Re: V-Racks question

Visible windows switch when you switch chunks. Invisible windows do not. This allows you to have e.g., sequence windows open from two different sequences so you can cut and paste between them.

Re: DP11 playlist for live gigs?

Yes and yes. Can DP11's playlist function handle 200 to 300 MIDI chunks Yes with one caveat. DP has to load any chunk instantiated plug-in before it can play the chunk. This causes a delay in triggering the chunk that is dependent on the amount of time it takes to load plugins. If possible load your...

Re: Digital Performer doesn’t play notes correctly

Yes I have this problem also. It’s seems to be related to the note duration butting up the end of one note to the beginning of another note. My workaround is to select all the notes and to change their durations to slightly less than what would cause them to butt up against the next note. I rarely s...

Re: Monitoring a muted MIDI track while in record mode.

Yup, have the same complaint. Sometimes I want to explore a different idea for the track, but don't want to create a new Take or erase/mute the old MIDI notes, etc. Would be easier to just mute the track and record enable.

Re: Not able to get VST effect to show up in DP

When you say activated, do you mean that the plug-in passes examination in the Settings/Audio Plug-ins window, but doesn't show up as an insert in tracks in the mix window? Does Melodyne's VST3 version, included with DP 11.22 show up?

Re: Load a VST3 Instrument ? Arturia Vocoder

1. Does this VST3 plug-in appear as a passed VST3 plug-in in Preferences (Settings)/Audio Plug-ins, but it is not available in track inserts? 2. Are other VST3 Plug-ins available in track inserts? Yes it shows as "passed" in Preferences, but isn't available as a track insert. 2. Are other...

Re: Clips in DP

Thanks Michael! This did it. The trick is to play enable the scene, record enable the clip, and then just press play (not record). The clip will go into record mode and nothing will get recorded into the track. On page 300, step 5, the manual says "start recording". So I did lol.

Re: Clips in DP

I started the process by hitting record on an empty Clip slot which in my settings starts the transport running, and records into that clip slot while other clips are playing. It doesn't create anything in the Tracks/Sequence timelines here doing it that way, Interesting. Just to confirm, you are s...

Clips in DP

Who out there in the MOTU DP universe is using Clips primarily or extensively? I'm just starting a large project (24 chunks scoring each chunk for 8 live instruments) and decided to give Clips a try rather than Ableton. After about a month of frustration and many tickets/calls with MOTU support, I'v...

Re: Slow

Yes, same problem here. It's so bad (2-3 second with just a couple of instruments on an M1 Max 64G Mac Book Pro) that I've taken to always running in Live Performance mode, which of course really increases the processor hit (see post "DP Memory Issue in the "Usage, Techniques, Tips & O...

Re: DP Memory Issue, Recent RAM usage Ballooning.

Yes same here with Opus and NI Komplete 14. Removed Altiverb, which is a memory hog under Rosetta, and subbed Proverb, which helped. Also should note related to the "Slow" post on the troubleshooting forum, I'm always running in Live Performance mode because the delay every time I stop, re...
