See FAQ listed here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=61937#p527094

I reported this issue and it's not listed yet, what's going on

I will lag behind slightly on checking Windows only issues, since I do not use Windows as my primary OS. I ask the community to help extra with confirming these issues.

If you feel that I've been too slow, just shoot me a PM or email audiolabs [at] gmail.com

win10, DP 9.1(x64)
Issue 1: values not showing for older stock plugins (for instance, Trim). Value fields are just white. You can enter values, and they seem to take effect...you just can't see what the values actually are. Some of the newer plugins also exhibit minor gui misalignments (megasynth is one).
Reported/confirmed to MOTU, as of v8. It seems related to win10 specifically from what i can tell.

Issue 2: Custom59 can freeze DP's gui (unless you press/hold a fader or similar, at which point animations, like the transport counter will work until the button or fader is released).
Save/restart of DP seems to cure it, but it can be re-triggered afterward. It seems to have to do with modifying the tubes, pre amp, power amp and speaker cab settings. Usually changing a few will cause the issue. LiveRoomG does similar (add a mic, modify stuff, and the gui freezes similarly to custom59). In both cases, audio passes just fine.
Both reported/confirmed by MOTU. This has been present since v8, and doesn't seem to correlate to any OS in particular (win7, 8.1, and 10 all exhibit this issue for me).
This freezing seems to be along the lines of when you run with too much cpu in use, DP will "freeze" the gui animations to allow audio to pass. So it's probably triggered by a cpu spike, but DP doesn't realize that it's not a continuous state (at least the meter doesn't show more than a spike). That's my guess anyway.
