Is anyone on the list using M-Audio 2626s with DP 7.2.2.? I am currently trying to configure these to output 16 analog channels out to a 16 ch summing box and cannot do it. The M-Audio control panel has very limited and confusing parameters and I haven´t found the right settings by trial and error. ...

James, don´t get your hopes up too much, the latency using this optical connection makes overdubs pretty much impossible. I have been using the opto out on my MBP and Mini for 2 years but only for mixing. It sounds pretty OK.

Not brave but careful. Installed onto a new HD in a FireWire box and used the migration manager to get everything from my old system.The only wrinkle was having to re-authorize DP again. Tried some old projects that I could not open before and hey-presto, perfect. Then I zeroed my original drive and...

Thought this may be interesting for folks. A house technician I met while on tour had this self modified MBP. The video is pretty poor but you can get the idea. Apparently it didn´t cost so much to do. Now he´s looking at taking it a step further and incorporating "pinch" zooming. You can ...

If all else fails, take it to someone who runs LOGIC. Load the track in question and use the "De-Mix" Function

Thanks a million iPerformer, the SE window background is exactly the right shade for MY eyes now.

Thanks James, it did the trick, maybe the uninstalling was the mistake. I had the original .zip file saved so unless Motu have implemented some kind of "one time only" thing I think it would have worked had I not un-installed. I think I will try to be patient until iPerformer posts his upd...

Installed as per instructions, launched DP 6.02, all routings , track names, and most plugins GONE. Uninstalled DP 6.02 and re-installed, launched standard DP 6.02 THE SAME. Maybe my mistake but watch out ! I now have a non functioning DP !!! Colin P MacMini C2D, 10.5.6 Re-download the installer fr...

I did not realize I was addicted to Darkmod until I upgraded to 6.02, so I want to thank you iPerformer, for staying on the ball.
Eagerly awaiting your new version. Meanwhile I can live with Amplidudes version, thanks mate.

There is also a new version of MAS. This installer will not run on my MacMini, it also refuses to quit, making a forced
quit & shutdown neccesary. Anyone else seen this? I downloaded it twice but both do the same.

@ HCMarkus That´s why my original plan was to use it as a maintenance/repair bootable disk for myself and some of the old studio computers of colleagues. A way to use a Firewire ATA box I had lying around. Like I said in my original post, I don´t trust it as a recording drive or even a backup disk f...

I'll believe it when I see it.

Right !! Highly Improbable. Take a look on todays Mac rumors That´s where I picked it up.
BTW the Mini already has SATA ! But only internal, no eSATA port.

I am using a MacMini C2D 2GHz with 2GB Ram as my mixdown machine with 10.5.6 and DP6.01. I seldom go beyond 24 tracks @ 24 Bit. The setup is excellent for what I do (live recording on a MacBook Mixing on Mini) and WAY beyond what my old Quicksilver/Sonnet 1.4 GHz did. I can run multiple Altiverbs an...

I recently bought a used Hitachi 2.5" 7200 60GB ATA drive on eBay. I already owned two of these things, they live in "ClearLite" FW boxes that have Oxford Semiconductors FW Bridges. My intention was to use the 3rd drive in a FW box as a PPC OSX 10.4.11 bootable repair disk. I did all ...
