Re: Undo history as work log ?

You might check out the “ProjectTime” plugin from HOFA. There’s a freeware as well as a paid version; essentially, you just plop it into a plugin slot, and it keeps a running tally that starts and stops automatically when you open/close your project. I tried the free one several years ago… it didn’t...

Re: DP 10.13 and Big Sur

An update! Kontakt and MacOS have had some minor updates since I last posted; both seem to be working normally now. No more weird latency issues when playing.

Re: MOTU's IOS app: Please bring it back!

One of my friends had a Bluetooth trackball controller he liked, and he would carry it about the studio. He could do everything he needed to remotely, and lightning-quick, through a combination of DP commands and hotkeys... I simply carry my Bluetooth keyboard with me and plop it on a music stand wh...

Re: DP 10.13 and Big Sur

Everything seems to be running fine here, for the most part… opened some files, recorded a little live audio. MOTU plugs seem normal. I tested out my third-party plugins: primarily a simple Izotope suite and Kontakt 6 — to my surprise, they seemed to work fine. Nothing seems terribly amiss except fo...

Re: FINALLY!! Catalina Drivers for Hybrid Interfaces

I see your sig says 10.14.3. Asking for a friend - are these downwardly compatible, or are they Catalina only? ...Just hadn't updated my sig yet, as I was waiting for these drivers before I could move to Catalina. MOTU still has drivers for pre-Catalina machines up, so I'm not really sure about the...

Re: Repeatable screen redraw bug - DP 10

Not just you... I'm experiencing similar effects randomly. Even in the tracks window, occasionally there'll be a little displacement in parts of the bar lines so certain lanes may look like they are jostled a few pixels left or right. :?

Re: DP10 Sequence Editor bugs?

I'm having the same sort of issue with the grid in the sequence editor: somehow the default is always on "Auto" rather than "Fixed" as it was before, plus it's always set to some odd note length... usually a dotted quarter note. :?: :?: :?: ...And I absolutely despise the "e...

Re: DP10 - Multiple issues

Hmmm... the issue I'm currently having is that the solo/play-enable buttons are not agreeing between the tracks window and mixing board, and I'm unable to get some of the play-enable buttons on the tracks window to disable at all.

Re: DP10 available on the MOTU site NOW....

Everything seems copacetic here... no rude surprises. A teeny bit disappointed there were no wacky new themes, but I'm super-happy about a scalable interface... I'd have paid the upgrade fee for that alone. The minuscule print in the notes window was giving me squint wrinkles. Excited to try the VCA...

Insert Settings Sorting Order?

I've noticed that editing the names of my saved insert settings sometimes gives unexpected results in terms of the order in which they're sorted and thus appear in the drop-down selection menu. They don't always seem to adhere to alphabetical order, nor are they consistently subject to Mac sorting p...

Early Adopter - Now Running High Sierra

I spent some time last night and this morning making the transition to OS 10.13, which included updating my external drives to the new file system, APFS. Mostly painless, with a few caveats: • I have indeed been experiencing the DP authorization issue mentioned here ; DP seemed to run normally once ...

Re: Conductor track missing from chunk!

Hmmm... well, in DP 9 the tracks window has a search field, which can allow hiding of tracks to occur if something is typed into it; you can also hit command-option-E (on a Mac) to show a list of which tracks you wish to make visible/invisible. You could always do that with the mixing board, but the...

Mic Suddenly Audible through Monitors

A couple of times in the last few days, I’ve been partway through a recording session when I've become aware that my microphone feed is suddenly audible through my monitors. This is not happening apropos of anything obvious, and it's after a good 30-90 minutes of working normally, with the live mic ...
