You can allow individual VST 2 instrument plug-ins that you want to use in Dorico Pro and block plug-ins you want to prevent Dorico Pro from using. Allowed plug-ins are subsequently available in any project.
Dorico Pro automatically blocks plug-ins that crash and plug-ins that Steinberg has not already qualified for use with Dorico Pro. Only Kontakt and NotePerformer are allowed by default.
