If you're looking for supportive, expert guidance for your Dorico/Cubase worklow, I offer one-on-one Zoom consultations through Fiverr. Solve any problem you're having :). https://www.fiverr.com/s/0barWbA Expression Maps in Cubase 14’s Score Editor give composers control over articulations, allowing for realistic playback using sample libraries. In this video, I’ll compose a brief passage and demonstrate how to set up articulations in the score editor so they automatically trigger the correct samples using an Expression Map in Cubase 14. Understanding this feature helps bridge the gap between composing in Dorico and composing in Cubase 14. Once we’ve got our articulations working, I’ll also demonstrate how to export a Dorico project from Cubase AND export the expression map from Cubase. That will illustrate the workflow for composers who want to go from Cubase into Dorico to prepare parts or conductor's scores in Dorico. By the end of this video, you’ll understand how to set up, assign, and optimize Expression Maps in Cubase 14’s Score Editor, ensuring your compositions sound as expressive as they need to. I hope this video demystifies the current state of play between Dorico and Cubase. Of course, features are always being developed, but for now these tools offer value to composers who want to work with the features of both programs. Let's dive in!
