Thanks Rodney !
Sorry not having mentioned...I was looking for multitrack manipulation videos…

Klaus
It's the same. Select the soundbites in all of the multiple tracks you want to scale. Scale them. They all scale together. (I've got my multiple-tracks all in the same Group, which helps a lot.) You can also do manipulations of the conductor track, I think; though that's something I've never done much with since I don't do click tracks....

That doesn't make any sense to me. Scaling audio means scaling soundbites, I have no idea what you were planning to scale if you didn't have soundbites. It sounds like you should just try it out. If you have DP 9, the upgrade is free. Let us know whether it works for you.

Sorry for my english
I meant : I understand that soundbites have to be created first…
and
if multiple soundbites are stretched, is the result phase coherent ?
That's why I got Melodyne 4 in the first place for, to stretch multiple tracks to get rid of the flanging from bleeding…

Take a look at the MOTU site and videos. I don't recall where, but I think I saw a statement in reference to pitch changes saying yes to your question.

In previous updates to DP, the installer changed the version of DP appearing in the MacOS Launchpad screen to the latest version -- the one being installed, But with this update, it did not -- DP 9.13 is the version that shows in the Launchpad.

Before installing V9.5, I renamed the DP app file by adding the version number to the file name. DP 9.5 appears as simply "Digital Performer" in the Finder.

Anyone know of a way to get the Launchpad to recognize and launch 9.5 instead of 9.13?

I finished up a project with loads of fades and edge edits that was causing earlier DP9 versions to freeze. Initially, was still getting dropouts for no reason that makes sense given the CPU load, but these disappeared with the buffer set to 1K.

With the issues around pitch-shifting/stretching fades & crossfades, would it make sense to do a merge step before running the pitch/time processes?

Sounds like it could be a timesaver.

I'm gonna download and install now. Thanks MOTU!

Running pretty solid here so far. Anybody notice any of the theme tweaks mentioned? I went through them and they all looked pretty much the same to me.

Please report back about the CC64 problem you were having. I never was able to duplicate it after the 9.13 update. Good luck!
I saw your report in another thread:

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=62125&start=90#p546102

This is strange. Can they provide any info in duplicating the bug?

Bug still crawling around my system under 9.5. MOTU has said they can duplicate, and I know others have the same issue, but I can't provide any details, as MOTU has not apprised me. I sent an update to my MOTU Techlink.

Other than that, I worked on a mix for several hours tonight and 9.5 worked great!
