The Apply Playback Template dialog allows you to change the playback template applied to the current project and to import/export playback templates. It also allows you to access the Edit Playback Template dialog.

  • You can open the Apply Playback Template dialog by choosing Play > Playback Template.

The Apply Playback Template dialog shows all the playback templates available on your computer in a table. Dorico Pro provides the following factory default playback templates:

  • HSSE (Elements): Intended for use with HALion Sonic SE.

  • HSSE+HSO (Pro): Intended for use with both HALion Sonic SE and HALion Symphonic Orchestra.

  • Silence: Prevents Dorico Pro from loading sounds.

Tip

Choosing the Silence template makes Dorico Pro project files significantly smaller; for example, if you want to send them electronically.
