For instance, one might look at separating out the various voices of a fugue onto different staves, so that each stave can be assigned a different midi channel and to a different manual, when playing in the four keyboard mode.
I have Musescore running on my DAW although I haven't played with it enough to make it jump through my required hoops with any great facility.Īs I can't compose for, but rather re-create music in Organteq I am mainly interested in manipulating midi files to give me greater control over the final performance. I suppose the simplest answer is that I have no idea which is the better notation editor, as I can't run Dorico on my Linux system, therefore I cannot make a comparison between the two applications. Is Dorico much better than MuseScore, a full-featured, very capable music notation editor which runs great in Linux? However, it does give me something more to experiment with in the early hours, when I should be sleeping. I'm sure that it is not going to prove to be quite as straight forward as the above sequence of steps would suggest, nor as elegant a solution as JesterMusician proposed. The stop changes could be written onto the score as text to help explain what was happening and the midi command listed as a text item, Cn, to indicate the change of combination. Now, if I remember correctly, you can edit a midi file, through Reaper, for instance, to include midi control events on the score, which would mean that, when re-playing the midi file, the score would pass the midi event through to Organteq and thus change the combination button and hence the stops pulled. Each combination button could then be assigned to a different midi event, thus allowing you to quickly change your stop settings, whilst re-playing a midi file, by pressing a single key. There is, however, an interesting thread on the Dorico Forum about if/when the application will be ported to Linux, whether they should bother doing so, and can you run it under WineĪt the end of the discussion, the user snakeeyes021 does demonstrate a method of running Dorico through Wine, but it seems to be a rather more complicated solution to the question than I required.Īs a back of an envelope calculation, one could configure each of the stop change settings to a different combination button. As it raised a whole load of interesting possibilities and ideas, I went off to read about Dorico, only to discover that it did not run natively on Linux a disappointment I am resigned to. Thank-you for nudging this interesting thread forward, as I hadn't read as far back as this in the Forum, as yet.
