§ Honesty

Told straight, never silently dropped

Every MIDI track becomes a part with its name, its notes engraved on one timeline at the project’s tempo and time signature: barred, spelled for the key, with chords, rests, ties across bar lines, dots and beams by the beat, and the clef each part’s range needs. A score has no mixer, so plugins, levels, sends and automation have no place in it and aren’t written; the report names what stayed behind. Audio tracks aren’t written, since a score can’t hold audio. Dynamics, articulations, slurs and lyrics aren’t invented: a DAW project has no model for them. A swung part is written as it was played (dotted pairs) rather than marked “Swing”, and a tempo change partway through isn’t written yet: the score takes the opening tempo. 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

REAPER to Dorico: common questions

Can Dorico open a REAPER .rpp file?

Not as a native Dorico project. Doseedo converts it: upload your .rpp on its own (a score needs only the MIDI, so the audio can stay behind) and it engraves every MIDI track as a part in a MusicXML score (.mxl), the file Dorico opens through its MusicXML import.

Why do I get MusicXML and not a .dorico?

A .dorico is Dorico’s own format, which isn’t publicly documented, and a file we can’t be sure opens would only look like a conversion. MusicXML is the notation format Dorico imports in full (MuseScore, Sibelius and Finale read it too), so the download is one .mxl you open through Dorico’s MusicXML import.

How do I export or transfer a REAPER project to Dorico?

People describe the same job five ways (export REAPER to Dorico, import a .rpp into Dorico, transfer the project, open a REAPER project in Dorico), and none of it needs retyping a note. Upload the .rpp and it converts to a MusicXML score Dorico imports with every MIDI track as a part and the tempo and time signature intact; audio tracks aren’t written, since a score can’t hold audio.

What carries over from REAPER to Dorico?

Every MIDI track becomes a part with its name, its notes engraved on one timeline at the project’s tempo and time signature: barred, spelled for the key, with chords, rests, ties across bar lines, dots and beams by the beat, and the clef each part’s range needs. A score has no mixer, so plugins, levels, sends and automation have no place in it and aren’t written; the report names what stayed behind. Audio tracks aren’t written, since a score can’t hold audio. Dynamics, articulations, slurs and lyrics aren’t invented: a DAW project has no model for them. A swung part is written as it was played (dotted pairs) rather than marked “Swing”, and a tempo change partway through isn’t written yet: the score takes the opening tempo.

Do my plugins transfer from REAPER to Dorico?

A score has no mixer, so plugins, levels, sends and automation have no place in it and aren’t written; the report names what stayed behind. Nothing is faked: whatever doesn’t cross the REAPER–Dorico 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.
