Actually, Zaster, the AU DOES happen to be UB! (They have a beta tester you can download.) They just haven't made the actual standalone VI engine in UB. When run as an AU, it has practically all of the functions of the VI. I agree that using Finale as a sequencer seems archaic, and it does limit you...

HELP! Trying to use DP as an AU playback device with Finale

I am doing a project on my Macbook Pro with a ton of MIDI tracks and VI's, and when i tried to do the project simply using DP as a sequencer and loading the sounds into Kontakt, I started getting cracks and pops just after adding in a third instrument. However, when I used Finale as a sequencer and ...

Help! Can't get Kontakt to work with DP!

After a lot of deliberation (and advice from this forum!) I recently purchased DP and Kontakt 2 for a project where I am needing to play samples live and also use tracks. I LOVE working with Kontakt, but in trying to start using DP I am running into a brick wall. I can't get anything to make sound! ...

Hey, thanks for the info! Since your system is so similar to what I am needing, is there anything I should know regarding hardware OR software that will help decrease latency or improve stability? (Having to rent the system, and not familiar with setup.) Also, is DP 5 buggy or less stable than 4.61?

Best Mac system for DP/Kontakt being used live...

I am making the jump to softsamplers for a national tour of a musical and am trying to setup a system to use Kontakt and DP live. At times I will be using DP to play tracks, but for the most part I will be using Kontakt to play samples live. (While I intend to load quite a few sounds into RAM, I wil...

Thanks for checking! It makes me feel a lot better knowing at least someone out there has tried it and it has worked!

Hey, thanks for checking out the Brass translation into Mach Five! Couple of quick questions. Since I will be running Mach Five in DP, will doing MIDI sequences with the sounds in Mach Five in any way threaten to crash the system, and should there be any latency issues? (Small orchestration, mostly ...

ProjectSAM Brass on Mach Five

Has anyone here used ProjectSAM Brass with Mach Five? Does it import easily? How is the library? The demos sound great, but are the sounds good? Are they substantially better than Quantum Leap Brass? Thanks for any thoughts!

Using DP/Mach Five live

(I posted this question on the Mach 5 forum as well, but a lot of my questions also have to do with DP, so...) I am a musical director needing to figure out a way to use a soft sampler as part of my reduced orchestra pit on a national tour this fall. (After using keyboards and hard samplers for year...

(After using keyboards and hard samplers for years, I would like to take advantage of the large sample libraries that have come out in recent years. For this pr...
