Re: Behringer 369 - Vintage Stereo Compressor Limiter

Not sure what's going on, but when I opened that image in a separate tab, one of the knobs on the image came off, and I could swear I saw smoke coming out from behind. I had to wiggle the jack to get sound out of the right channel. As soon as I closed the tab, everything was ok again. :)

Re: DP + Airfoil 2024?

Latency with Airfoil is significant (in seconds, not ms). In the past, I recall it could do some latency compensation when working with some video formats, but not sure if that's still the case.

Re: DP Gripes, and things that have (almost) pushed me to Cubase

Maybe ask directly whether they consider it a bug. My bet is they don’t I was actually reviving an older techlink wherein they did blame it on 3rd party VI's. But I tried to clarify in my update that this affects non-MAS plugins, that some tempos seemed to affect the issue, and uploaded an example ...

Re: Do's ans Don't's for a Crash free DP

IMOE, DP crashes are very uncommon. But I'm still learning to hit Cmd+S after any valuable change in a mix or after any great take. DP crashes all the time for me. And I have gotten pretty conditioned to save often. But lately, it is the auto-saves that have prevented lost work more than my manual ...

Re: DP Gripes, and things that have (almost) pushed me to Cubase

3 full weeks since I updated my techlink about the consecutive note bug. Not a peep from MOTU support on that topic. I think I was pretty polite about it. I'll ping them again today.

They did respond immediately to my feature request about some grid snap options.

Re: UJAM Amber 2 Steel String Acoustic Guitar VI - $19 with Code

Nice one. Thanks, James. Ordinarily, I don't bother with guitar sims because I can just track them myself, but recording at home now has practical obstacles, so this might prove useful. Though I can tell it's not entirely realistic, even with it's slight fake-ishness, it's an interesting and pleasan...

Re: Behringer 369 - Vintage Stereo Compressor Limiter

It's a pretty impressive concept, design, and feature set. That price is pretty friendly, too (perhaps the only "friendly" thing about B-word).

I bet they'll sell a bunch.

I saw one funny comment: "I'll wait for the Mk 2".

Re: Audio Editor for Mac that can auto-truncate?

Just in case anyone is tracking this topic, I may have found a free (!) solution, right under my nose. Audacity has a set of features I'd never used. First is how it does batch processing. You can create a "Chain" of processes, then you can "Apply Chains" to either the currrent p...

Re: Audio Editor for Mac that can auto-truncate?

Thanks. As I mentioned, I'm aware of what DP does. I probably should have mentioned, this isn't for tracks. It's for a bunch of short samples.. Strip Silence doesn't have much resolution in the level setting. Also, it's the way I have to drag tons of samples into tracks, then export them. I was hopi...

Audio Editor for Mac that can auto-truncate?

I have a specific task where I need to trim some silence from samples. Ideally, I'd like a batch editor which allows me to set a threshold, and some pre/post roll. In essence: 1. Trim start from zero to XX ms/samples before breaking YY.Y dB threshold. 2. Trim tail XX ms/samples after dropping below ...

Re: Using Older MOTU Firewire Devices + Newer Macs / Thunderbolt 4

You should wait until your new Mac arrives to run some tests before investing in new equipment. It might be useful to clarify if something has changed about Apple's "approach" to firewire. I.e., will it absolutely not work, or does it's tolerance of firewire connection continue to be 'vest...
