You can change your default setting for whether Dorico Pro interprets sustain pedal controllers as pedal lines when recording MIDI and importing or opening MIDI files.

Procedure

  1. Press Ctrl/Cmd-, to open Preferences.
  2. In the category list, click Play.
  3. In the Recording subsection, activate/deactivate Import CC64 as pedal lines.
  4. Optional: If you activated Import CC64 as pedal lines, activate/deactivate Snap pedal lines to previous beat.
  5. Click Apply, then Close.

Result

When Import CC64 as pedal lines is activated, the MIDI controller CC64 is interpreted as pedal lines.

When Snap pedal lines to previous beat is activated, the start of pedal lines is automatically moved back to the start of the beat.

Note

These options are also available in the MIDI Import Options dialog, and your settings are linked between this dialog and Preferences.
