Dorico Instruction

There are many Dorico resources out there, but the best way to really learn the software is through customized instruction.

Whether you’re just getting started with the software and need a general overview, a more experienced user looking to take your skills to the next level, or an advanced user in need of customized advice, look no further.

You’ll schedule an appointment with Leo Nicholson, a Steinberg Certified Trainer.

Leo is an expert Dorico user, pianist, engraver and contributor to Scoring Notes, the authoritative web site about music notation software and related technology. Leo devised the Notation Express and Notation Express XL Dorico layout and key commands, and programmed the Notation Express and Notation Express XL Stream Deck profiles for Dorico.

What to expect

Your session is individually tailored to you and is self-directed, so come prepared with questions and examples of things you’d like to cover. Your screen will be shared, and/or the instructor will share his screen with you, so you can see exactly what you need to do to achieve success in Dorico and how to do it.

Sessions are remotely conducted via Zoom, so you can participate from anywhere. Once you book your session, you’ll receive an email prior to your session with details. A computer with an adequate internet connection is required, along with a microphone. You’ll need to be able to share your computer screen. Video is optional.

In advance of your session

Download Zoom on your computer. It’s free.

Gather your Dorico file(s) together so that they can be easily accessed. Prepare any specific questions you’d like addressed.

Test your audio and video connection in Zoom in advance, so we don’t spend time troubleshooting, and get right down to business!
