Thank you for your comment. Let's see how many people find this useful and if there are other options too e.g. some people prefer a graphical interface.
Just amazing stuff John! Always learn something new about Dorico and often go back to your videos when there is something I need to check. What a wonderful resource!
What about creating a shortcut for Notes and Rests / Start voice or End voice on the Properties panel in Write mode? I use these settings CONSTANTLY to control the visibility of rests when creating piano scores. There has never been a shortcut for these, or a way to create the shortcut. This would be a HUGE timesaver. Having to switch between the keyboard panel and the properties panel is a hassle. Any hope of getting shortcuts for these settings?? :)
You can set a shortcut for Edit > Remove Rests already, and that then sets the starts/ends voice properties. Otherwise, yes you could record a macro for that and have ConsoleTools trigger your macro.
The simplest way to make these properties available through ConsoleTools would be to create tools directly from Dorico command strings. Just paste the following four lines into your user tool setup file; when ConsoleTools is initialised the next time, the tools will be part of your collection. addTool("Start voice", [[UI.InvokePropertyChangeValue?Type=kNoteOrRestStartsVoice&Value=null: ]]) addTool("End voice immediately", [[UI.InvokePropertyChangeValue?Type=kNoteOrRestEndsVoice&Value=string: "kEndImmediately"]]) addTool("End voice after barline", [[UI.InvokePropertyChangeValue?Type=kNoteOrRestEndsVoice&Value=string: "kEndAfterBarline"]]) addTool("Disable 'End voice' property", [[UI.InvokePropertyEnableSwitch?Type=kNoteOrRestEndsVoice&Value=false]]) Mind you, there are more sophisticated solutions possible, and with not much effort. Appendix C in the full documentation can give you an idea of how to improve on this.
Hi John, great content! I was wondering If there will be a way to link shortcuts to macros internally in Dorico. Also I’m not sure If could be a new window where you could add all the shortcuts/buttons, so If you have two screens and the second is a Touch screen, that could be use to apply the actions. I think Studio One uses some of that for their Macros so It could be great for having it in Dorico too. Then people could choose to use a second screen or tablet to expand the view. And on the other han for those that uses Dorico for iPad or Surface Laptops could be useful to use it too. This is just a suggestion since I think for people that doesn’t know so much about coding this can be really challenging or frustrating as it is right now.
@@dorico we've been slowly moving over to SoundFlow for our Dorico, Cubase, Wavelab and even PT setup for some stems prep stuff. Not an easy transition since we have 1000s of macros but endless possibilities with incredible support.
@@dorico ok thanks, a sesseion about the use of midi keyboard would be great. Are there the possibilities you have with logic and cubase also available for Dorico
@@JanKleinSwormink it depends which possibilities you mean. You can use a MIDI keyboard for step time or live (e.g. with a metronome) recording as well as using it to trigger shortcuts and if you have other knobs and faders they can record MIDI CC options too
Well, this was a handful and then some... Interesting information, John, but a bit on the heavy side. I use the Stream Deck for short cuts, and it is a wonderful tool. I make my own profile, rather than buying the pre-made one since I don't think it is worth the cost. Keep the videos coming, I couldn't see this one live, but I try my best to do so. This one is best in small bits, haha. Have a great summer!
The German and English sessions are quite out of sync as the English ones started much earlier so the content has always been different. Also for sessions like this one not all the same content/manuals e.g. for ConsoleTools are available in other languages yet.
Too complex just buy his software and implement it in Dorico …learn from Apple please

Having trouble installing console tools on my Mac path is correct but still complaining
If you want to email me the details of the error and your assistedInstall.lua file to discoverdorico@steinberg.de I can have a look.
@@dorico Thanks for your prompt reply I have now got it running with all the keycommand files generated

those with 'adult supervision'? 🤣

@@dorico Oh!! Now why didn't I know that? 🙄 Thank you! I think this is exactly what I'm looking for.
@@AlexanderPlotz Thank you, I'll check this solution out, too. 👍🏻

There are better options than Keyboard Maestro. Trust me. This guy is impossible to deal with and does not care about his customers at all.
Feel free to suggest other options. I've not tried that one myself, just know others that have and there were many more options in this session too.

@@assistantassistant5516 I'd be interested to know more if you can email me on j.barron@steinberg.de
@@dorico ok I'll reach out!
Thank you for this enormously useful walkthrough.
A session about input midi learn for midi keyboards (are there templates for severall brands?
No it doesn't matter which keyboard you use, and no MIDI shortcuts are set by default so you can set your own.

Yes there will be sections that aren't for everybody, but that's ok
Can you please give an English version of the last German Dorico Upload, and do this by default please.

Any chapters?
There will be... but I have to watch the session again to write down the times and
add them!
@@dorico Thank you very much!
