I am wondering if it is okay to load up DP on my MacBook (2019) which runs the latest Mac OS and use it to record live performances. I thought at one time it is okay to have another copy of DP loaded up and useable on another computer but not sure anymore. And, in a separate issue: has anyone used D...

Hi, I'm running MacOS 13.6.1 and everything is running peachy-king with no crashes. I know that we have Sonoma now at 14.2.1 and I've waited to do this transition because I basically don't want to experience bugs or problems with compatibility. Now I'm thinking I should go forward. So my question, i...

Don't know how to describe this but while using the tabs to go back and forth between Tracks and Mixing Board, something I am having to do many times while mastering tracks... I find the program DP displays the wrong sequence, usually the prior one. I fix that then go to mixing board and it still sh...

Hi, I want to minimize the list on my plug-ins choices to just the ones that are active or that I commonly use. After trying few demo type plug-ins and deciding not to buy, they still appear under the "Recent" list of Effects when adding a plug-in. I have no idea on how to stop them from a...

Is there a way to take a stereo track and split it to two mono tracks L and R?

Hi, I know another simple question... but I opened up some projects I did in 2006 and found that I had it set up for 8 plug-in inserts and 4 Aux busses when in reality I only need 3 inserts per channel of plug-ins and 2 busses. I don't know how to remove the extra inserts. Looked it up (searched) in...

This has been going on since I can remember. I will click on one of the tabs, say Tracks.... then go to Mixing Board and will see tracks highlighted in the Track Selector window indicating which tracks I have showing. If I add a few tracks there, the show up... but if I go back to the Tracks tab, or...

After rebooting my computer, I decided to try and "bypass" the plug-ins in the muted tracks. Doing so brought the system back to life. Now I am doing a plug-in bypass on anything that is not needed. that one thing helped speed things up tremendously. I should explain the way I've been usin...

I suppose my curiosity has caused this problem. I've been downloading different plug-ins and trying them out... now I'm suffering with a very slow bounce to disk, almost real time bounce when before if was nice and speedy. I'm a bit embarrassed to even ask for help or suggestions because I am not ab...

What is the preferred "primary" plug-in format? I've been using Audio Units, however that is not 100% compatible with Auto Align 2 which prefers the VST3 format. Don't want to switch over because maybe some other plug-ins won't work.

Did a little more research with Phase/Time issues and called on a buddy of mine who records acoustic guitar. Apparently there is a plug-in called Auto-Align 2 that will analyze your tracks and correct Phase and Time issues on the raw tracks before you mix or bounce tracks. https://www.soundradix.com...

I spent this morning recording acoustic guitar with M+S setup. I actually sounds a lot better. One less channel to worry about as well taking up space on the hard drive. I also set the MS Decoder a .83 so it is not full 100% stereo mix. I'm amazed to how much better it sounds. My next thing would be...

Nice mics! The MK 4 a standard go-to M in an M+S array. As long as that cable is wired correctly, it’s not the problem. 2 and 3 need to match on each connector so pop the shells and look. Don’t buy into the boutique cable marketing nonsense. Actually I was thinking of getting another Prolink cable....

Rick and Mike, I really appreciate your input on this. It does look like I am out of phase based on what I'm hearing. When doing an Invert Phase on the Center mic, everything appears louder for sure. Same thing if I invert phase on the Right channel. If I invert phase on both R and C, then the resul...
