Re: Do "Bounce to Disk" to set the outputs
Just a guess -- is it possible that you have selected a file type (for the bounce) that doesn't support multi-channel?

Melodyne updated to 5.4.1
I updated yesterday. There was a heart-stopping moment when it couldn't find the plugin, but then I remembered that you have to enable the VST3 and disable the AU versions in order to use it as an ARA. Once installed, I used it all afternoon without incident. ************************ The update to V...

Re: Vocalign Project 5 udate 5.1.9.1
There is now an update to version 5.1.10.1. But I'm having two issues with Vocalign 5 project (VST 3). First, very often. when I instantiate the ARA from the sequencer window, DP crashes. But sometimes, it works fine. I have tried a bunch of things, and can't seem to figure out the "magic"...

Re: Question about Melodyne
Like many in this thread, I didn't find the editing of single notes in Melodyne to be very different from editing using the built-in pitch editing. But adding in Melodyne Essentials also enables polyphonic audio-to-midi functionality in DP, which seems to be quite nice (though far from perfect!). Pr...

Enlarging marker text
There are a lot of controls over text and color, but I can't seem to locate one that will change the size of the marker text when it is displayed in the tracks (or sequence) window. In the picture below you can see that the marker text ("As far as" and "I don't need a whole sky.."...

Re: New Machine vs Legacy Projects: What options have I (if any...)
You may want to convert those SDII file to .wav... That bug was fixed in a later version of DP 10—finally. Still a good recommendation. You can convert the files after opening the project in DP 10.13 or DP 11. You can also change the sample rate and bit depth at the same time. It's quick and easy N...

Re: New Machine vs Legacy Projects: What options have I (if any...)
Speaking of legacy projects... I needed to revive an old recording session -- but first I had to find the archive, then update it for a modern system. I headed down into storage where there were a collection of boxes in the basement, each with stacks of old recordable CDs. Many were labelled! Readin...

Re: Is there a way to quantize pitch bend to a musical interval, not time?
Possibly you are thinking of the "pitch bend range" parameter. This would be in the VI (in the old days, it would be in the synth module). It would usually be set to a small number like 1 or 2 (1 meaning the pitch bend wheel goes up and down a semi-tone, 2 meaning it goes +/- whole tone). ...

Re: guitar effect chains; two questions
That "Insert Settings" box is very useful for saving and recalling chains of effects -- and it comes with lots of presets! I don't know I missed it -- thanks for the pointers!

guitar effect chains; two questions
Hi MOTUnation -- it's been a long time since i have been here (last seen in DP6, but now upgraded to a shiny new v. 10). One thing I really like about the new version is the guitar effects processing, and hence my questions. First, is there a collection or repository (or something) of nice effects c...

automating/live control over masterworks EQ parameters
I'm trying to figure out how to automate the various controls in the MS equalizer. For example, is there a way to change the frequency parameter in the blue (low frequency) equalizer? Alternatively, is there a way to assign a MIDI controller to change this parameter via MIDI CC #? I've been searchin...

A workaround for DP/US428 control surface incompatibilities
As the above comments noted, the US428 control features no longer work with DP5 and above (though the audio and MIDI features work fine). Here is a workaround -- a program that reads in the control interface data and sends that to appropriate "command" messages in DP. You can download this...

DP5 and Tascam US-428
Hi -- I've just upgraded my computer and so I'm now on an iMac with Leopard and DP 5.13. Previously (a laptop, Tiger and DP4.63) I had been using a US-428 as audio/MIDI interface plus control surface. Now that I've upgraded, the audio and MIDI work fine, but I can't seem to get the control surface w...
