Super excited to try out the new nanosampler and to probe the limits of NI Komplete Kontrol integration w/the S88mkII. This may (or may not) address the wishes I had regarding app-wide or Clippings-exportable Custom Consoles.

Woohoo!

The MOTU website says a Big Sur compatibility is in the works (and presumably Monterey after that). DP11 is also coming. M1 compatibility too, as confirmed in MOTU's twice weekly webinars. Good to know; I was not aware of the webinars either. I’m sure Big Sur support is coming. There are things you...

Gonna ask the dread question: Is all this, taken in the context of no Big Sur support (M1, Intel or otherwise), MOTU's way of hinting that it's time to leave these elysian fields and move on? Or am I jumping the gun? Because keeping my main CPU on Catalina solely for DP10 (and, to a lesser degree, R...

Given the newly broad interest in basic synth sounds in the age of synthwave, I've suddenly found myself looking at the very basic, very stackable MOTU included synths with new eyes. And now, wouldn't you know it, for some reason Modulo and MX4 are the only ones showing up in my instrument menu.... ...

Why anyone would want to compromise performance by installing any 2.5” or 3.5” drive internally is beyond me. Kinda’ like buying a Ferrari and deciding it won’t be right without a banana stuffed into each tailpipe (no reflection on any Simian friends who might think that’s cool). It's called $$$ Mi...

OK so from the teardown site: Better necessarily implies different. Apple sought to build a better SSD, and in many ways they did. If you don’t want to leverage the increased security, excellent performance, and higher capacity options that the T2 enables, you don’t have to use it. Buy the base 256 ...

This is what i can’t get a clear sense of: so we can just slot NVMe drives in, or we can’t? Do they need to lack integrated controllers to be compatible or will it matter? There’s so much bellyaching going on about the replaceability of the storage and the need for compatibility with the T2 controll...

What’s really driving me nuts about what's currently known about the new MP is storage. I need to add more SSD capacity beyond 4TB, it’s perfectly fine if it’s not secure/encrypted (just gonna be VI content) and, at the moment, there’s no clear path to doing that. I don’t want platters, other than f...

Also not seeing any double playback with copying. I've thrown together a couple of sessions from scratch just using Clips for the hell of it and it's been quite robust. The only hitch came when I tried to invoke Groove Quantize during playback; that got me some wheels and glitchy, very long delays. ...

But, since I only use DP for work 8 days a week I don’t need to know what’s wrong with it. At least not until it’s fixed or going to be... So how do you deal with the issue? Does it just not happen to you/ isn't relevant to your workflow? At which point we’ll be hearing from the people who liked it...

Precisely. We're NOT editing tape (no more razor cuts! lol) There's really no need to have all in one cohesive, all encompassing track unless you're going to print in which case DP may be your worst choice ever! In fact, at the moment NO APP is the best choice for THAT. But come on, what drives the...

..0.copy pasting data is going to seem like a waste of time compared to just playing the part again. DING DING DING!!!! We have a winner. From a musicians standpoint, I couldn't agree more. OTOH, if you are creating complex mixes and want to move your sh$t around they way these guys seem to want to...

Not me, man. Italian family from Trenton. I had a Teamsters answering machine. You kiddin me?


(P.S. Is this off-topic?)

All I can say is if it's THAT important to you and another app does what you need done better than DP, than just 'effing use the other app. And I guess I am being somewhat argumentative there if anyone cares to take it that way. That's ok. I'm doing score after score in DP and have for decades and ...
