I took the plunge -- figured I'd get in on the ground floor. I've installed it, activated it (I hate the Steinberg activation process!) and have only dabbled a tiny bit.
Definitely a different workflow from either Finale or Sibelius, but given the shaky nature of Finale's upgrades (anybody really happy with Finale25?) and Sibelius/Avid's shaky financial standings and less than wonderful upgrade to version 8 (not many on the Sibelius group at yahoogroups have upgraded past 7.5), I thought it might be smart to see what the potential is. Definitely a 1.0 product -- important things are missing but according to the Dorico publicity they are promised in updates coming over the next several months. It'll take some adjustment in my workflow and thought processes, but heck I've already mastered Finale (to a point) and Sibelius (to a point) so it shouldn't be too hard to learn a new program. I tried Notion and found it very much lacking and definitely not the serious music engraving program I need. So I'll see how things go with Dorico. I've started a yahoogroup for it: [email protected] if anybody wants to check it out. And there are the forums at Steinberg which anybody can join. It'll be an interesting next few months definitely!
