waveform editor help needed

I am not that experienced with DP5 and I would like to take a wav file, import it into DP5's waveform editor and create a soundbite or new wav file or a loop (not sure which) from a portion of the wav file. Basically, I'd like to create my own sample from a wav file and then use that sample in a new...

creating/importing/syncing samples with DP5

I'm still a newbie and I need some instruction as to how to do something. I tried doing some searches but I could not find what I was looking for on this forum. I would like to take an mp3 of a song I have and bring it into DP5 and work over it. So far I have figured out how to turn the mp3 into a s...

a basic beginner's guide?

I have returned to using a DAW to record music after a long hiatus and I've been fumbling through learning how to use DP5. I have a simple set up at home - a laptop, keyboard, guitar and mic with an ultralite and dp5 and some VSTs. Since I don't use the software everyday, I'm finding myself lost in ...

Novation Remote 25 LE

This is a new concept for me. You bought a MIDI controller to use with your keyboard? So you perform with your P70 and adjust the sounds with your 25LE? How? By assigning them to the same MIDI channel and using MIDI thru? Keyboard to controller to MIDI interface to computer? Can't I do the same with...

DP5 and CME's UF8

I just purchased a UF8 keyboard and, despite all the negative posts, I actually like it a lot. While I mainly purchased it for its keys, I would like to be able to use some of the controllers. But I'm not sure how to get them to work with DP5 and my virtual instruments. For example, I would like to ...

Thanks, Bob. You replied at the same time as I did, so the chain is a little out of sync. I still have so much to learn about this software and the hardware. At some point I will figure it all out and create some template projects so that everything is just set up and ready to work. If I find myself...

Thanks - I'll check out the Repeat function when I get home. I knew it had to be something simple, but I couldn't find it in the manual. I think it gets a bit confusing when the word "loop" can mean different things. You can loop a section of a sequence for overdubbing or playback. And som...

soundbites and audio tracks

Forgive me, I'm still a newbie... I experienced something frustrating this weekend with DP5 and I was wondering if y'all could help. I hope I can explain it correctly... I started a new project with no tracks and added an instrument track and a MIDI track for my MSI. I recorded some MIDI piano. I th...

This listing is nice - thanks! But how about creating a list of free VSI's for DP5 that are also UB? Thanks!

I don't have a fader set - I don't even know how to set those yet. Plus keep in mind, I've been working with an unchanged sequence - I've tried to export many different ways. Exporting to SDII worked without the faded intro - I just couldn't get iTunes to burn it to cd. I will keep trying to figure ...

I don't doubt that the sound quality would be improved. For example, I can tell the difference between an mp3 that was created at 128 vs 192 vs 320. Sometimes subtle differences, but my ears have no trouble hearing them. But if I record using the highest quality settings and I want to make a cd, the...

Great suggestions - I didn't think to try a different player. Turns out the same faded intro occurs even if I play the mp3 with quicktime. So here's what I tried today... First, I uninstalled SoundFlower since that didn't work for me (I wanted to use garageband sounds in DP5) and I wanted to make su...
