Introducing Dorico Pro 6 - Crossgrade (from Sibelius Ultimate & Capella) Dorico Pro 6 is the most powerful and sophisticated version of Steinberg’s renowned music notation software, designed specifically for professional composers, arrangers, engravers and publishers. Whether you're scoring a film, preparing orchestra parts, or publishing educational materials, Dorico Pro 6 delivers perfect scores – faster than ever. With intelligent automation, advanced engraving tools, and seamless workflow enhancements, Dorico Pro 6 helps you spend less time correcting and more time creating. Combining the musical intelligence of a seasoned copyist with the flexibility of modern desktop publishing, this latest release introduces game-changing features like a dedicated Proofreading panel, custom chord symbol design, and effortless cutaway score creation. Its cross-platform support on macOS and Windows ensures that your tools travel with you, and with no physical media to manage, getting started is as simple as a download. Proofreading made easy At the heart of Dorico Pro 6 is the new Proofreading panel, your built-in second pair of eyes. As you work, Dorico proactively scans your score, flagging potential notational ambiguities or inconsistencies before they can slow down rehearsal or recording sessions. This subtle but significant addition helps you spot errors early, giving you greater confidence in your printed materials and saving precious rehearsal time. One-click cutaway scores Producing complex cutaway scores – often used in contemporary and film music – used to require painstaking manual effort. Dorico Pro 6 changes all that with one-click cutaways that meet the highest publishing standards. Whether you’re following in the footsteps of Ligeti or preparing a highly stylised conductor’s score, this tool allows you to focus on creativity, not layout gymnastics. Total control over chord symbols Dorico has always handled chord symbols with intelligence, but version 6 gives you unprecedented control. Display multiple rows of chord symbols with optional extender lines, define your own custom chord appearances, and override any detail of how symbols are presented. From jazz lead sheets to advanced harmonic analysis, your notation now speaks your visual language. Condensing made smarter Dorico Pro 6 further refines its condensing engine, allowing all instruments held by a player – not just the primary – to be condensed onto a single staff. This is a huge time-saver for conductors' scores and complex orchestrations where players double. Whether you're handling winds, percussion, or strings, the result is a clean, legible score without duplication or clutter. Engraving that adapts to your needs With Engrave mode, Dorico Pro puts desktop publishing tools at your fingertips. Version 6 introduces even more layout flexibility, including control over flow heading overrides, staff label placement, and support for curved custom lines like arrows and braces. The new OpenType features allow detailed typographic control, so your scores not only sound great – they look the part too. Enhanced playback and audio control Dorico Pro 6 includes both the HALion Symphonic Orchestra sound library and support for VST plug-ins, offering rich, expressive playback. The new Cycle Playback feature lets you loop a section of music to hear real-time edits as you work, ideal for composers fine-tuning phrasing or mixing. And with native support for marching percussion basics, created in partnership with Tapspace, it's easier than ever to score for modern ensembles. Smarter, faster workflows Efficiency is at the core of this upgrade. From double-click editing of staff and project info to keyboard filtering in the Properties panel, every action in Dorico Pro 6 is faster and more intuitive. The Library Manager makes it a breeze to apply settings across layouts and flows, and user preferences can now be imported and exported with ease – perfect for multi-device workflows. Designed to grow with you Dorico Pro 6 isn’t just about what it can do today – it’s built for the future of your music-making. With full support for iPad, macOS, and Windows, and compatibility with the rest of the Dorico family (Elements and SE), your projects are portable, shareable, and scalable. Language support across English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and more makes it a truly global tool. Which is the right Dorico product for me? Dorico Elements vs Dorico Pro: Dorico Pro is the premium product, with professional level tools, sounds and customisation. Dorico Elements comes with lower levels of functionality. For example, it comes with fewer sounds included and a smaller variety of engraving options. However, Elements is still a great piece of software for students and home users, a solid option for those on a lower budget.
