Group Activate Plugins?

You know how you can change the colors of all selected V-Racks - select tracks, hold "t" and pick a color? Can we do the same for activating selected V-Racks? I don't imagine so, but what do I know. I like to save DP projects with all plugins in the V-Racks turned off and then only open th...

Re: holding "t" for temporarily group - broken?

The Manual says I ought to be able to do this. Can someone verify that it is or isn't working as expected?

holding "t" for temporarily group - broken?

I'm trying to color code orchestra tracks. I used to be able to:

Highlight/select tracks in Tracks window, hold "t" while picking a color and all the selected tracks will change to that color.

It's not working - Has anyone had this problem and fixed it?

Re: DP 11.3 Crashes while running, but keeps running.

Michael -
I KNEW I'd screw up what to include and what not to include. I'm sorta lousy when it comes to code.

I just had a very good experience with Motu tech support on another issue. I'll ask them about this and then post their answer.

DP 11.3 Crashes while running, but keeps running.

I'm working in DP11.3/Sonoma/MacStudioM1Ultra, Antelope Audio Zen Go, and get a crash message. When I click "OK" or "Reopen", DP just keeps running. Nothing quits or crashes, per se, but it seems to come at random. Anybody get this? I'm running Vienna Ensemble Pro 7.3 with lots o...

Re: Sonoma 14.3 dropped!

My Bluetooth was unusable 14.2 (or whatever it was before 14.3) but I updated to 14.3 and now Bluetooth works well. Either they fixed it or I accidentally am doing it right! :-)

Re: Sonoma 14.3 dropped!

Did 14.3 fix Bluetooth? Since Sonoma my MacStudio hasn't been able to connect with my iPad (16.6).

Re: Advice - WD Elements vs WD My Book

I think where I'm landing with this is to buy the least expensive reliable 16tb backup system I can, hopefully spending less than $300. When I can afford a fast and big NAS RAID 1. I'm much more interested in data protection than restore speed. I suppose I may feel different if I have a catastrophic...

Advice - WD Elements vs WD My Book

I'm revamping my backup scenario. I think I'll get a 16TB or so external drive connected to our Comcast modem/router. All our computers, phones, and tablets are Macintosh, and soon to all be Silicon. (BTW, I will have all my DP project and sample drives backed up to 1:1 HD mirrors as well, and our s...

Re: Second Mouse as a MIDI Controller?

Markus' breath controller might do the trick. I had one that just had breath as a controller, but this also has bite and head position. Thanks Markus, I'll look into it.

Second Mouse as a MIDI Controller?

Hello Friends! I want to turn a second mouse into a MIDI controller. Does anyone know how to do this, probably with some kind of “bridge” software that converts on the fly in real time? I’ve used TouchOSC on an iPad, played around with touchpads, but they’re not enough - here’s why: I use Vienna Sym...

Re: Edit CC Data of Several Tracks in Sequence Window - Simultaneously - SOLVED

I figured it out!

1 - select tracks you want to edit together - make sure they show an automation line.
2 - hold T, and hold R (reshape)
3 - do a snoopy dance.

Re: Edit CC Data of Several Tracks in Sequence Window - Simultaneously - SOLVED

I'm back from a few years of working outside of my beloved DP and I can't recall a certain trick I've used before. I want to simultaneously edit cc data on several adjacent tracks in the Sequence Editor. Isn't there a way to do this more easily than creating 4 automation points each time on each tra...
