Re: BFD3 (Stereo) won't show up

What nightmare trying to install BFD3 . Took a while to figure out the serial problem and then was able to install . That installers app is a joke . Couldn't open the installer update for the longest time I have the content on my sample HD but don't see any AU or VSTs in my plugin folders and nothin...

Re: DP11.1 W10 Offline Bounces Slower w/plugin windows open

Usually never does that with large projects . Just installed 11.11 update recently this is strange behavior . Mac Os 10.14.6 Mac pro 5.1 12...

Re: Finally figuring out the UAD Spark thing

I'm still on om MacPro 5.1 and have a ton of UAD plugins on my octo card that I use, so when I move onto a new computer I will probably look into an OWC TB3 to PCIe card expansion box which is around $250 .

DAW Control app and DP10.13 ?

Anyone using the DAW Control app successfully with DP10.13 ? I just tried using this again and it doesn't seem to connect . I did use it a couple years ago with DP9 and it was working fine then and maybe in DP10 as well I don't remember . It does show up in AMS network and DP control surface setup T...

Re: 828mk2 - iMac hookup

Just got a 2020 MBPro 6 core that shipped with Catalina 1015.6. I haven't been able to get Audio MIDI Setup to recognize my legacy interfaces 896HD or 828mk2. Both are FW400. I have all the correct adapters including Apple TB3-TB2 , Apple TB2 to FW800 and a FW800 to 400 adapter. They still don't sho...

Re: MIDI timing issues in DP & maybe osx in general

Here’s something I recently learned that may or may not help: any plug ins (like mastering limiters, etc) on a master fader are not latency compensated and this will wreak havoc with timing when trying to record MIDI late in a project or if you like to work with a limiter etc on a master fader. A w...

Re: What is making my DP 9.52 so (swearword) slow ?

What is your latency set to? I find with larger projects, I start getting spinning-ball-lags until I raise the latency. Weirdly enough, it isn't consistent. Some days I can work on large projects @ 256. Other days I have to go to 512 or 1024 on the same project. It's like what mood is my Mac in tha...

Re: THANK YOU, "MAGIC DAVE" ROBERTS!!!!!

Yes Thank you Dave ! You were always helpful with any problems or questions that arose. I will miss your visits to Berklee College as will the students . I always would learn some new trick with your visits there when you would demo DP.

Re: Spitfire Brass vs Berlin Brass

I like the Spitfire Brass . I also have the Spitfire WWds and symphonic and Chamber strings and It does blend well with those from the same hall. And yes using more of the close mics and eq helps for clarity . I also got a bunch of their other libs bernard herman hans perc. etc. and have really gott...

Re: Anyone Use the Mackie MCU Pro?

Another old thread, but, I just can't seem to find this anywhere. Thank you, Dwetmaster, regarding the option+rec combo. I had a work around, but, that will certainly be a timesaver. What I'm trying to find out is if there is a combination or setting to control channel send pans. If I hit the Send ...

Re: Wanting a solid control surface for DP 9.5

I'm still using my Mackie MCU pro and expander with DP 9.5 . It has a Dp template overlay , 16 faders and a master fader, so it does everything for my needs when mixing and tracking .

Re: DrumCore 4 and DP 9?

Yes I am a bit disappointed , I have found them more concerned with getting their store implemented into the app so you can can do in app purchases for more loops than working out any bugs out. It did take a while to get a response from tech support. I had much better luck with DC3 working properly ...
