Re: DP 8.07 Audio driver shutdown and memory allocation issu

You mean "buffer size" in the DP Hardware Setup dialogue? It varies. 256 (or even 128) when I'm recording, or 2046 the rest of the time. Thing is, this problem happens no matter what the buffer size is set to...

(Thanks for replying, btw)

Hi there, Just got a 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon MacPro with 6 GB RAM installed, running OS 10.7.3 (Lion). I bought a DP upgrade to 7.24 and I am trying ton install it.

Ah! "Olestra" was the low-fat alternative that caused anal leakage. Those were the days, my friend. Ruined some nice pants...and a sofa...in the 90s, but I was thinner, damnit! :) I did try fixing the session with "Load..." but gave up after a while because the NEW session was cr...

I thought "John W" reminded me of someone I once knew, only much more helpful. :) Thanks for the tips--and yes, I guess MOTU's support will take longer than a few days. I'm going to bump up PT to 7-something in the next few days and probably get more RAM just to get through the next week o...

I think you're right

My friend's DP system uses a gig and a half for his DP files, mine uses all 5 GB...I've sent a support request to MOTU but the response might take a few days... I'm only running TWO VIs (Stylus, with 6 tracks, and MachFive, with three) plus maybe six to eight stereo audio tracks on the particular se...

new info?

With the excellent help of my friend Bruce Fowler, from Modular Music (some may know him as a list veteran here), I think I've narrowed things down to a RAM-eating problem in the original file. ••• first we opened the original file, and tried inserting various less memory-intensive instruments (DP's...

tried a bunch of things...not great

thanks to all for your help. here's what I've done: ••• trashed the AU Info Cache and the DP Prefs, and after a very long and shakey re-reading of all the plugs and instruments, it opened. And crashed when I inserted Stylus! ••• Updated Stylus to the latest version (1.5.1) and checked everything els...

I'm overwhelmed by all of your generous replies; I'm at home now, having given up for the night, but I'll try ALL of these suggestions tomorrow and I'll be sure to report on what happens. THANK YOU!

seems to be specifically Stylus now

what seems to be causing the crashes is the launching of Stylus. I just lowered the CPU percentage to 65% from 80%--this hasn't seemed to help. will it hurt, do you think?? I have about 14 other sequences of varying complexity using various amounts of VIs within this same file. In earlier versions o...

DP 5.11 Crashing All The Time--Please Help!

Hi there everyone, Please forgive me if this topic has been addressed, but I'm new here, and at the moment, rather desperate. I'm running DP 5.11 with Digi 002R on a G5 Dual 2.0/OSX 10.4.8 with 5GB RAM. I'm also using a UAD-1 card with version 4.40 software. I use DP with MachFive, Stylus RMX, MSI, ...
