Write mode
Write mode allows you to input and edit your music, including changing the rhythmic positions of items, changing the pitch of notes, and deleting notes and items. The available toolboxes and panels allow you to input all the notes and notation items that are most commonly used.
MIDI recording
MIDI recording is a way of inputting notes into Dorico for iPad by playing them in real time on a MIDI device. This can be particularly useful if, for example, you prefer to improvise your music rather than plan pitches and note durations in advance.
Disabling MIDI input devices
By default, Dorico for iPad accepts MIDI input from all connected MIDI devices. You can disable MIDI devices individually, for example, if you are using devices that continuously output MIDI data.
