"Any word on when MOTU plans to address this?" I seem to remember that the MOTU article about this blamed changes in the way QT7 plays it's audio track ... and then offered the extract audio method as a work around (no mention of fixing it) ... which is what I've been doing - it's a bit o...

Apparently when you play a QT movie in DP with QT7, the movie audio is out of sync with the pix ... but if you extract the audio track of the QT movie then the resulting DP audio track is in sync. there's a tech article somewhere on the MOTU site about this. Any word on when MOTU plans to address t...

BTW, I've found out that it's a DP and Quicktime 7 issue and that MOTU is aware of the problem and working on it.

Well that's really strange then, cause I didn't hire a bass player and played the part myself. So I did a lot of MIDI editing in the graphic editor, and didn't run into that problem. Very strange. I really don't know what causes it. The problem was also in 4.6 and my friends had the problem worse t...

As for the other problem, I don't use pitch correction.

It's not pitch correction I am referring to. It's editing the MIDI notes in the graphic editor (piano roll).

I see. Interesting. I suppose you've considered editing down your 45 min show into a QT for each cue using something like Final Cut? Then using that editorial-app-of-choice to piece your master stems (stereo or surround) back together, matching to timecode? I'm just trying to throw out a workaround...

The lag is subtle, but annoying when you're trying to write around dialog. Weird. I've never experienced this "lag" either. Granted, most of my work is for short-form broadcast video (e.g., promos, commercials, etc.), but I've never run across this problem. I always import the QT's audio ...

Just finished muisc for a trailer and I had no lag with the Quicktime movie. The lag is subtle, but annoying when you're trying to write around dialog. I know three other people who have 4.61 and have these same exact issues. We all have different setups, so I know this is not problem with just my ...

The "incorrect pitch in Graphic Editor entry" bug is now MUCH worse in 4.61. While MOTU added a sort of "snap to pitch" feature while entering notes visually, the corresponding pitch you hear is almost always incorrect. One time as I was entering an E, I was hearing an Eb, and wh...

I have to say that the lack of any standard PCI slots in favor of having all PCIe slots on the new G5s is idiotic on Apple's part. There are tons of PCI cards still on the market and being produced today and only a handful of PCIe cards (most of which are just graphics cards). In fact, there's usual...

AUTOMATABLE CLICK!! I have to record click into an audio track everytime we do a recording session where DP has to slave. Because of preroll, the conductor will never know when 8 clicks into Bar 1 will be. A simple mute/unmute "event" for the metronome in the conductor track would suffice....

Heh. I'm still running DP on my single CPU 867MHz G4. I guess I just don't know what I'm missing. That and I'm too lazy to buy a new computer and install everything again. I totally forgot how I made my custom patch lists, and I'd have to make them again.

I started having this same latency problem too ever since I updated to 4.6 and it is very annoying. It's disorienting to try and write music around dialog when the audio I'm hearing isn't really when it is supposed to be. Is anyone else having this issue? I know two other people who have DP 4.6 and ...
