Vocal Processing?

Hello This included YouTube link is of a music video by the Manhattan Transfer - Cantaloop (Flip Out). It includes some extraordinary scat singing. But not only is the singing extraordinary, but also the way in which the singing is processed. The vocals are being electronically processed for a certa...

To HUI or Not to HUI?

Hello, I just hooked up a Novation Impulse 61 MIDI keyboard to DP. Everything works fine. However, the Novation Impulse 61 MIDI keyboard makes available a HUI functional firmware interface whereby mouse-based mixing that would otherwise be done in DP can be accomplished with sliders on the Impulse 6...

Vienna Ensemble Pro 7 Crashing

I know this is a MOTU site. But, I'm using the latest version of Vienna Ensemble Pro(VEP) 7 within MOTU DP 11.02. I have three machines. The master is a new Intel iMac with Big Sur. My two support machines are Macs with Catalina. I've been using VEP with MOTU for years with countless plug-ins with n...

DP 10 Crashing

I've been using DP for years with many versions and have rarely had a crash. Now, I'm using DP 10 with a QT Movie and I've run into several crashes. Some were just DP and some were DP and the computer. I'm using Catalina 10.15.7, 72 GB of ram, 3.8 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i7. Are there any issues with ...

Is It Logical?

When I began working with my DAW, DP was first introduced to me. I wasn't even aware of the other available DAWS. I learned DP and have been overall very satisfied with DP. For some time now, It seems that when I hear other composers and musicians talk about which DAW they use, Logic seems to come u...

Re: Is it OK to upgrade to Big Sur?

I called Apple. They informed me that the new iMac would have Big Sur installed. Which is fine for the 3D side of things. I asked about the other boot side to support the music software. I mentioned that my current machines all have Mojave. Apple said it would be no problem to put Mojave on the othe...

Re: Is it OK to upgrade to Big Sur?

I wanted to take the opportunity to thank the above person for suggesting dual-boot as a solution to my 3D Rendering/Music production dilemma. When my new iMac arrives it will be pre-loaded with Big Sur which I will use in my 3D rendering. I will also create a partition in the iMac and load Catalina...

Re: Is it OK to upgrade to Big Sur?

If I'm reading you correctly, you've been wrestling with some of the issues I've been wrestling with lately. After hearing about M1 and wanting a M1 iMac, I initially thought I would wait until the M1 iMac came out - rather than getting the 2020 27" iMac. But then, the more I thought about when...

Re: Is it OK to upgrade to Big Sur?

I just came across Sweetwater's Big Sur: Compatibility Guide - https://www.sweetwater.com/sweetcare/articles/macos-11-big-sur-compatibility-guide/#macOS-11-Big-Sur-Compatibility-List It is not very encouraging. It seems like so many of the music apps are not compatible with Big Sur. It poses a parti...

Is it OK to upgrade to Big Sur?

My studio involves working with MOTU/DP, Vienna Ensemble Pro (VEP), a slew of commonly used Virtual instruments (VIs) and 3D production and rendering. In both situations I have one master computer networked with two clients. So, the master is the same for both configurations. For much of the last ye...

Re: How to Connect Amplitube 4 to DP With MIDI

I wanted to share with everyone the solution to the problem I was running into. I contacted Amplitube tech support, read through the entire manual, and tried every approach they recommended to no avail. I finally contacted MOTU tech support. I got a prompt reply. Here is what they said, "MIDI L...

How to Connect Amplitube 4 to DP With MIDI

Hello, I just downloaded IK Multimedia Amplitube 4 (AT4). I'm attempting to add an AT4 Wah pedal to a guitar virtual instrument (VI). The AT4 and Wah downloads went well. In the DP Mixer I've been able to open up AT4 and the Wah and manipulate the Wah pedal with my mouse. I can hear the VI and Wah. ...

Catalina

Hello,

I'm using Vienna Ensemble Pro 7.0.904 on a master and two slaves - all Macs with Mac OS Mojave 10.14.5, DP 9.52 and a slew of plugins.

My question is if it is safe to upgrade to Mac OSX Catalina now, or are there conflicts still unresolved? Is it best to wait?

Please advise.

Thanks!
