    Hellooooo team,


    just catching up on this - it looks great and seems to support a comprehensive list of libraries. Is there a list of supported libraries? Particularly the vi percussion? It’s one of the few libraries with roto-toms and id love to have a Dorico solution for it.

    It only works with the Synchron Player and not the discontinued Vienna Instruments player. It is compatible with Studio Percussion (previously called Synchron-ized Percussion) which is the VI percussion ported to Synchron Player. It is not compatible with VI percussion because that is in the Vienna Instruments player.

    got it. But interstingly my Studio (synchronised) appassionata and dimension strings arent in the list - which is a bit frustrating

    I suspect this is probably only a more-or-less temporary situation, and hope that at some point they will go back and make Dorico templates for these libraries.

    Interestingly, the SE (Special Edition) reduced versions of both Appasionata and Dimension Strings *are* supported by Dorico, I believe. I think it is just the full ones that are not.

    Anyone else seeing this... The new naming convention to "Studio Special Edition" seems to have confused the Dorico Wizard. This is what appears at the top of my wizard list, but I suspect this is actually my VI instruments, not my synchronized SE.

    Lower down on the list is this, which MIGHT be my formerly "Synchronized Special Edition" but both are now listed as Studio Special Edition, and there's no strings here:

    And lower down still is this - which includes more instruments and could also be the new Synchronized SE, but still no strings! Who knows what's going on here?

    Thanks in advance for any solutions.

    I don't understand - your first screenshot showed Strings at the very top but you say "still no strings"? Is there something for the strings missing you are expecting to see?

    The Dorico Wizard has never supported any of the VI series, so I doubt it is getting mixed up with this.

    What are you expecting to see or not see that you are seeing or not seeing? And what special edition volumes do you own?

    Thanks for jumping on so quickly! Knowing that the wizard doesn't support VI help. I'm wondering why there are 3 sets of Woodwinds and Brass, 1, 1-2, and 1-4. And 2 sets for Percussion, 1 and 1-2. There seems to be a lot of overlap here. Are these just different articulation sets?

    Hello ariacat!

    I have seen in our records that you have registered Studio Special Edition volumes 1 to 4. Everything on your screenshots looks as expected. You have different sets of the sections to choose from according to which instruments you prefer to load. Some selections only load instruments from volume 1, some load instruments from volumes 1 and 2. Some load instruments from volumes 1 to 4. You are free to unselect points that you don't need. It does no harm to keep all selected.

    Best regards,
    Andi

    Thanks for the reply, Andi. On closer look, what seems to be missing are the articulations from Vol. 3. Are those not supported in Dorico?

    The Dorico expression maps for Studio Special Edition Vol. 1 Strings also works with the strings sections from Studio Special Edition volumes 2, 3 and 5. All you have to do is load the preset in Synchron Player.
