I skipped version 6. I got caught up in other things and by the time I was looking into it, I could see it being universally panned on here, and that was that. Good advice about repairing permissions. DP8 will be here on Thursday, and I should have some time to install and play around since my girl ...

Sure, sure. I can be patient. I was hoping to have it by Tuesday, who knows... maybe I will. Regardless, I will be happy to get to know DP8, although it looks pretty similar to 7.

Which isn't a bad thing.

It is! But it's asking me for some code that is found in the manual, which I don't have yet. None of the information from my online account seems to be what I need. I could be completely wrong, though.

Thanks! As a funny note, I decided to upgrade to DP8, thinking I could download the full version of that. No can do, apparently! I still need to wait for the delivery. The reason for all of this, by the way, is that I am taking a class on Final Cut Pro X. The professor was asking me about Logic, and...

Thanks for the help! Perhaps I'm crazy and there never was a full version 7 download. I'm not against buying 8, that's for sure, but the sad fact is I'm very rusty with Digital Performer, and will have to learn how to use it again regardless. And seeing as I'm currently in a class on Final Cut Pro X...

Hey all, I seem to remember that the MOTU site would have the full version of Digital Performer that one could download, and I just got a new computer, without a disc drive. Not only that, but my disk of DP7 (along with my manual, I'm legit) is all the way across town. I can access my MOTu account, ...

Right, but persuading one's self that Digital Performer sounds better based on this test only makes you the same as all the myopic people you complain about on Gearslutz, only myopic about different software. That's what I'm trying to tell folks. Don't like the Gearslutz Pro Tools bullies and their ...

I'm in. I'll be getting the Concert Strings and the Concert Brass. I think that'll make me an owner of all of Kirk's stuff, I have the older libraries (Emerald and Ruby, I think).

I am pretty pleased with them. I'll likely be wanting the EastWest stuff at some point as well, though.

Maybe so. But these people were not the usual cows or sheep who blindly follow anything. They were professional engineers with strong egos and opinions... I doubt any of them would be "afraid" of disagreeing with another one. The test just shows they preferred the sound of one DAW over th...

It's not you! I like you, and I like Digital Performer! It's just that unlike some of you, I do participate in Gearslutz... probably more than is mentally healthy. One of the main things I do on that site is to combat audio myths. Chief among those is the concept that different DAWs sound differentl...

Sorry, Radiogal. There are a lot of problems with this "test" of yours, and I can't accept the results. I know I'm raining on the parade here. But it's not scientific, which means it's only anecdotal. There's enough of that already regarding the "sound" of DAWs. I fight against t...

No, that's the same. My apologies.

Just thought I would pass this along, I know some people here might be interested. It's apparently at 50% off. I might get the concert brass.

Yeah, their policy of selling crippleware has already cost them the prosumer market, as far as I can tell. It doesn't take much research to find that Pro Tools is the worst deal around as far as any native based DAW, the old LE line and M-Powered were just plainly inferior to DP, Logic or any other....

Everyone should know that the RAM loading feature is only available in Pro Tools HD, HD Native, or the standalone applications ("10") that have the Toolkit... I forget which Toolkit. I think there's only one now, that $2k monstrosity. I really don't want to delve into Avid's bizarre market...
