In this video, I break down the UX/UI design of Steinberg’s Dorico - an increasingly popular music notation software that competes with AVID’s Sibelius. To help me look at how the experience has been designed, I test it out on real musicians and documented my own experience trying to compose in it too. Is it seaworthy? Does it float? Well... yes it does... but there be jank in them there waters...

Special thanks to The Bran Flakes for allowing me to use their track ‘Oddio Overplay’ during the ‘Jank it up’ section. Check out their album ‘Bubbles’ here. I’ve loved this for years.

An example of Dorico throwing shade at Sibelius
I love the way Daniel refers to Sibelius as ‘Product A’, then mentions how rest placement improvements are their ‘third highest-voted feature request’, followed by a link directly to the Sibelius feedback community. lol.
