Re: plugin parameter automation question

OP did try most of them and finally figured it out!

The most confounding thing being how the dots get placed when clicking to start the shape.

I'm much appreciative for all the responses.

Many thanks, friends!

Re: plugin parameter automation question

Is there a way to get automation to ONLY effect the plugin parameters and NOT the fader level as well?

Re: plugin parameter automation question

Yeah, maybe.

I've even tried using 'snapshots' but that still brings up the pencil tool???

I don't understand why but it does.

I'm really having a lot of second thoughts regarding Motu's workflow, etc.

This shouldn't be so kludgey.

plugin parameter automation question

(this was sent to the motu-mac email list too... what can i say, i'm desperate!) ;-) Running into a strange issue that is hard to google... I'm trying to automate a plugin using the 'insert' mode in the sequence editor. What I'd like to do is for the track I'm effecting to simply play as normal for,...

Re: Install demo version of DP9 and still use paid-for DP8?

Thanks, Mike.

Here is my question:

Is it possible to use DP9 (in demo mode) with an operating, fully paid-for version of DP 8.07 on the same (bootable) partition?

Install demo version of DP9 and still use paid-for DP8?

I'm having bad issues with a brand new install of DP 8.07 and High Sierra. I'd like to see if those issues go away if I use DP 9 but it doesn't seem like I can use DP 9 (even in a demo version) while a paid-for version of DP 8 is installed? My evidence for this is that I've downloaded DP 9 from Motu...

new install of 8.07 on High Sierra: verify again and again?

I've had to do a new install after HD disaster. This required an "upgrade" to High Sierra. Whenever I want to use DP I'm having to fill out the verification info... again. I click the DP icon, the "Digital Performer Verification" window opens, I fill out the pertinent info (again...

8.07: Possible 'Analyze Soundbite Tempo' bug?

So I'm following along with this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lw4QaeXkJAU ...and at about 3:04 or so you'll see him double-click the kick track and bring up the Waveform Editor. Now previously in the video, he has already done a "Find Beats in Selection" while in the Waveform edi...

Re: 8.07: Where is auto pan?

Hmmm...no sonic modulator either.

If I type "auto pan" in the search bar nothing is returned as well.

Have I somehow messed something up during the install of DP?

I'd really like to figure this out!

Thanks.

Re: 8.07: Where is auto pan?

Thanks for the replies! I still don't see it, however. It's indeed a mono track being output to a stereo track. What am I missing? Also, am I crazy to think that, at least giving the grayed-out choice would be better than not showing it at all? How would one know what they're missing?? Nevertheless,...

8.07: Where is auto pan?

Back in the day (like the os9/3.11 days) I used to use a plug called 'autopan'. It seems to not be part of the default plug-ins now. Why is this?

Any recommendations for something similar?

Thanks.

THANK YOU! Very helpful tip.
Where is the green button once in full screen mode? It does NOT exist.

8.07 autosave not saving plugin settings?

So I had some wicked eqs going and encountered a crash. Upon reopening dp, it looks like I not only lost many of the eq settings, I also lost markers too. And that was a good 25 minutes back. I have autosave set to save every 5 minutes in my preferences. Couldn't I expect my crash to relegate me to ...

Why are my imports so slow all of a sudden (8.07)?

I installed an SSD a good year ago. Things seemed fast for a while. I'm feeling like the import process is gradually getting slower and now it's obvious...they are indeed. Am I doing something strange? I want to import audio so I choose "import audio" from a right-click in bottom part of t...

Re: Can't get out of full screen mode

Was this ever fixed?

I'm using 8.07 and I seem to be locked into 'full screen' whether I wanna be or not.

What am I missing?

Thanks.
