DP11 backwards version compatibility?

Post by smashprod »

I am going to be exchanging DP projects with someone running DP8; I use DP11. Are the files compatible? If so, what should I watch out for to STAY compatible?

There's an option to Save As... where there's a pop-up menu in the save dialog that let's you choose a DP version to save as.

I guess the question will be which new features will get lost when you do this version shift. I think your MIDI and audio should be fine. Not sure about plugs, etc.
M1 MBP; OS 12, FF800, DP 11.3, Kontakt 7, Reaktor 6, PC3K7, K2661S, iPad6, Godin XTSA, Two Ibanez 5 string basses (1 fretted, 1 fretless), FM3, SY-1000, etc.
