Re: DP12 release date?

Wildly overdue! I hope for a more modern but still simple-to-use interface--I also hope they fix the Steinberg incompatibility issues--I'd love to be able to use Halion and Groove Agent--

I'm sure there are other things we all are hoping for!

Re: Samples Don't Play Accurately On Fast Parts -DP and Musio Strings

I can verify that in my usage, the Musio issues are not from repeated notes, or the associated DP bug. My Musio woes are evident when playing back a series of different notes--and the rhythm is not correct. For example, last week I had a violin line of simple eighths and sixteenth notes--the playbac...

Samples Don't Play Accurately On Fast Parts -DP and Musio Strings

I have the same exact issue-Musio and DP don’t play well together. Response is laggy in real-time when playing/recording, and playback can be randomly inaccurate. My fix is to use MIDI time delay inserts on the MIDI track mixer insert to move all the data early a number of ticks-experiment to see th...

Hoping DP 12 will fix lots of our woes! Any word on when we should expect that?

DP Gripes, and things that have (almost) pushed me to Cubase

I’m sort of in the same boat, I’ve been using DP since 1990, and Performer before that! I’m currently on a Mac studio ultra M1, and I’ve just got loads of latency-I feel like DP is not utilizing all 20 cores on the Ultra very efficiently. I’m considering Cubase Pro 13 as well, but one thing stopping...

Re: DP11 on M1 — only utilizing using 4 cores?

Mike, I've been involved with MIDI and virtual instruments since their launch. I've very aware of the nomenclature and its various uses. My confusion centered around your use of the words "instance" and "virtual instruments". I always refer to an "instance" as one plug-...

Re: DP11 on M1 — only utilizing using 4 cores?

Mike, I’m confused by your terminology. You’re saying one instance can host many virtual instruments. That confuses me, I always considered an instance to be a single virtual instrument (plug-in) loaded into the session. In other words, say, one instance of Omnisphere would consist of one plug-in. Y...

Re: DP11 on M1 — only utilizing using 4 cores?

Thanks Mike, always good to hear your responses. I’m painfully aware that each VI will use one core-even when populated with 3-5 parts. I’m just confused why most DAWs don’t have a better usage plan in place. When orchestrating, I’ll I usually load one Musio instance with 4 string families, then I’l...

Re: DP11 on M1 — only utilizing using 4 cores?

Revisiting a nearly 2-year old thread--I'm on DP 11.3 and Ventura 13.6.3. I've got a Mac Studio Ultra M1 with 40 cores, 64GB RAM. The processor meter within Activity Monitor shows 20 meters. ( I assume those are the performance cores, the unseen 20 must be the efficiency cores? Not sure--need to che...

Re: MIDI beat mapping (again...) DP11

Why didn’t you just originally in the first app, just play the music to a click on the grid?

Or, is your music free-tempo and you’re trying to create a tempo map after the fact?

Right on-time will tell.

When I upgrade to Sonoma I’ll report my findings here. Might be a while!

Re: Steinberg PADSHOP and GROOVE AGENT crashes my DP 11

James, must be because you’re on Sonoma. Hmmm... could be because of that. I don't know if there's enough info to be sure of that. I can't remember if they worked on Ventura or not but maybe someone else could chime in that's on Ventura. James--it seems that the empirical evidence suggests that is ...
