Re: MacBook Pro Quad Core running DP7 & 828mk2

That's what I am assuming. I'm kind of starting a system from scratch again to be honest. As mentioned, I was plug-in looney a few years back and now find myself being way more traditional (EQ, compressors/limiters, delays, verbs); I also have much more outboard and DP seems to come with a lot of gr...

MacBook Pro Quad Core running DP7 & 828mk2

Hello everyone, it's been a long time since I've hung around here. Nice to see so many familiar faces again. I've finally updated from PPC world this week and I'm now the proud owner of a MBP quad core. It's running the latest version of Lion, however I'm considering partitioning the drive and also ...

Re: iLok / Waves issue in DP4.61 Need Help!

For whatever reason, post clone the Waves plug-ins on both the source drive (my OSX 10.4.11 drive for the past 2-3 years) and the new drive (which is taking over duties from this point forward) would not allow DP to open. iLok.com had me update the iLok stuff, and both before and after doing this I ...

Re: iLok / Waves issue in DP4.61 Need Help!

I just placed the original Operating system hard disc back in my G5 and I still cannot get DP to launch. Nothing has changed with this System disk for Tiger. Simply cloned it last night using Carbon Copy Cloner. Synced my iLok on ilok.com, etc. Never had this issue before. I am now officially locked...

iLok / Waves issue in DP4.61 Need Help!

I just bought a new drive and cloned my OS (10.4.11). Launched DP, entered my name and key-code, and now DP hangs with an error code (-5000 unknown) when my iLok protected Waves plugins are trying to authorize. I have never had an issue and I am worried that my iLok is dead. I have a ton of projects...

Re: Audible Isolette EP

That song was recorded in my living room (J-45, antique metronome) and my basement studio (vocals). The guitar was the Oktavamod MK-012 right where the neck meets the body about 6" back, and the UM70s about 12' back in omni for some ambiance. I then panned the OktavaMod center, the um70s hard l...

Audible Isolette EP

Four out of five of these songs were tracked in PTLE (002 clocked to a Mini-Me) on location in a garage and an unfinished basement. I tracked all of the basics live (guitar/bass/drums) and there are no edits except for a couple of bass notes in one song (time-aligned). Vocals, keys (and Reason), and...

Re: How many folks are using DP Mixerless?

I have been mixerless since 2005. I sold my Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro and my Alesis HD24 that I was using for remote recording and never looked back. Using DP on a Powerbook and a G5 and have been working in the box exclusively in DP.

I just easy-installed dp7 and it apparently added the new plugs where they go and all my waves and UAD plugs remained and work fine. DP4 and DP5 are still there and can be used if necessary. So far absolutely stable.
What version of the Waves Plug-ins are you using?

Re: DP 7.01, PPC, 10.4.11...Perfect

Just installed DP 7 and it is opening all my 4.61 files flawlessly. Plus the Lows are deeper, the mids more detailed and defined and the highs are smoother (and clearer, - I mean it's like I took a blanket off my speakers or something). hahaha - just kidding. :mrgreen: Anyway - it's working fine, s...

Re: oktava mk012's from oktavamod

I've been using a pair of OktavaMod Mk-012s for the past year. Had them done by MJ after using stock since 2001. They sound so good that every time I use them people freak. In conjunction with BA312 mic preamps these things are THE sound for spaced overheads. They also sound really great with my Syt...

Re: How well does DP do with a 999oo Mac Book

The MacBook is now the white computer only and it has firewire. All of the MacBook Pros also have firewire, although only FW800.

Re: Difference between AT 4040 AND 4033

GEARBOY, Are you sure that the AT4050 is a cardioid version of the AT4050? :mrgreen: How's the new place doing, by the way? Ha! Corrected. It was late when I posted that, and I spent 6 hours before that doing plaster work. The place is coming together. Thanks for asking. Just working on the bedroom...

Re: Difference between AT 4040 AND 4033

I own a pair of AT4050s (paid under $700 total for the pair new w/ warranty via eBay 18 months back!), and an AT4047 (used for $300 back in 2003). From what I understand, and I may be wrong, the AT4040 is a cardioid version of the AT4050 . Again, I may be wrong. I agree with checking out any vocal m...
