Are the new Apple Silicon Macs fast enough to run a VM of a legacy DP setup. I have a complicated DP live performance environment (using legacy plugs that are no longer supported) running on Mojave on a 2018 Macbook Pro i7. At this point there is no path forward for me. I am considering hosting the ...

UPDATE UPDATE.

I'm getting old. Preferences - Consolidated Window - Update the edit windows to play enabled chunk.

UPDATE: I just tried setting the arrow keys as Up/Down chunk in DP 10 and it works! All the windows sync. Am assuming DP 11 is the same, but oh those legacy plugins... So end of problem. Sorry to bother. Tho if someone does have OSC code for OSCulator or a similar iOS app, I would klove to know abou...

Well thank you. IF you can select Chunks via OSC you can also... We are a track act duo and occasionally play with other musicians. I put a cheat sheet for the bass player in the Lyrics Window, and do the iPad thing for them. I have experimented with adding a second large wired monitor, but you coul...

I have been hanging on to DP control, but wonder how long I will be able to connect via Wi-fi with my old iOS devices (iPhone 4, iPad Mini 2.) DP control uses OSC and so has a "deep" connectivity with DP. I have DP 11 but still rely on DP 9 live (old plugs...) and it works great. I rely on...

THis was a discussion about the M2 chip.

My buddy who is an Apple developer and tour level computer music tech has just replied to an email. He tells me that you should NEVER run VIs directly inside DP, precisely because you cannot control core/thread usage. The correct method is to use a Vrack for real time audio processing, but to use Ma...

Of course I misspoke, it was 2010 ish, and that article I now remember was actually posted on MOTUs web site. Please forgive an old guy who has used computers in music since almost day one (Atari ST) who can't keep track of the passing decades. BTW, the "Puff" resume was a specific respons...

I still have DP9 on the little guy, no plans or need to upgrade.

Did hafta update the Waves when I upgraded to OS X 10.15, but that's the absolute last change I'm making.

I learnt how to use DP live correctly by reading an article by Madonna's keyboard tech late 90s, apparently you are not familiar with the technique. All real time audio input and output, vocal and instrument processing (Guitar Rig) and mixing is done in a V-rack, using Aux channels (that cannot be a...

The Wave hung on till 2006, there's a luxury condo on most of that block now. The 7-11 is still there tho! I still see Mark occasionally. He's a maintenance guy at the Bishop museum and plays regularly. I played bass in bands with him drumming back then. A monster. He also had a run in Vancouver lat...

I live downtown Bishop and Beretania. Moved here in 88, a touring musician. Played the Wave Waikiki and met a local haole gal (a singer.) We were here for 6 months, when it was time to fly back to Canada, we decided to get married. Lotsa Canadian bands played the Wave back then, and many lost member...

Last word from me on this. I just moved the project back to my 2015 11" (!!!) MBA 2 core 2.6 i7 (I love it because it' so tiny.) At a 64 buffer, processor idle is about 40, and 90ish when a track is running (with the odd red peak.) I'l prolly just keep it at 128 for gigs. I'm an IT admin, datab...

I bought DP 11 10 days ago why would I not get the latest version (he said naively)? I did reach out to support and was told only to increase the buffer size and check "live performance." My (two) followup questions about only being able to utilize 15% of the M2 have not been answered. Any...

It's a cheezy bar single with half MIDI tracks and half stereo audio tracks. I run one instance of Roland Sound Canvas, 2 of Korg M1 and Apple's DLS player with a 32GB sound font. Romplers. My 2015 MBA i7 2 core (Geekbench 2000) has just enough ooomph to run the project at 128 buffer. The CPU hogs a...
