Re: Catalina compatible drivers posted

Anyone sure if these work with the 828 mk2 yet? I have an 828 mk2. When I upgraded to High Sierra, the first time the MOTU Audio Setup app opened I got that "this app is not optimized" message, meaning that it is 32 bit. I was able to use the 828 mk2. This was with the latest MOTU firewir...

Re: MOTU 828 fried by accident :(

Thanks, tekara. Better late than never!

I replaced that original 828 w/ an 828 Mk II with a discount from MOTU after MOTU could not fix the original 828.

Re: New, Larger HD Time -- USB 3 or FireWire 800??

Thanks, guys. :) It's a 2017 i7 4 Ghz iMac bought fall 2017. When I got it, I already had the "recording" drive and the "samples" drive. Both were OWC. The "samples" drive was/still is a Mercury Elite w/ both FW800 and USB 3 ports. The "recording" drive was/st...

New, Larger HD Time -- USB 3 or FireWire 800??

Would be great to get some helpful input and advice about this buying decision I need to make now. I'm outgrowing one of my external drives. It is a 7200 RPM Fire Wire 800 ("FW") hard drive ("HD"), which I use for my DP projects and songs. (My other external HD is a 7200 RPM FW 8...

Re: Europa for all !

Has anybody had a problem authorizing the plugin? I have — after entering the license code the OK button does nothing when clicked and you can't authorize. Tried both by copy and past of license code and manually entering it too, and also tried both AU and VST. I put a support request into Propeller...

There are some great UVI sound banks I really love. Especially recommend you check out, among others, Retro Organ Suite, UVI String Machines, and the 3d party B-5 Organ. UVI's World Suite is also great.

Re: UVI Workstation 3 released into the wild...

After downloading the update, I was disappointed to see that you still cannot save single presets, only multi presets. There has long been one of the things I do not like about UVI workstation. I have tried workarounds but they do not work. Yes, you can save a single sound in a multi preset and then...

Re: Plug-in Sales and Special Deals Sticky Topic

Thanks, MLC. I'm intrigued, I like the dual OSC architecture with each having its own arp and mod and other settings too. But I need another synth like another hole in my head.....but I'm tempted, and have watched the overview video. It seems you think it sounds good, but hard to tell from what you ...

Re: Plug-in Sales and Special Deals Sticky Topic

Is anyone else seeing this with Bridgewize— I can't get the options drop down menu to show when clicking on it, it just quickly flashes for 1/2 a second and then goes away (have tried both left and right clicking). So I can't select any options from that menu. I'm on a 2017 iMac 4 Ghz running Sierra...

Re: Plug-In Question

Best way would be to.... use ProTools or the many other DAWs that can do this and things like it with plugins. I really hope DP 10 addresses this and makes using plugins far more robust (e.g., selecting multiple plugins with drag selecting, then acting on all selected plugins such as bypass on/off, ...

I know what you mean.

So far so good, and I did note that it has a very solid feel to it.

Re: PreSonus FaderPort

Thanks, James. So Far, the only negative is the Clip button on the Xtouch does not clear the clip light on the Xtouch itself, though it does clear the clip indicators in DP.

I've read that's a problem w/ DP and MCU and Mackie Protocol.

Wonder if folks with the MCU have the same problem?

Re: PreSonus FaderPort

Got a FaderPort 8 and returned it. Got the Behringer Xtouch instead. The FaderPort 8 buttons implementation is extremely limited, fewer buttons than the MCU (which maps to DP), doesn't really map well to DP, plus though I thought in theory I would not, I did miss having a master fader. And did not l...
