Re: A couple positive things. MOTU webinar

I attended this morning's webinar, and it was very valuable. I learned a bunch of neat shortcuts based on DP's Temporary Group commands. I'll probably do them all.

Re: Appreciation

I'll add my voice. DP has driven me crazy for the past year, but since I finally got things sorted, I am again in love with my fave software, fave developer and fave knowledge forum.

Re: New user account fixes everything!!

Thanks, gents. Yes, the authorizations carry over, and a lot of my stuff is authorized via iLok, so there wasn't any weirdness there. I had to stuff some things in the Shared folder so they would appear in the new account. Did Magic Dave suggest it? I don't know, I must have missed it, somehow. Anyw...

Re: New user account fixes everything!!

dix, that's exactly right... found myself with enough time that I started thinking of ways I could make things better.

I know I probably should have thought of creating a new user account on my own, by mad props to MOTU for the quick response.

Re: New user account fixes everything!!

MLC, it was something corrupted in that old account that affected everything the machine did. Who knows, as you say? And who cares? DP is back, baby!

New user account fixes everything!!

My troubles with DP are well documented here... I was experiencing so many random freezes (endless beach ball, force quit, start over) I just couldn't use the program anymore. I tried everything... went back one version of OSX to High Sierra, updated back to Mojave, screwing around with plug in list...

Re: Problems setting up Zoom.US with DP

I use them both, and I can tell you for sure that Logic Pro does NOT sound better than DP. If one can be said to sound better, it's Digital Performer.

Re: DP 10 ??? Months In?

DP 10 and 10.01 are both virtually unusable on my rig. It freezes and crashes constantly. Still, after a long and personally involved consultation with a MOTU CSR. And I couldn't effectively go back to DP 9 without spending way too much time trying to remove all the tendrils of DP 10. So I'm working...

From the article:

"Revenues continued to grow for NI through 2019, so any snap analysis you may have read online that this is in response to financial trouble are likely misguided."

Re: New features for DP's next update?

I'd like to see them release a stable version of DP. That would be enough.

Re: I'm afraid of updating to DP10

You should be. It was a mess with 10.0, and 10.01 hasn't improved things much. I've actually come to believe that DP 10 has a conflict with DP9, and that the installer leaves bits and pieces of the other one when either of these versions is installed. I would advise you wait. Maybe forever. I would ...

One last thing (11 oz. DP Coffee Mugs)

There's a guy on Etsy who calls his little enterprise Glitch Mugs and prints coffee mugs with musical motifs (including screen shots of DAWs) on them. I had him do a custom one for me with a Digital Performer sequence on it that has a lot of personal value to me... and he made it available in his st...

Enough is enough.

I've had it with DP. I almost quit using it at the dame of DP10, but I couldn't bring myself to give up my experience with the program. But it drives me crazy. It crashes randomly, sometimes when doing something as simple as playing back a single MIDI piano track. It freezes and hangs, brings up the...

Re: EXPORT chunk to DP project?

It's a bit more screwing around, but could you just Load the chunk into the new sequence?
