Re: NAMM NEWS - DP 10 - It's Here!

@ 1:00 he said, "We have the MOTU Instrument Soundbank which we're including with DP10 as an upgrade, which is basically the entire UVI and parts of the Mach Five 3 library....". He clearly misspoke. The UVI World Suite alone is 30GB. Maybe a NAMM goer can get clarification. I took it to ...

Re: NAMM NEWS - DP 10 - It's Here!

And I did hear Brendan says "all of Mach Five's sounds are included." I wonder of the Notation window is still available and how Quickscribe has been improved. All great stuff. :unicorn: the Mach Five quip, yeah that's got me beyond curious, The actual quote is: "... the entire UVI, ...

Re: NAMM NEWS - DP 10 - It's Here!

So, does this make DP one of the only DAWs that has a Clip Laucher (other than Live and Bitwig)? Not up on the latest versions of Logic and Cubase-- do they have Clips windows? Pretty sure only Live and Bitwig. This could put DP ahead of the game somewhat in this area for now, esp if their version o...

Re: NAMM NEWS - DP 10 - It's Here!

Brilliant! Virtually my entire wish list, except MPE support! Of course, it remains to be seen how it all works. . I’m ready. When is it available?

Re: Put down that gun, Toontrack!

The main thing holding me back w/ SD2->SD3 is I don't have 230GB of free disk space right now. So that means the cost of the upgrade + another hard drive -- which I will need eventually, but a big expense crunch all at once. Yeah... but the upgrade pricing has passed. If you want SD3 now, it's goin...

Re: Put down that gun, Toontrack!

P.S. Still staring down the barrel of RealiDrums (which obviously isn't in the same league as SD3), but seems like a really easy and flexible interface.

This video makes a good case for RealiDrums as a lite-n-easy sidekick for SD3:

Re: Plug-in Sales and Special Deals Sticky Topic

HOT TIP, FYI... Waves (who have a lot of their plugins on sale right now) are offering an ADDITIONAL half off with the code HALFOFF. For example, I just picked up their brand new Flow Motion FM Synth, which was going for $49 (half off the usual $99), and the code allowed me to halve it again, taking...

Re: Put down that gun, Toontrack!

There is also RealiDrums on sale for $99. Never tried the product myself, but seems a promising bang for buck and easy UI. Anyone tried this one?

Re: Put down that gun, Toontrack!

In facing down the same gunman. Too many competing expenses lately, plus precious little disk space resources, may exile me to permanent SD2 Island. In other news, NI is offering the complete suite of Abbey Road drums (Vintage, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, Modern) for $199 smackers. I already have it all as ...

MOTU Digital Performer – the Guitarist’s DAW?

Nice article on DP’s features for guitarists by Craig Anderton for Sweetwater. https://www.sweetwater.com/insync/motu-digital-performer-guitarists-daw/ I am ashamed to admit I have hardly ever tried any of these plugins! Which seems just plain crazy! If you’re like me, maybe this will inspire you to...

Re: How To Use IDAM With Digital Performer - Use iPad As Syn

OK, here is what today’s test showed. Problem: Switching apps on the iPad can cause latency under IDAM. I first noticed this when running the Galileo Organ app. I always start off with a fresh boot of the iPad and no other app running except the instrument I want to play. Within the Galileo Organ ap...

Re: How To Use IDAM With Digital Performer - Use iPad As Syn

I did some testing over two days, two different sessions, but results are inconclusive. The first day I tested with a piano in Korg Module and after a couple of hours it definitely seemed like latency was increasing, and I rebooted DP and the iPad and it seemed to get better. The next day, I tested ...

Re: Pull Your Hair Out, WTF MIDI Problem #203

So, I bought a new Kontakt instrument for Black Friday and I load it up into DP, and WTF ? The levels are really low! And I’m thinking, “What kinda jackass-ed programming is this?” But then I notice that the MIDI fader on that track is pulled way down. So I pull it back up to 127. But, then WTF , i...
