Loading VST and MIDI instruments manually

Dorico Pro automatically loads enough VST slots for all the samples required for your project. However, you can also load VST and MIDI instruments manually, either into new slots or into existing slots to replace existing VST and MIDI instruments.

Prerequisite

  • You have any VST instruments you want to use saved on your computer.

  • You have connected the MIDI device you want to use.

    Note

    You must have connected the device to your computer before starting Dorico Pro. If not, you must restart Dorico Pro.

Procedure

  1. In either the VST Instruments or MIDI Instruments section of the VST and MIDI Instruments panel, click Add.
  2. In the slot in which you want to load a VST or MIDI instrument, select an instrument from the menu.
