Cursor Hand Goes Missing

Has anyone had this issue: The cursor hand that pops up when dragging MIDI notes or dragging WAVs longer or shorter randomly goes missing. I can still see the arrow and the plus, but the little hand that should pop up when making MIDI or WAVs longer or shorter just goes away. I've tried toggling the...

Re: Double Click Select-All

I have the double click settings on my Mac set to the fastest. And, in DP, in the MIDI editing preferences, I've set double click to "do nothing." This double click select-all thing also happens when editing controllers in audio as well. Maybe it's not a double click. Maybe it's a click on...

Double Click Select-All

Please please please tell me how to make a double click STOP selecting all. For example, I click on a MIDI note, then click again, and it selects ALL the MIDI notes. or, I click on a volume controller, then click again, and it selects ALL the volume controllers. I want this to stop. How do I get it ...

Dragging MIDI Notes Up and Down

When dragging MIDI notes in the MIDI editor long distances, DP is placing the MIDI note much lower than the desired target. For example, if I want to drag a MIDI note up from C1 to C6, I can grab the C1, scroll up to C6, release my mouse button, and the note drops down to a random note, such as an F...

Edit Per Note Event

Just made a giant upgrade from DP 8 to DP 11.
Noticed in the MIDI Editor there's a button for "Edit Per Note Event" that seems to get activated when I double-click on a MIDI note. What is this? How can I turn it off?

Re: Bounce Out WAV with Timecode embedded

Thanks, Mike.

I ended up just putting audio on the right and timecode on the left. Seemed to work for what I needed. But your advice is excellent moving forward. Thanks again.

Bounce Out WAV with Timecode embedded

Hello All,

How do I bounce out a WAV file, but also include timecode information embedded within that WAV?

Thanks!

Re: MP3 Turns into WAV Upon Import

Hi Aaron, I think all 'proper' DAWs convert compressed formats in order to work with them. This I think is to get round the issues of the way file compression works. I'm no expert at all but I think often compression works by having a mixture of full fat audio frames (called I-Frames) with all the ...

Re: MP3 Turns into WAV Upon Import

Tonio, I don't see this preference. Can you be more specific?
I have Automatic Conversions turned off and all parameters set to "Never"

MP3 Turns into WAV Upon Import

Hello,

I'm important fairly large mp3s into DP (75MB, 1 hour, 30 minutes).
Upon importing each file, DP is turning the mp3 into a WAV (1.38GB)!
Is this normal for an mp3 to be turned into a WAV upon import?
OR
Is there a setting to turn this feature on/off?

Thank you!

Stereo WAV --> Mono Output

In Ableton Live, I'm able to route a stereo WAV through a mono output.

Is this possible in DP?

Re: Ultralite Hiss

Yes! The Output in CueMix was set to Analog 1-2. Upon changing it to Main Out 1-2, the hiss is gone!

THANK YOU!!!

Ultralite Hiss

Briefly: Recording a MIDI track live, in real-time, to a Stereo Audio track using UltraLite interface. Output: MIDI track is Analog 1-2 out. Input: Stereo Audio track is Analog 3-4 in. Getting what sounds like a high-pitched feedback loop hiss when the Stereo Audio track record button is engaged. Why?
