Dorico 2 and VSL Expression Maps Collaboration

[Bod]

Hi,

The main gist of this thread is to call out to Dorico 2/VSL users to share some Expression maps that are useable with VSL for now.

I have just spent a while trying to get imported VST Expression Maps to work with absoluteluy no success; eg VSL High Woodwinds+Brass  Woodwind 2 instruments. (If I am missing something here, please direct me to the correct thread or set me straight!)

So the only way I seem to be able to get an EMap to work with Woodwinds 2 is to build one from scratch. Editing the imported one does not work at all for some reason. I don't have all of my dongles with me right now to check other VSL sets, but will go through them when I am at the studio. 

So, is there a working shared resource of working maps for Dorico out there?

Can we use this thread to share?

I am happy to start putting some together and post.

Best,

Ben

Hi Ben,

Dorico don't have all expression map features implemented yet (more information here (look out for posts from Daniel): https://www.steinberg.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=246&t=135922

This may be the reason why you are not happy with the imported VSL Cubase expression maps.

Best, Ben

Thanks Ben,

The imported Dimension Strings Expression Maps as imported are proving more successful. Some  of the keyswitch/mod based articulations are being effected correctly, some need a rejig!

Best,
