[@KrzysztofAJanczak]

Thank you! Nice overview and personal choice of features.

[@SohnCompositions]

Thanks Krzysztof. Hope you found it helpful on whether it's worth upgrading or not.

[@bonuebonue]

Thank you for the helpful review!

[@SohnCompositions]

You're welcome!

Can You share your app 😂😂😂

Excellent manner and presentation. I would use a louder volume on your playbacks to better hear what you are describing. I would appreciate that. Your studio is very attractive and your presentation skill is highly admirable. I'm not a Dorico convert yet but you inched me closer. I will subscribe to you channel.

Thank you Marshall. I will keep that in mind! Yes, I'd say use what you know but if you're feeling adventurous or not happy with the notation software that you're using, Dorico is a fantastic choice. There are some fundamental paradigm shifts when learning the program, but after you get used to it, it operates more like a word processor than any of the other notation softwares I've used (years of using Finale & Sibelius).

thanks for the overview. I’m presuming the Live Stages function will not work with the new Note Performer 5 stuff (since NP utilizes it’s own separate mixer?)

[@SohnCompositions]

I am not sure how that integrates with Note Performer 5. You're probably right if they utilitize their own mixer.

[@charlottemcmillan9668]

I like the scrub feature but am wondering if Dorico has something like my DAW (Digital Performer) has: I can highlight notes and press a key command and DP will play back those notes in the sequence's tempo. Would be great if Dorico could do the same.

[@SohnCompositions]

You can do that in Dorico by highlighting notes and pressing "p".

@@SohnCompositions Thank you!

[@quetzalmarchiori]

Thank you. Great review. How is the cpu performing comparing to dorico 4?

[@SohnCompositions]

It seems roughly the same. In their version history PDF, they do state that certain functions like "reset playback override" is much more responsive.

[@quetzalmarchiori]

@@SohnCompositions Great news :) Thank you, your presentation was really helpful.

[@pfylim]

I can’t see these new features in the iPad version? Does the iOS version have these new features? I can’t find live stage. I’m getting the feeling none of these new features are in the iOS version. I bought the app, so not using the free version and feeling shortchanged right now.

[@mjducharme]

I think you're missing the word "back" from your video description.. "haven't looked back" would make more sense.

[@SohnCompositions]

Yes, thank you for the correction. Fixed it to read correctly now.
