Cubase 13 & Dorico 5

ErikOtte

When will we need the most recent versions of these two packages? I guess Cubase 13 files can't be read in Cubase 12, same for Dorico.
Cubase 13 has significant advantages in midi editing so that is a reason to use it as soon as possible.

Robrecht, eager to find out your opinion.....

You can read Dorico 5 files in Dorico 4. Although you will get a warning when loading the project. Anything unique to version 5 is ignored. I found this out unexpectedly when I took my laptop, with version 4 installed, with me on a trip but took files to work on that were started on my desktop which has version 5 installed.

I installed Dorico 5 after waiting for a couple of months until it stabilised in version 5.0.20. I now abandoned version 4.
No experience with Cubase 13 yet. I currently have no time to experiment with it. I suggest installing 13 while making sure you can either keep version 12 working, or being able to go back.
Success! Robrecht
