VEP 5 not working with DP8 Windows

Post by ftvessen »

Hi all,

I am having the strangest problem with getting VE Pro5 to work with Digital Performer. I am using 2 PC's, both running WIndows 7 Pro, using one for my DAW, the other one as a slave for sample libraries with VE.

My setup works great with Samplitude, Studio One, Sonar, Pro Tools and Reaper, but when I am trying Digital Performer 8, VE Pro keeps starting and stopping the engine when I am trying to play back, causing serious problems. It also goes into MIXDOWN mode when I am trying to play back. Very strange, never happens in any of the other programs. I have tried different buffer settings, decoupling and everything else I could think of, but no luck. It even does this with an empty instance of VE. I called MOTU to ask if this was a known problem, but they had never heard of it. They just referred me to Vienna instead. While it is clearly a DP related problem...

Anyone able to shed some light into this? Anything I can do, like a setting in DP?

Thanks.... Frank

i don't have VEP anymore, but in DP, are you running it in realtime mode?
The setting is in the Mini menu at the top right corner of the plugin's window.
