Mach Five 3 seems to automatically mount UFS files in C:\Program Files\UVISoundBanks. Electric Keys likes to find its UFS files in C:\Program Files\MOTU\ElectricKeys\Sounds. I tried creating Windows "shortcuts" in the Mach Five directory pointing to the original installation of Electric Ke...

I guess the trick there is to loop the sequence correctly if it comes up as part of a chunk in a song and repeats. I basically need the sequence to START by playing measures 1 to 10 but when it loops back, it needs to loop to bar 2 and play bars 2 to 10 from then on out ... Maybe that is possible wi...

Ok - so an update. This works: if I create an audio track and wire the Motif signal directly to it, the audio lags while monitoring but once recorded, plays back perfectly in time. But the following doesn't work .... for some context: let's say I just spent 4 hours working on a new idea and I'd like...

@amplidood that's funny, "Nudge" is on 309 in my manual. Just got the software 2 weeks ago so I must have an extra page in there somewhere. Great feedback everyone. Thanks. I didn't realize that audio could be treated so similarly to MIDI. My grid was setup so large that I just thought I c...

In my DP7 book, 535 covers REPEAT, MERGE ...

Ah, maybe you mean 537 in this version ... SHIFT.

That works - no way to do this in a scrubby, dragging, trial and error sort of way?

I have my recording buffer set to 512 and that causes just a bit of recording delay.

After recording a vocalist, I'd like to shift that audio back just a bit. How would I do that? If possible, I'd prefer not to trim anything - I just want to move it back a shade.

Anyone have any suggestions to run DP7 with BPM and GTR3? BPM is a beast and while it works great with my FF800 buffer setting at 512, I can't actually play my guitar through the Waves GTR3 insert since the delay is so huge. Is this a common problem that everyone deals with? Do I just try to find a ...

I have recorded a MIDI take on track 1 and I'd like to save a scratch audio track of the sequence. I direct the audio from the external keyboards to channels 3 and 4 and setup audio track 2 to record from channels 3 and 4. All is fine to this point. I don't actually want to hear the audio track whil...

@Dwetmaster ... I am probably doing something wrong but it doesn't seem to pick up the ENTER key as I drag the TEMPO numbers up or down. @Dan ... the MIDI control worked - but it is sticky. IE: if I user the mod wheel while recording, the tempo changes! :( I did notice that I can alternate between a...

Word! Thanks AGAIN for more good advice. > That's why I have no desire to see the "absolute grids" of other DAWs in DP. You can do just about anything in it, as it is. Just $0.02 - semantics aside, it sounds like DP already approximates the "absolute grid" (as this thread has nam...

Great feedback - thanks everyone. @shooshie: You can make as many copies of a sequence as you wish The #1 reason I am even using DP is for the chunking and arranging it provides. In the panacea of current DAWs - DP is unique with this feature. I do NOT want identical copies of sequences laying aroun...

I recorded something in MIDI and I'd like to slow it down and "find" the magic tempo but when I actually select and drag up or down on the tempo box, I don't hear anything until I'm done and hit the ENTER button. Unfortunately, I don't know what tempo I want so I find myself constantly cli...

So I've recorded MIDI for my intro, verse, chorus and the hook into a different sequence for each. Now, I'd like to record some vocals - but I don't want to record the vocals on the existing sequences since the sequences will be reused for every verse, chorus, etc. How do I record the vocals? I trie...

That sounds weird. I've got no problem with the whole 'relative' thing - but I held a note for too long - I want to shorten it to end on the downbeat ... and I can't do that unless I turn off the grid? I need the note to end on the next beat - or fraction of the beat. My timing was off, why would I ...
