I was a Finale user, mostly because I didn't know which software to go with. i contemplated for over a year to make the switch to Dorico, especially since I also use Cubase for recording, producing and film scoring. When Final ended, It was an inconvenience, but at the same time, I felt relieved. now, i had to make the switch. I taught myself Dorico 5, 2 weeks before my Berklee Orchestration II, Film and TV 1 scoring courses. I felt it was necessary and a huge opportunity to switch. I watched YouTube videos to learn, made a list of the shortcuts in a word document (so i could use it while I learned and practiced). A couple of days later, I decided to put myself through my own bootcamp. I transcribed a few pages of Mozarts Symphony #40 and a few other symphonies. It was the best thing i ever did. I had used Finale for 3 years. I know Dorico way better than Finale in only 2 weeks. Super easy to use and very user friendly. it's the best. yes, Dorico has a few issues, but nothing compared to Finale's issues!
