Re: MOTU HARDWARE AVAILABILITY - MIA

Having used MOTU hardware since purchasing the 2408 with PCI‑324 and having six others, I'll hold out a bit longer! The requirement for ATMOS mixing keeps me hoping it will be sooner rather than later!

MOTU HARDWARE AVAILABILITY - MIA

Except for a smattering of M Series interfaces, there has been an extreme shortage of professional line devices from MOTU. I contacted MOTU regarding availability and received a polite non-answer about when to expect the MOTU 828es or MOTU 1248. Having realized the AVB line was released in 2014, wit...

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

Many thanks Dave. Your expertise in Motu products, willingness to go the extra mile and overall excitement for the products was another reason I have stuck with MOTU software and Hardware since my first Performer Sequencer in 1986. You have always been gracious with your solutions and never condesce...

Control Surface For Digital Performer Advice Required

All: Need advice on mixing control surfaces for Digital Performer. For years I have been mixing my DP projects down via my trusty Soundcraft Ghost/Toft ATB either to DAT, Masterlink or directly into DP. My automation steps have mostly been done via pointer tool and reshape mode with old school hands...

Re: Stereo mixing

My infatuation with a stereo mix has carried me from the first time I heard a stereo recording with a set of 1960 era Koss cans. Here in the Bay Area there used to be a radio show, "For headphones only" which featured "Ear Candy" mixes, as I used to call them. To this day, althou...

Re: So when are you going to upgrade to DP8??

My update will be ordered as soon as it's available. Sixty-four Bit. Use every drop of memory my Mac has installed. Nuff said.

Re: Installing Komplete 7 on Macbook Pro 5,5 early 2010

Using an external audio source (in my case a Traveler)and my MB Pro I found I/O issues with DP and my Komplete samples on the same drive. I ended up getting Seagate GoFlex 500Gb (no external power source) and it works like a champ. My two cents.

Re: So when are you going to upgrade to DP8??

Absolutely day one. My DP7.24 is steady however I really want to see if the 64BIT really is going to allow my 12 Gigs of RAM to burn a hole into the aluminum case. NO Windows for me though!

Re: Abbey Road Drummer Series (upgrade) from NI

Downloaded and installed three out the four. The grooves are excellent and different for each "Decade". Glad to see I can clean out the old version. Excellent upgrade (free) for this loyal DP and Native-Instruments supporter.

Missing Hammond XK3c MIDI profile -DP MTP/AV

All: After using NI B4 and Emu B3 for years I finally added a Hammond/Suzuki XK3 to my current rig. As I do both live and recorded sessions using my MTP/AV I am unable to add my new keys to my Audio/MIDI profile. I normally record our rehearsals with the audio pushed in DP6 and the keys always recor...

Re: NI Komplete (with Kontakt) being blown-out for $399

Economy or no economy this is a great deal. I bought this unit last year and have been extremely satisfied. I use pretty much every aspect of this library, retiring much of my "Rack" systems. These instruments smootly interface with DP6, bouncing to disk with speed and simplicity. For this...
