Re: DP11.3 creating laggy metering for me

I had to revert back to Ventura because of some weird graphics issues; laggy meter, and strange jumpy wiper in Tracks & Sequence windows. I'm still on an Intel machine (Mac Mini 6 core i7 3.2GHz), and I have a feeling that Sonoma may not be so suited to Intel Macs. But DP was the only app that w...

Re: Anyone getting this error? - "an operation was attempted that will only succeed when not playing"

Thanks for the replies-- I didn't really get to the bottom of it, but it's looking like it was to do with that particular project; it's a soundtrack to a video installation, with LOTS of small soundbites playing back sound effects. I was moving those around to adjust their timings to the picture, an...

Anyone getting this error? - "an operation was attempted that will only succeed when not playing"

Hello-- I'm getting this error (see attached picture) when I am editing something in sequence editor, then rewind a little, either by grabbing the wiper and pulling it back, or double clicking the top part of the track, and hit space bar to start playback. Doesn't happen always, but happens quite of...

Re: General Question: What has Apple changed in Big Sur exactly??

Thank you guys for the replies :-) I didn't know that they changed the GUI framework for OS11, it makes sense why so many companies are taking long time to adapt-- I'm happily running OS10.15 in my studio, so OS11 isn't really a major concern at the moment, hopefully this transition will result in i...

General Question: What has Apple changed in Big Sur exactly??

Hi--

This is just a general question, I'm curious...
What has Apple changed in OS 11 exactly, which seems to be causing so much headaches in many companies?
MOTU seems to be one of the harder-hit companies from this transition, can any Mac expert here chime in?

Thank You- :-)

Re: Like a Bad Penny.... Bounce to Disk Issues

Hello-- I've been suffering from hung BTD from time to time too. In my experience, it's not due to plug-ins or VIs, nor whether I'm using internal or external disk to record. It seems to me that it happens more when there's video involved in the project, but I've had the problem with audio only proj...

Re: DP10.11 - Pausing multiple times during offline bounce

Hello-- I've suffered from this problem every once in a while, for no apparent reason, happened even with one audio track with no plug in etc etc.. I've heard many users of other apps like FCPX, Photoshop etc are having various issues including file rendering, and it has been suggested that giving F...

Re: MachFive3 on Catalina?

Thank you for the replies :-) Initially the installer I downloaded from MOTU site didn't work, so I'd contacted tech support & they sent me another installer which worked on Catalina- When I use M5 on Catalina, it seems to overload CPU when I'm recording MIDI in real time; creating lots of CPU s...

Re: Zoom To Track?

MachFive3 on Catalina?

Hello--

As London UK has gone into Corona semi-lockdown, I'm using this time to finally go Catalina.
Clean install and all, which I haven't done since... 10.5 or 6 era ;-)

Does MachFive 3.2.1 work with Catalina (incl. installer)??

Thanks -!

Re: Stuck BTD

..It seems my "Stuck BTD" symptom is definitely related to Undo History..
If I flush all undo history entries before bouncing, I never get the "stuck" symptom, if I don't flush, bounce gets stuck at a fairly high probability.

Has anyone else noticed this??

Re: Stuck BTD

...It "seems" that flushing undo history helps with this.
I haven't had a 'stuck' since I started flushing undo history just before bouncing..
Though I only did a handful of bounces so far so I will see.. :-)

Re: Stuck BTD

Hello--

Thanks for the suggestions :-)
I followed the steps last night but I still had the stuck BTD happening.
But, this morning, I tested bouncing a few tracks and it seems to be OK, no stuck BTD so far.

I will see how it goes in the next proper session, hopefully it is now OK --
Thanks :-)
