User manual

The MIDI Import Options dialog contains the following sections:
1 Instrument handling
The options in this section determine how Dorico Elements chooses and names instruments
based on the imported MIDI
le.
The Quantize Options button opens the MIDI Quantize Options dialog, which allows you
to customize the quantization settings.
2 Keyboard handling
The options in this section determine how Dorico Elements interprets keyboard music based
on the imported MIDI
le, including the MIDI note number at which notes are split between
the right and left hand staves and whether CC64 indicates pedal lines.
3
Performance preservation
The options in this section allow you to determine how much of the original performance
in the MIDI
le you want to preserve for playback purposes. They do not affect how the
imported MIDI notes are notated, as this is controlled by the quantization options set.
4
Player handling
The options in this section allow you to determine the players and layouts to which
instruments in the MIDI le are assigned. For example, if you are importing a MIDI le
into an existing project in order to orchestrate, you might want to activate Create player
group for new players and deactivate Create part layouts for new players to add a single,
independent group of players without creating any extra part layouts for them.
