Mach Five 3 Wrong Outputs for Recording

I've just encountered an error when I went to record a bass line using MachFive 3. I selected OUT 2 in MachFive, but when I select the track to record it, the inputs are one off. Instead of it saying "3-4", it says 4-5. In fact in "Bundles", all of the MachFive outputs are saying...

MX4 Missing in DP

Anyone else have this problem?? I'm running DP 9.51. MX4 shows up the preferences (MAS). However, it is nowhere to be found in the Add Instruments window. I had the plug-in examined and re-examined by DP - disabled it, enabled it - still not showing up.
Not quite sure how to fix it....

1248 Stuck in Update Mode

This morning I got a firmware notification for my 1248. I selected it and started the update process. However, I kept getting a "connect ethernet cable" message (it was already connected). Then I thought I'd download the update from MOTU. However, nothing is happening and I'm stuck in upda...

Re: MX4 suddenly missing in DP 9.13

Well, life is getting more interesting! MOTU told me to place the folder com.motu.MotuAudioSystem on the desktop and restart DP. Now the Examiner is hung up on MachFive3. So.... looks like another problem has cropped up.

So, if I do a complete re-install of DP, what do I need to trash????

Re: MX4 suddenly missing in DP 9.13

You might check for multiple mx4.patches.backup files. Once those were removed from my system MX4 started showing up as expected. I found 7 mx4.patches.backup files. I threw them in the trash and restarted. However, it still isn't loading into the program - doesn't show up in "instruments"...

MX4 suddenly missing in DP 9.13

I upgraded to 9.13 a few weeks back, only to find out that it was buggy. So I "downgraded" to 9.12. Ever since that, I cannot find MX4 in my instrument plugins (I'm now using the improved 9.13) I've gone into the preferences, where MX4 is shown and had it reexamined. Still nothing. Not sur...

DP 9.13 keeps crashing!

I just upgraded a couple of days ago. However, in the last couple of days, DP is crashing. I'm editing mono dialogue to be placed in a film - very simple. But when I add a cross fade, or move audio, the beach ball of death appears and I have to restart the program. Not sure if anyone else is having ...

CueMix all screwed up after update!

Yesterday, I tried to connect my 8pre with my 2408mkIII set up. Couldn't get it to work. Talked to MOTU support - no help. So today, I decide to upgrade my pci drivers. Now CueMix is all screwed up. I can hear the sound coming in, but it's not being displayed properly. If I bring it in to channels 1...

Anyone using the 8pre with a 2408mkIII?

I just purchased an 8pre to use with my laptop. I also want to use it with my studio set up. However, I can't seem to get the 8pre to work with my 2408mkIII. I even called up MOTU support and worked on the phone for nearly an hour. Guess what? They couldn't get their's to work either. Here's what I'...

Removing embedded files

A friend of mine has sent a file of a long medley (500 measures) for me to record vocals and mix. I've got a problem. She's using an Alesis QS8 and a Roland 1080. I've got a Yamaha S90, Triton Rack and Mach 5. When I play back her file, I get all the wrong sounds. No matter what I try: inserting pat...

DP tap tempo freezing

Maybe I'm missing something. I've just upgraded to DP5. I've noticed that when I try to modify the tempo map using "tap tempo", the program freezes. I get a count off and one note plays - that's it! The counter keeps moving, but no playback. When I hit stop, no tempo has been recorded. In ...

Thanks Frodo,

I think I'll dive into DP and see what happens.
