Re: Nothing going into Master Fader. - RESOLVED

Point of trivia that may or may not be helpful: if you have more than one Master Fader track, the one that appears leftmost in the Mixer takes priority. This can be helpful in situations where you my have high latency plugins on the Master Fader, but want lower latency for tracking. Create another ...

Re: Cool YouTube Video... using Dynamic EQ and Sidechain to make "space" for vocal

Thanks so much FMiguelez.. I really appreciate your kind help According to my notes, it works nicely. It does take a little time to setup and figure out at first, but it's a nice worth little trick. They also read that I got quite side-tacked by playing with a linear phase EQ and polarity-inverted t...

Re: Cool YouTube Video... using Dynamic EQ and Sidechain to make "space" for vocal

I spoke too early….my apologies…. it’s not ‘perfectly clear’ to me at all… actually it’s still quite a mindbender FMiguelez’s point about a sort of reverse ducking is a challenge to me. … trying to have the Main Vocal rise together with the Music ….….or when the music is soft the vocal reduces level...

Re: Cool YouTube Video... using Dynamic EQ and Sidechain to make "space" for vocal

That's a great idea, and I was trying to find a setting that would do that. I would increase the release time, but that only delayed the moment that it would return to zero... not the rate at which it did. After a while of trying to do that with release time, it becomes apparent that there's also t...

Re: Connecting Avid S3 via AVB to MOTU 16A

Just to follow up.... it seems we need to use an AVB switcher ... pretty sure now that it's not possible with a direct connection MOTU Discovery looks for 'MOTU AVB devices'... which the S3 is not... and Avid states that an AVB switch is required So there it is... I will update if/when we make progr...

Re: I Need To Rescan the AU VIs and Plug-ins

There is an old issue with plug-ins that affected a MacOS and it involved having an iPhone. Apple resolved it quickly but it affected a few people around here. Since I was one of those who wasn’t affected, I don’t remember any of the details nor even how to search for those old threads but somebody...

Re: DP slow to load due to VST window

Hi Michael Yes.... just to be clear I don't know that DP is actually re-scanning the VST and VST3 folders after bootup.... it's just that that is what it feels like because of the very long time it takes to complete .... I really have no idea what DP is actually doing for all that time Also the VST3...

Re: DP slow to load due to VST window

Hi I have also been very frustrated with the first DP start after computer bootup…. VST and VST3 loads drag on and on ….At one stage it was up to almost 10 minutes to get DP started!!… However, as others mentioned, the problem effectively disappears when starting DP after that It felt like all the V...

Re: Play Cursor back to the original position ?

Hi Frank Yes you’re right. Responders to this post have explained, essentially, that DP has alternative method(s) for getting back to the last wiper start position…using Memory Cycle…. But that does not work exactly in the way he hopes for…..He says that LP’s functionality is what he is hoping DP ca...
