Appreciation

Post by scooter »

You know I've moaned and belly ached as much as the next guy over the years about Digital Performer. I've used it forever and have tried other DAW's but always came back to D.P. So in these times of crisis and given time to reflect I wanna say thanks to the MOTU people for giving me a reliable tool that I've used for so many years that has (even with some glitches) gotten me through every project i needed to deliver. Cheers!!!

Well said. I suppose "reliable" is a bit of a stretch, for me, but I still appreciate it.

One other thing is that, some software developers will over time take away features as they add new ones. And the ones they remove can cause some pain. MOTU has been pretty careful about adding new features, but leaving old ones intact (even if they aren't always "tended to").

I can almost always approach a new project with confidence that the features I need will always be there.

James has been on Instagram posting interesting methods of shopping. Lol

I would add my thanks to him at this time for keeping MOTU Nation up and running for so long.

I'll add my voice. DP has driven me crazy for the past year, but since I finally got things sorted, I am again in love with my fave software, fave developer and fave knowledge forum.

Many thanks to James for this great board.
It adds incredible value to individual experiences.

Manu thanks to Motu for building such a deep and flexible music tool.
You don't have to learn how Motu wants you to use it.
Along the days, you build your own best way to use it.
