Fixing phase issues in DP

Hi, I'm wondering if any of you have any tips regarding phase issues and how to fix them in DP. I'm working on a traditional Irish folk tune employing pipes, acoustic guitar, flute, violin, and various percussion. The main featured percussive instrument is the Bodhran It was recorded in stereo with ...

Re: Webinar videos

I'm hoping they get edited soon as well. I live on the east coast and most of the time it's very hard for me to take a 1.5 - 2 hour break in the middle of my work day.

Most of the time I feel lucky when I'm able to grab lunch LOL.

Re: Free Mackie board

A common issue on these is for the faders to stop working in banks of 8. I've never met one that couldn't be fixed by doing the following: Take it apart to the point of using a roto-pod (in the user manual), disconnect the ribbon cables and reconnect three times to burnish the connectors. Do each o...

Re: Mixing/Mastering for MP3's

Thank you Mike and Doug! My ears are usually shot by the time I get to the mp3 stage from listening to the same piece of music over and over while editing and mixing LOL... and I don't usually sell mp3's. They are just quick and dirty necessities that I e-mail to clients before I send them the full ...

Re: Mixing/Mastering for MP3's

Apple Main Stage? Opinions?

Hi, i was wondering if it's worth buying Apple's Main Stage software. Do you get full versions of Logic's instruments such as Camel with it?

I'm mainly interested in it for the sound library and don't know anything about it. Thanks, Fred

Re: Favorite/underrated MOTU Plugs

I love the MW Limiter and the MW EQ, use them all the time. I will have to try the chorus when I get back to mixing stuff. Thanks, Fred

Re: MOTU DP 10 Webinars

They will definitely be on youtube once they are edited. Matt and MOTU said so repeatedly at both webinars I've attended so far.

I'm very happy to see MOTU doing this :)

Re: MOTU DP 10 Webinars

I started to get invites just after I signed up for Zoom.... so it's not really an exclusive club although I recognized engineers and other users from my time in NYC. Definitely worth checking out! I'm looking forward to the edited webinars being on youtube. The MOTU staff are very helpful and frien...

Copy Pitch?

They seem to have changed the copy pitch command in DP10 from earlier versions of DP.... I did a search of the manual but can't seem to get it to work :( It used to be a fairly simple process.... copying the pitch from a mono audio track to a MIDI track.... not sure what I'm doing wrong. Just trying...

Re: covid-19 and work

My gigs have all been cancelled and my studio clients are all hunkered down in their homes for now.

It looks like my regular summer gigs might be off the table for 2020 as well..... things are looking pretty lean and scary right now :(
