Simple polyrhythm in DP (7.24)

Hi folks, trying to do something that I assumed was going to be very simple but apparently isn't; I have a whole DP sequence in 4/4 and I am trying to sequence a pattern in 3/4 over it, inside the drum editor window, but I just can't seem to make it work - is it even possible to do so in DP? I tried...

Multi-channel VST support in DP8?

Hi everybody, I'm still using DP 7.24, so I'm hoping someone can tell me if DP8 supports multi-channel VSTs, or more specifically, if it's possible to have a multiple-channel bus for VST plug-in(s) to be inserted onto (which is where Cubase fails, for example, as it only provide max 6 channels to co...

Re: Overdubbing a MIDI track at 2 different tempos

Hi Stephen, Thanks for your reply! Sounds like what I was looking for... I forgot to mention one thing; I'm pretty far advanced in the composition/arrangement of the song and all the audio tracks are also running at 60 BPM, so I would need to lock the audio too, right? Or else the audio tracks won't...

Re: Overdubbing a MIDI track at 2 different tempos

Yes, I've done that before and it worked, but in this case I would like to be able to modify the 30BPM version before recording it into an audio track, so I would actually need to be able to hear what it sounds like when played alongside the 60BPM version, and the rest of the song for that matter, i...

Overdubbing a MIDI track at 2 different tempos

Hi, I'm currently working on a song running at 60BPM, and there is a particular MIDI sequence that I would like to change from 60BPM to 30 BPM without having to change the tempo of the whole song, and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do this. If I change the tempo of the whole song to reco...

Re: DP 7.23 freezing - help needed!

have you tried upgrading to 7.24? Yes I have, and it didn't help. I had also tried a different Firewire cable and the same issue kept happening, so I believe it's safe to say that the problem is the Firewire port on my Macbook, as everything has been running fine ever since I've started running the...

Re: DP 7.23 freezing - help needed!

- make sure you have the latest MOTU drivers. Perhaps reinstall the latest ones? I've done that. - check buffer/host/etc. settings? What exactly should I look for? I'm not sure I understand how this would affect my setup. I mean, I've had the same setup for a year and never had any issues until 3 we...

Re: DP 7.23 freezing - help needed!

OK, so it happened a bit differently this time: I had DP 7 open and was watching a clip online and suddenly the sound cut off, I then checked DP7's hardware setup and it was still recognizing the Audio Express, so I played an LP through my mixer going into the Audio Express and I was getting a signa...

Re: DP 7.23 freezing - help needed!

Thanks for the suggestion Bad Andy, but unfortunately I've already tried that and it runs fine...seems to be something between the Sound card and Digital Performer...I even tried another Firewire cable and experienced the same problem...

This is weird!

Re: DP 7.23 freezing - help needed!

OK, so I just ran the Rember test and it didn't find anything wrong with my Mac's RAM, so we're back to square one.

Also ran the Memtest and everything is fine. So I guess this ain't a RAM problem...

Anyone else have any idea as to what might be happening with my set up?

Re: DP 7.23 freezing - help needed!

Thanks for your reply! I will try your recommendation.

I am using the Firewire plugs 6 pin to 9 pin.

By the way, I just updated to DP 7.24.

DP 7.23 freezing - help needed!

Hi, I've been experiencing issues with DP 7.23 for a few weeks now and I'm at a loss as to what to do next in order to solve it. I got in touch with the folks at MOTU and at first we thought the problem was that my old 828 was giving in, so I ended up buying a MOTU Audio Express but I'm still having...

Re: MOTU 828 MKI cutting out

Update:

I was just listening to an LP through DP7 while on the internet and the sound just cut out, so I guess my theory about this bug being related to videos is not the issue.

MOTU 828 MKI cutting out

Hi, I've recently started experiencing some problems with sound cutting out when using my computer. I've had this Macbook for a little over a year now and everything was fine until about a week ago. My computer is currently running on Mac OS X 10.6.8. I haven't been working on music recently so I ca...
