DP8 on Yosemite-Meters, counter, etc don't move during play

Post by bobschwenkler »

So I just installed DP8 onto Yosemite and I'm getting a problem that's a total show stopper for me.

While I'm playing back nothing that normally moves moves. This includes the playback counter, mixer metering, effects control knobs, and the playback wiper.

I hadn't run DP8 on 10.9, this is the first time I've used it, so I can't compare it to past installs.

Weird! Anyone else experience anything similar?

Not sure what "Yosemite" is at this point, since it isn't released. I have (or had) a beta, but it now says 10.9.5, not 10.10. Everything's working on my version of OS X. Actually, it doesn't say beta anymore. They may have taken it away from me. I was sending them a lot of reports! After the last Software Update, I was back to 10.9.5. Maybe I owe that to Software Update, and shouldn't have allowed it to install anything.

Anyway, this is the time to bring it up to MOTU. If you see trouble coming down the pike, head it off at the pass!

It looks like you're using DP 8.05. I don't think it's compatible with Yo. The newly released 8.07 is compatible.

Bingo. It's weird how apps that were released before a future OS isn't even IN beta don't work sometimes! :D 8.07 should work. Let us know how it goes. I'd love to go to Yosemite when it's officially released as long as it doesn't break too much stuff. :)

LOL.... yep. And it's just luck. It's always a crapshoot with old apps and newer OSes.

Just found a MAJOR issue with Yosemite that will preclude me from using it on my MacBook for live shows:
