§ Honesty

Told straight, never silently dropped

From the MusicXML Dorico exports: every part as a MIDI track named after it, with every note at its exact position and length (chords and second voices included, and a tied note as one held note); the opening tempo and the time signature. A score names instruments, not sounds: each part arrives as a MIDI track named for its instrument, and you choose the sound in Pro Tools. Dynamics, articulations, slurs and lyrics are notation a DAW project has no place for, so the notes arrive at one velocity and the report lists what it left out. A tempo change later in the score isn’t carried yet: the project runs at the opening tempo. A bare .dorico carries its players and flows but not its notes; export MusicXML for those. Nothing is silently dropped: every conversion comes with a report of what changed.

§ Privacy

Your music stays yours

Local conversions stay right in your browser: your session never leaves your computer, nothing uploaded, nothing stored. Uploaded sessions move over an encrypted connection into your own private space, with access only you control, and yours to delete anytime.

§ Questions

Dorico to Pro Tools: common questions

Can Pro Tools open a Dorico .musicxml file?

Not as a native Pro Tools project. Doseedo converts it: upload your .musicxml (the MusicXML Dorico exports from File › Export › MusicXML, which carries every note; a bare .dorico carries its players and flows but not its notes) and it rebuilds the score as a native Pro Tools .ptx project you can open and keep working in. The download is the whole Pro Tools session folder, zipped.

Which file do I export from Dorico?

MusicXML: in Dorico choose File › Export › MusicXML and upload the .musicxml or .mxl it writes. That carries every part with its notes and rhythm. A .dorico itself converts too, but only its structure: each player becomes a named track and each flow a marker. Its notes aren’t readable outside Dorico, so the report says so rather than inventing them.

How do I export or transfer a Dorico score to Pro Tools?

People describe the same job five ways (export Dorico to Pro Tools, import a .musicxml into Pro Tools, transfer the score, open a Dorico score in Pro Tools), and none of it needs stems. Upload the .musicxml and it converts to a native Pro Tools .ptx session with every part as a MIDI track, every note and the score’s tempo and time signature intact.

What carries over from Dorico to Pro Tools?

From the MusicXML Dorico exports: every part as a MIDI track named after it, with every note at its exact position and length (chords and second voices included, and a tied note as one held note); the opening tempo and the time signature. A score names instruments, not sounds: each part arrives as a MIDI track named for its instrument, and you choose the sound in Pro Tools. Dynamics, articulations, slurs and lyrics are notation a DAW project has no place for, so the notes arrive at one velocity and the report lists what it left out. A tempo change later in the score isn’t carried yet: the project runs at the opening tempo. A bare .dorico carries its players and flows but not its notes; export MusicXML for those.

Do my plugins transfer from Dorico to Pro Tools?

A score names instruments, not sounds: each part arrives as a MIDI track named for its instrument, and you choose the sound in Pro Tools. Nothing is faked: whatever doesn’t cross the Dorico–Pro Tools boundary is named in the conversion report.

Is my project private?

Your project is uploaded over an encrypted connection into your own private space, converted, and is yours to delete anytime.
