Re: Oddball Bug or User Error???

Hey!

I was having this exact problem WITH THE EXACT SAME PITCH and this 2018 conversation just completely fixed me up.

Thank, everyone, for reuniting me with my F#3!

Re: .amr -> wav not importing

I had the same thought, but, for some reason, I can't convert the file to mp3.

VLC imports the .amr fine, it'll spit out the wav okay, but when I try to convert to mp3, it just gives me a weird TextEdit file!

.amr -> wav not importing

Hello!

Might anyone know why a .amr file, which I converted to a .wav, won't import into DP from an external drive or my system drive?

Every other wav/audio file on my computer (system drive or external drive) imports fine.

Thanks!

Re: Apogee Quartet and Mono Wav Files

I tried to export the tracks in a number of ways: 1. I tried to simply grab a soundbite from the sequence window and drag it onto the desktop (this is usually my go-to). 2. I tried selecting a soundbite and using the Export Audio feature. 3. I tried selecting a soundbite using "Merge Soundbites...

Re: Apogee Quartet and Mono Wav Files

No. That's why I was asking for specifics. When you play something from the finder, settings in Audio MIDI Setup come into play. Stereo files will play to two channels of your selected output device as will mono files (both channels equal). But here's the rub. With my Apogee Rosetta (for some stran...

Re: Apogee Quartet and Mono Wav Files

Thanks, Rick. 1. Everything is routed correctly in DP. Everything's going out to the quartet. 2. Is this different from what I mentioned above wherein I outputted (via System Preferences -> Sound -> Built in Output) everything through the Mac's internal speakers (and everything played fine)? 3. That...

Re: Apogee Quartet and Mono Wav Files

Hi there, Phil. The Maestro 2 software is only being used to monitor the mic in the VO booth; when the software is closed, audio (browser sound, iTunes, etc.) plays fine -- as do STEREO wav files and DP project files. It's just exported MONO files that don't play. That's the one super weird thing: I...

Re: Apogee Quartet and Mono Wav Files

Thanks for the response, Rick. I've definitely made that mistake as well. The issue I'm currently having -- while certainly, in part, looking similar to that situation -- is a bit deeper and more confusing. The mono track I was trying to export from DP was for sure play enabled. As I mentioned in my...

Apogee Quartet and Mono Wav Files

I was working this week in a studio that's not my studio and we were running DP 9.5 through an Apogee Quartet (using Apogee's Maestro 2 software for zero-latency monitoring). The session was a straight, super basic VO session -- a mono audio track and a single AKG C414. After I edited everything, in...

Re: Komplete Pitch Issue

This just happened again and maybe provided another data point: I have one instance of Kontakt opened inside of a DP project file. Each Kontakt instrument I’m using, of course, is assigned to its own MIDI track inside of the DP sequence. At the EXACT same moment that the bass transposed itself a maj...

Re: Komplete Pitch Issue

At this point, I usually consider that it has to be ghosts -- poltergeists to be exact. Ha! This issue is almost enough to make me a believer! I'm confused. How does a keyboard controller not send pitch data? Time to beak out the trusty Snoize MIDI monitor and see what's really happening: The MOTU ...

Re: Komplete Pitch Issue

I chatted to MOTU about it and they had two suggestions: 1. My controller could be sending out random weird pitch data, however: A. The controller that's hooked up (an Akai LPK25) doesn't send pitch data B. Even if it did, I can't imagine that it would uniformly alter already-programmed MIDI informa...

Re: Komplete Pitch Issue

It turns out that this issue is not only happening in Kontakt. It's happening in pretty much any plug-in -- even MAS plug-ins.

More interestingly, when it happens, if I just save everything exactly how it is, close DP and reopen the project, it's back to normal.

Totally weird.

Re: Komplete Pitch Issue

Everything is checked in the Even Chasing window, so yes.

But, also, unless there's some key command that would've enabled it by accident, I definitely haven't gone in there for anything.

Komplete Pitch Issue

I'm using Komplete as a plug-in with DP 9.02. Absolutely nothing has changed about my set-up for months. For some reason, in the past couple days, seemingly random Kontakt instruments will just change pitch. Like, the MIDI data is correct, but Kontakt starts transposing the pitches. It's not project...
