Michael, I had all the problems you mentioned and went back to DP7.22 after installing DP8 and I really like that you can use the new plug ins in DP7 :) Wow, you're correct. Although I removed DP8 and went back to 7.24, the new DP8 plugins, like subkick and pattern gate are still available. I haven...

Time Machine constantly backs-up my OS drive.

Uninstall's easy. Just drag DP8 from your applications folder to the trash. No more dedicated uninstaller.

Hi dix, I just imported and exported audio from DP 7.24, after installing DP8. I never deleted 7.24 from my computer, nor did I overwrite it. Don't know about Mackie control. I don't use it. The Reverse plug-in is still there. I'm not opening the file with the 7.24 option in DP8. I created a new fil...

I've been a MOTU user since 1985. Yes, that's right kids, 27 years. I've been waiting on pins and needles for DP8. After trying for a week to get satisfactory results from DP8, I'm going back to DP 7.24. I have a MAC Pro 12 core with 24GB RAM connected to an older MAC Pro w/ 16 GB RAM via VEPRO. I r...

Thanks ironchef. I'm just disappointed a bit with DP8. I had no similar problems with 7.24.

I turned memory server back on. I opened a new DP project and added one instance of Kontakt. I tried to load LASS in to Kontakt. DP crashed when I tried to load the third instrument. I repeated the process, but this time I tried to load a Symphobia patch. DP crashed on the first instrument. ????????...

I was going to make a remark about falling out of my chair, but holy crap, where'd it go?

I would tell myself to

But....figure 81-18 shows Bounce to Disk under the Audio menu, when it is actually under the File Menu, which the text says.

In DP8 "Audio Options" is now located under "Play and Record," instead of "General."
Wonder how many more "little" changes like that there are?

Thanks David. I'll give that a try.

Hi Ironchef_marc Turning off memory server stopped K5 from crashing. But, I didn't get rid of the pops, clicks and dropouts. I'm back to using VEPRO with DP8 on my main MAC. I still use VEPRO to connect to my other MAC anyway. I'm actually thinking about going back to 7.24. It does feel sluggish to ...

Sorry...bad news for the moment. I enabled the VST version of Kontakt in DP's preferences, and rescanned the VST plug-ins. The VST version of K5 failed several times, and DP rejected it. I uninstalled all of Komplete 8, including Kontakt 5, and I reinstalled, making sure that I reinstalled VST versi...

Hi KG,

I'm far from a Kontakt expert (or any expert for that matter). I think that you can change the number of cores used in Kontakt's Preferences under "engine."

Someone suggested today that I try to use the VST version of Kontakt in DP8.

I'm working on that now.

Cheers,
Michael

I had problems immediately with DP8. You can read the background here. http://www.motunation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=51190 I've since updated my MOTU audio drivers, and installed OS 10.8. That didn't fix the problem. I spent half an hour on the phone with MOTU tech support, during which ti...

I installed DP on my Mac Pro... 12 core OS 10.6.8, and I'm rebuilding my template. I'm up to 15 instances of Kontakt and showing about 15% processing usage in the DP window. Showing very little usage spread across 12 cores. However, after I stop working for 15-20 minutes I get level spikes on the DP...
