Re: DP 9.1 is here

I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this on the previous pages but I noticed that the movie audio outputs can now handle multiple tracks and assign them to their own outputs. It certainly helps my work flow which is usually working with quicktime movies that have separate audio files embedded for d...

Re: MachFive 3.2 Released - Download yours now!!

This update also fixed a surround output issue. Before I wasn't able to get surround output from M5 in any sample rate other that 44.1. It was folding it down to a stereo output.

I haven't tried rates above 48k but it's now working very well and outputting properly with a 48k session.

Thanks MOTU!

Re: Loss of audio with QT7 after upgrading to Lion

I'm using QT7.6.6

Loss of audio with QT7 after upgrading to Lion

I recently upgraded my rig to Lion (10.7.4) from Snow Leopard. After doing so I found that audio doesn't play from my movie window in DP (7.24) or from the quicktime player. I have the System Preferences Sound output set to my 424 (into a 2408). If I switch the Sound output to internal speakers I ca...

Re: The Digital Performer Tips Sheet

I don't think this was covered anywhere else on Motunation but wanted to share a pattern click tip. If you are working in 7/8 and want to have a 2,2,3 click (quarter, quarter, dotted quarter) try typing in 2 2 3 in the the pattern click window and do not include the /8 at the end. For some reason wh...

Re: Ivory II Piano Update coming in May 2010

Synthogy responded. They said they wouldn't send a new DVD but gave me a link to download the faulty bundle (#11 from the 3rd disc). Synthogy wanted to know the make of my DVDrom drive and OS so maybe there's a conflict with that. They also wanted me to return my faulty discs. I won't do that unless...

Re: Ivory II Piano Update coming in May 2010

I received a copy of this on Friday but could never get the Bosendorfer to install. It kept crashing. I'm installing onto a PC to run via Vienna Ensemble. I got 2 copies for two different machines and they both would fail on the 3rd DVD (installing the Bosendorfer). I tried 3 times on each machine a...

Re: Euphonix MC Mix processor hog?

Found some earlier posts. Thanks James!

Doesn't look too promising. I've emailed Euphonix tech if I learn anything new I'll post it.

Euphonix MC Mix processor hog?

Excuse me if this has been covered, I couldn't find any similar posts. I got a Euphonix MC Mix to do simple mixing with and was surprised after installing it that it took big bites out of the computer's processing. I have to keep the buffer settings low (128) so that my PC Kontakts and MIDI over lan...

Re: DP User Wins Oscar

Thanks guys! :) DP is the "axe" for the writing and sound design stages but usually mixing in pro tools when we have bigger recording dates that go outside our current studio. As budgets for scores have been getting tighter we're figuring out more creative means to figure out our sonic pal...

I'm shyly guessing it's me (Buck Sanders)?. I'm a die hard DP guy. As is Marco. We share the same rig actually! Sort of like tag team wrestling. This board is a daily read for me and has solved many problems and given tons of great tips. It's saved our ass many times. We did the whole Hurt Locker sc...

Re: Kontakt 3.5 is Out!

Would love to play with it. Has anyone else had the endless update loop from the Service Center? I open service center and it says it's updating itself (which isn't uncommon), then it relaunches and says it needs to update again, relaunches, updates... endlessly. I see other people have the same pro...

Re: Volta cables

Thanks Phil. Great ideas. I wish I was that crafty. I believe I'll have to go with the custom cable option but love the breakout box idea. You should build and sell these things. I can't believe MOTU didn't jump on the chance to make some custom cables or join up with Mogami. I would imagine most pe...

Volta cables

I got Volta yesterday but am not sure about the cabling that I need to ensure I don't fry anything. I'm using an 896HD. For the analog outputs it says to use XLR to TS (pin2=tip, pin 1=sleeve, pin3=sleeve) and for an extra set of outputs I can use the headphone outputs by connecting a TRS to dual TS...

Re: Mac OS10.5.6: Anyone else updated yet?

Did the combo update last night on my MacBook Pro and it all seems to be running very smooth. DP6.01 with Kontakt 3 and some Audio Ease plugins.
