and I should add, I find moving between DP and ProTools (both of which I use professionally) very easy........

and I am English and an engineer........ but I am also a musician and writer!!!!

What if you create two mono tracks, don't you see a choice of inputs?

Just mute or solo elements as you wish, but leave processing or FX in place.

If you are using overall compression there will be differences to how this affects the track with or without key elements. Best not overdo the compression.

This is also sometimes known as mixing 'stems'. I started about 15 years ago doing separate stems of backing and vocals so as to avoid doing mixes with vocal up and vocal down etc, but now it seems standard to do this with as many elements of the mix as you fancy.

DP can now compensate for this, but with FCP you are kind of stuck with audio and video through FW, or manually offsetting the audio by 7 or 8 frames, but this will make spotting a nightmare. It would be nice if this could b...

I had this... there is advice at Motu.com you need to repair disk permissions: (follows quote from Motu support) Q: After I installed Digital Performer, AudioDesk, or Unisyn, entered my name and keycode, and pressed okay, the box disappears for a few seconds and then asks for my name and keycode aga...

Are you monitoring inputs 7-8 through an audio track or an aux track? should be an aux unless you are recording...

Stephen

No, I've got it. WOW!!
