Re: Changing Velocity with by holding down "V" and dragging mouse!

I think this is a fairly recent update to “tools”. I recall reading about it somewhere like release notes.

Re: Buying DP now or wait?

Stationary is a workaround for templates. It’s no surprise that a few of the editors are not included. But the rest of it is a mystery. It can’t be much of a help to MOTU to be confusing new customers with poor documentation,

Perhaps the entire project is outsourced.

It's not anywhere near as bad as other light versions. For one thing there aren't track-count limits IIRC.
There are limits to track counts. If there weren’t it would be a lot more useful.

Re: Run a legacy DP setup in a Macbok M3 virtual machine

Similar thoughts and questions here, and I’ll be interested in any advice you get. I have some old apps I want to keep using, and my old Macs are likely to die a lot sooner than yours. You probably have several years of life left in a 2018 MBP.

Re: The Future of Digital Performer

Jim, the way to do what you want has been explained several times now. Hard to believe you have actually read the replies and then done what they say. There’s no point in typing out the instructions again. You can go back and read what was already posted, and do that. Otherwise, there’s no point in ...

Re: Creating patchlists for newer or unsupported synthesizers

There used to be sharing sites for midnam files but they seem to be disappearing. One of them, Digicake, suggests getting a demo copy of DP and extracting them from there.

Re: The Longest, Most Inconsistently-Off-Topic Thread in History

From the Guardian review

“There are a couple of thuddingly off-key music choices that jolt us out of the story“.

Can we assume you had nothing to do with the music?

Re: VST2 & VST3

Each time, I make any change in the Primary all the other VST's are unavailable. Stop changing the Primary. Just enable all the plugins you have, and leave the Primary preference alone. It doesn’t matter what you set it to until you install a new plugin. Then you’ll have to go back to preferences a...

You can even us different versions of the same plugin in one sequence. I haven’t done it but I expect you could even use multiple versions of the same plug-in in the same channel.

Re: The Future of Digital Performer

Jim, try this in the Audio Plug-ins Preferences panel: - choose whatever you want as the “Primary External Plug-in Format” - select all the plug-ins that appear in the panel. You might be told you have to revalidate some or all of them. Do that. Do you now find that all of your plugins of all format...

Re: audio inputs gone... RESOLVED

I don’t understand why so many people get caught by this. Every time I start an audio app for the first time, a dialog comes up asking if the app can access the microphone. It’s difficult to miss.
