Re: Very Basic Question: Playing iTunes throuth 828mk3

Yes I did that.

Managed to find the problem: need to right click on the 828 icon in Audio MIDI Setup and choose the outputs! Don't know how it got changed and damndably hidden.

Cheers

Very Basic Question: Playing iTunes throuth 828mk3

Due to moving house I have not used my 828 for some time. Also, updated to Yosemite and updated drivers. So I am not sure if it's my incompetence or new OS at fault. All my keyboards are plying fine through the 828k3. However, I cannot get iTunes to play. I am guessing it is something set wrong in C...

828mk3 and logic pro x

Long time user of DP but I'm now looking into Logic X.

Re: Logic Pro X

It's the copy protection with DP that is pushing me towards Logic. I recently got a new imac and used migration assistant to move everything across. DP however want me to insert the CD and type in the key code. No dvd drives in most macs now. So, even though I have been a paying customer for donkeys...

iMac i5 or i7 for DP

Soon to upgrade my Mac. From what I have read, the i7 upgrade allows "hyper threading." Does DP7 take advantage of this?

Re: 828mkiii with cue mix reverb problem

Thanks very much for trying to help me out. Finally it was the mixes tab that was indeed the problem: the bus 1 reverb send was on, which is the universal send, and hence the problem. Your comments forced me to look carefully at the mixes tab and I completely missed this.

So thanks again.

Re: 828mkiii with cue mix reverb problem

Thanks for the reply but it didn't help. I would like to have reverb only my Nord Lead 3. Is that so difficult???? The whole thing doesn't make sense to me: I click the INPUTS tab, change the focus to each channel and with the channel tab on the right section choses, put reverb send to zero for all ...

828mkiii with cue mix reverb problem

Hi all,

No matter what I try I cannot get a channel in cuemix to be completely dry. I go to the channel tab and set Reverb send to zero, but I can still hear reverb in that channel.

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Cheers

828mk3 reverb with mono track question

HI all,

Recording vocals on a mono track, the reverb is only coming through one side of the headphones. How do I get the reverb in stereo?

By the way, the 828mk2 was so nice and easy to use. The mk3 this is very hard to figure out, as the number of questions on here testifies. :(

Re: lion, 828mk3, USB and CPU spikes

Thanks for the reply. I changed it to 1 but it made no difference. Are you using USB or Firewire? I am wondering if USB is part of the problem. Also, I have never looked at the CPU usage much before, because I never had any problems. But after a restart, when things seem to be ok with the test file,...

lion, 828mk3, USB and CPU spikes

I just upgraded to lion and at the same time moved from mkii to 828mkiii. I also changed the connection from firewire to USB. This is making trouble-shooting very difficult. At the moment, I open DP with a single MIDI track and Omnisphere loaded. Buffer is at 128 or 256, sample rate 48000, host buff...

Re: 828mk3 another basic problem

Thanks very much that did the trick. And it also got the front panel volume knob working! Now I have just one final problem! I cannot get any of my software instruments, including the free ones with DP, to output enough volume. I push up the sliders in the DP mixer and put the plug in volumes (for e...

828mk3 another basic problem

For the main audio out, if I set: Cuemix bus 1 to Main Outs 1-2 MOTU audio setup Default Stereo Outputs to Main Out 1-2/Main Out Assign Main Out 1-2 So everything is set to the main out. The result is, in DP, hardware keyboards play fine. But Omnisphere etc, (set to main outs) are not heard! Why??? ...

Re: connecting 2 828s and USB vs FW

An addition question that the manual does not seem to explain: if we use ADAT (same as Toslink?) to connect a 828mkii to the to the 828mkiii, will the converters from the mkiii be used?

Re: urgent problem with new 828mk3

Thanks for the suggestion. Actually it turned out to be the Cuemix Mixes tab which needed to be set to Main Output. But there is something I don't understand. Maybe some one can explain: In the MOTU Audio Setup application, the default stereo output must be Analog 1-2. But why not Main Out 1-2? Espe...
