Hi everyone, this is my first post here. I've been studying the DP9 demo and following the tutorials on Groove3. One thing I noticed is that the alt key doesn't for for some function as it's supposed to. For example:
1. When creating a new track, hold alt to create multiple tracks
2. When adding tabs, hold alt while clicking another category to make a second tab instead of replacing the current one.
When I do any of this and press alt, the menu just closes. Am I doing something wrong here? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Re: Alt key doesn't for some functions on Windows
Maybe that isn't active in DP9 now that there is a create tracks command to create multiple tracks. I'm relatively new to DP as well, so I could be missing something.
Any other commands not working for you? I have several alt- commands that work here (Win 8.1 and Win 10).
For what it's worth, there is a Windows specific forum here for us. Windows users might not read the Mac forum.

Re: Alt key doesn't for some functions on Windows
Yes my bad. I only saw the windows category once I finished posting. If the mods could move it to the proper category that would be great.
The alt key works fine when you have to press alt while pressing a button.
It doesn't work when a menu is open and you have to press alt at the same time. Sometimes the menu just flashes for a split second because it has the same effect as pressing the ESC key.
