription of your input than ever before.

Insert mode scope: Change the scope of Insert mode operations: Edit only the current voice, edit all voices on the current instrument, or edit all instruments in the flow, making it easier than ever to create cadenzas or free rhythm sections.

Melodic and rhythmic transformations: Common melodic and rhythmic transformations such as rotation, inversion, and reversal are now all just one click away.

Revamped Play mode and Mixer: Choose between showing the essential controls in the lower zone or showing the Mixer as a separate window, for full control over channel EQ, insert effects, and more.

Native Apple Silicon support: Dorico 4 runs natively on Apple's M1-powered Macs. Some editing operations are as much as twice as fast on Apple Silicon than on in Intel-powered Macs.

Library Manager: See the differences between the options and styles in two projects at a glance and selectively apply changes from one to the other.

Jump bar: Quickly access all of Dorico's commands from your computer keyboard. Just type J, then a few letters of the command you want to execute, and hit Return. The jump bar also makes it easy to navigate anywhere in your project, jumping instantly to any page, bar, or rehearsal mark of your choosing.

Instrument filters in galley view: You can now focus in on the instruments you're interested in simply by selecting them and hiding all of the others.

SuperVision: A fully customizable, multimeter audio analyzer plug-in is now included with Dorico 4.

Capos for fretted instruments: Dorico 4 allows you to define a full or partial capo for a fretted instrument and produces transposed notation, chord symbols, and chord diagrams accordingly.

Easily show optional or alternate chord symbols by enclosing them in parentheses.

Automatic score order and soloists: When adding players and instruments to your project, Dorico automatically orders them according to the conventional orchestral score order, so you can rest assured your instruments will be in the order the conductor will expect when perusing your score.

User-defined project templates and ensembles: To quickly add multiple instruments to your project, the revamped Ensemble Picker allows you to use standard orchestral shorthand for woodwind and brass, or you can type standard abbreviations for instruments. Once you've set up your project exactly the way you want it, save it as a project template for future use; it will then appear in the Hub alongside Dorico's built-in project templates.

Bracketing for figured bass: Building on the comprehensive support for figured bass introduced in Dorico 3.5, Dorico 4 adds a sophisticated set of tools for adding square brackets and parentheses to figured bass, allowing you to bracket individual figures or even accidentals independently, or enclose multiple figures at different rhythmic positions within a single set of brackets.

Improved staff labels: Players holding multiple instruments, like percussionists, can now be labeled using their player name rather than the names of individual instruments.

A: The BirdDog NDI Multiview Pro Streaming Software will work with any NDI standard source you provide.

Q: 5. How is the monitor powered and is the power source included?

A: The monitor has an AC to DC converter, much like a laptop. It is included.

Q: 6. Is this software compatible with the Gemini MDJ series?

A: Gemini's MDJ line of products is not specified as directly compatible with the Mixvibes Cross DJ 4 Pro Digital DJ Software. Because Mixvibes is able to be controlled over MIDI and the MDJ players offer MIDI control, there may be some cross-functionality between the two, but it is likely limited. Gemini's "FirstMix" product line is specified as compatible with and natively supported by Mixvibes, however.

Q: 7. Is there an image flip button on the actual monitor? Or is this something I have to do using the software?

A: These answers must be outdated. I just bought this Dec 2020 and there is, in fact, a way to mirror the image onboard the monitor itself (which is very handy).

Q: 8. Does this work ONLY with the MagiCue software?

A: You will be able to use any Teleprompter Software with this system. Just as long as the computer you are using with this prompter works with the software.

Q: 9. If the imported document has an image, will it still be in tact on the teleprompter once imported? If not, is there a way to display an image on the teleprompter as well as scrolling text?

A: Sorry, the software does not support that. On their monitor based prompters, any image or slide can be readable in the glass because of the reversing capability of the monitor.

Q: 10. Dose this software support Arabic language text ?

A: No. This software does not support any of the script fonts. // Also, if there are any other technical or product related questions, feel free to contact us directly at any time at support@dracobroadcast.com.
