Hi. Just installed Big Sur on my Intel chip iMac, and DP's "configure audio system" doesn't see my Thunderbolt 8pre ES anymore, nor does the audio portion in System Preferences. Downloaded & installed what I think are the latest drivers from the MOTU site, but still no go. Suggestions?...

Great thread!

Hi. I find that when I duplicate a sequence I often get the markers, event list, and some etc's in the sidebar from the previous sequence. I can select from the sidebar and change, but it's a PITA and wastes a lot of time.

Hi folks, I'm dragging out and plugging in some old MIDI devices of mine, but need a new MIDI interface, and want to go with MOTU products. I could use one that can do MMC and stripe timecode, but that's just an "I'm glad I have it for this oddball project" add-on. Some reviews I have read...

pre-insert on the template is a good idea, too....lately, if i'm doing a mix, i just drag provided tracks into their respective instrument folders, but having more dedicated blank tracks to fill up would save a number of steps.

Thanks, people! I do option/drag the plugins, especially if there are 2 tracks that are similar....adjust one and then copy it to the other. I generally have been putting trims on the individual tracks, but think one on a group fader is a good idea for when things get loud!

Hi. Is there any way, in the Mix window, to apply a plug-in (ex: 'trim') to all track faders at the same time?

I had never heard of sending MIDI from an audio track til right now. Please, could you give a brief synopsis of how that does (can) work, and some examples of what it might do?

Thanks!

Wow! Thanks, AGM!

I'm going to give this a try....I really appreciate it.

d.a.

It worked y'all! Thanks!

Hi, for as long as I remember, you could (in the tracks window) change input or output to only one track at a time. Is this still the case? I can't find anything in the manual. Ex: Take all drum tracks and send them to the same output at one time.

Ah, my continuing saga with my new piece of gear....2 things: --I have an old 8pre lightpiped to my new 8pre-es. I'm getting signal passed to the ES, because I can see the meter on the ES monitoring the input. I guess I don't know much about optical, because nothing is coming out of my speakers! sho...

So it's TB2 out of the 8pre-es?

Hi folks. I'm pretty much of a newbie to Thunderbolt, so have been having trouble hooking up the 8pre-es I just bought to my 2020 iMac. I've had success with the USB/USB connection, but want the TB. None of the MOTU literature nor the manual says anything about which cables to use. MOTU's online adv...

your mileage may vary!
