The history and future of Dorico for iPad

Daniel Spreadbury returns to the podcast to go behind the scenes into the making of Dorico for iPad. Daniel is the product’s marketing manager at Steinberg, and he takes Philip Rothman and David MacDonald through the process of developing this new version of Dorico. We go through everything from the technical details all the way up to the user experience, and Daniel recalls the crucial decisions and pivotal moments that culminated in Dorico’s release for iPad. We get Daniel’s take on what’s currently available for iPad-based music apps, and explore how Dorico both compares to and works alongside those products. He shares his “a-ha” moment when he knew that Dorico for iPad would be a success, and he also explains the rationale for the subscription-based pricing that unlocks its full set of features. And speaking of features, Daniel reveals a forthcoming update to the app that will make Dorico for iPad a lot more valuable for many people.
