Re: DP8 Issue or Mac OS Issue?
I can no longer paste in the Save As.. text field in DP8 either. I do this multiple times a day as part of my dev process. I have a keyboard shortcut setup to copy the chunk name, choose Save As, set to MIDI file and paste the chunk name into the text field. Double-clicking on a folder in the same d...

Re: Just got DP7: Can't Launch (OSX Error -8796)
1) Did you try following the file sharing instructions above exactly? Meaning, did you delete the shared folders (including the public folder) from the shared folder locations? No. I simply deleted the folders from within the Sharing System Pref. They're still not there in the Sharing Pref. If I do...

Re: Just got DP7: Can't Launch (OSX Error -8796)
Thanks for your advice and wisdom, I will take it to heart. This is my home machine and I don't have immediate projects, so I've got time to think about my plan. I probably could wipe my HD clean and reinstall SL (and everything else), but man do I hate to have to deal with that. I'll put up a post ...

Re: Just got DP7: Can't Launch (OSX Error -8796)
I think I'm giving up on DP. I don't know what to do and i've spent hours on this. I'm sick of wasting my time. Motu gave me the Font Finagler trick and also had me create a new admin user. But I haven't heard from them since. I've turned Sharing on/off and logged out/in. I was able to remove plugin...

Re: Just got DP7: Can't Launch (OSX Error -8796)
oh, I forgot to add that I've tried running the DP 6.0.2 font update, but I get this error: "an error prevented the update from completing 11500:2-14" I figured it didn't like the fact that everything before DP7 no longer exists on my machine. Come to think of it, I feel the same way. :cry:

Re: Just got DP7: Can't Launch (OSX Error -8796)
6.0.1 ran fine on my machine when Leopard was installed. Then, in my excitement over SL and dp7, I installed both and started experiencing this crash. At one point, i decided to get rid of everything MOTU (don't know what I was thinking) and reinstall dp7 to see if that fixed it . It did not. I have...

Re: Just got DP7: Can't Launch (OSX Error -8796)
Thanks for your help MLC. It just so happens I installed Snow Leopard last weekend and then DP7 a couple days later. I looked into reinstalling just the fonts as you mentioned from my SL disk, however it appears to me as though I can choose to install additional fonts, but there doesn't seem to be a...

Re: Just got DP7: Can't Launch (OSX Error -8796)
Thanks all for your help. Unfortunately I still cannot boot dp7. Motu suggested cleaning the font caches then restarting & relaunching, but that didn't change anything. I Still get the -8796 error message followed by a crash. Motu also suggested creating a new admin user and launching dp, but th...

Just got DP7: Can't Launch (OSX Error -8796)
I just got DP7 and installed it on my iMac which is running 10.6.1. Whenever I try to boot up, I get this message "DP Has Encountered an Error/ MacOS error: Unexpected error (-8796)" I've uninstalled, removed previous versions of DP and trashed preferences, to no avail. I also repaired Dis...

Can DP retain dotted click values on MIDI Import?
Greetings all, If I have a MIDI file with a click value of a dotted quarter (say 3/8 time), when I import this into DP (5 or 6), the click turns into an 8th note. Even if I export the MIDI file from DP with a dotted-quarter note, upon re-importing it's back to an 8th. Am I missing a preference somew...

Exporting MIDI by Cmd-Dragging out of Chunks
In an attempt to find a quicker way to export MIDI files I've found that I can Cmd-Drag from the chunks window to the finder. However, my markers get deleted. Does anyone have any experience with quickly exporting a MIDI file from dp...successfully? I've got a ton of tiny MIDI files to export, and n...

I must be a moron - How to place track specific text
I'm looking for a way to add text to a track, other than the comments window in DP 5. I see on MIDI.org that there's a Lyric Meta Event Definition, though I don't see how I can add lyrics. Can this be done in DP? I sure as heck can't find it and haven't received an email reply from MOTU. Here's what...

Melodyne looks cool indeed. I was hoping I could change the tempo of a single mp3 file (or wav, or any other fomat) in DP, without having to buy other software. I downloaded Live 5, and could drop the tempo in half without much problem. I also checked out the Amazing Slow Downer, a $45 dollar app an...
