My Tuning Preferences: • For time stretching/compressing without pitch change, ZTX. • For fine-tuning vocals, Pure DSP. • For changing character of spoken word (faux James Earl Jones), ZTX. • For transposing vocal track (within a few semitones), ZTX Formant Corrected. Thanks! Those are great tips f...

There are new ZTX time and pitch stretching algorithms in DP 9.52. Pure DSP is preferred for vocals. Read up on audio options. A bit of trial and error may be in order to get the best results. Check Preferences>Audio Options. Thanks, I tried but so far, not much difference. Do I have to start a new...

Hi, I am still on DP 8 but trying DP 9 as I upgraded to High Sierra. I record voice overs and use the time stretch function a lot to fit the timing on the commercials. I always did it in DP 8 without any issues but in DP 9.52, the resulting audio has some kind of delay that makes it unusable. Is the...

I gave up and upgraded to DP6 and so far, so good, no static... I do have to say though, I'm kind of lost in DP6

I just live with the Merge function as a part of my daily usage of DP to get past this. I was working on a project last night and the only way to eliminate the static was by merging the audio, so I started merging and undoing the merging to keep editing... a bit of a hassle but at least I could wor...

It gets weirder here!!! I have exactly the same problem with some variations... In my case, I do music and Voice Over. The problem only happens when I do Voice overs. It all started when I upgraded to an Intel Mac and it does not matter if I disable or not the other channels. It is totally random!! ...

So, after some months running fine, I was working on a big project and decided to add another screen to my computer so I could fit everything I was working on with. In the process, I moved my main screen to open space for the additional one and when I started working again in the same project...surp...

Hi Frank,

Right after I posted here, I found out there is a recent update for the driver of the 828 on the MOTU site. I installed it and it worked!! It should work for you too!

Good luck!

Hi! I have a Mac Pro Quad 2.6 and a Motu 828mkII and DP5.13, 5GB RAM I am having a problem with the audio. It gets interrupted continuously. I thought it was a RAM problem (I only had 1 GB of RAM), but then I added 4GB more and the problem still happened. The problem happens randomly and not only ha...

Thanks everybody for the information!!! These files are destined to a phone IVR system and apparently that is the format required.

I sent them today! Even with the compression and the EQ, they sound terrible to me, but the client liked them and that's what matters!

Thanks again!

Hi! Besides a musician, I am also a Voice Over and usually get the weirdest petitions when it comes to formats! This one I am working for is PCM wave 16-bit sample rate 8 Khz Audio Sample Size 128 kbps My first problem is that DP does not support the 8Khz audio sample size, so I tried with Itunes an...

Thanks Dave for all of your knowledge!! I already have flip4mac. WMP never played good on my computer and ever since I installed flip4mac I can access all of the MS content. I guess I will keep trashing the log files and will try to check the smaller ones to see who's writing what. All the Best!! :D

I think you hit it right on!! I have tried to open the big console logs but it normally takes more than 10 minutes and I give up! But the reason why I think you're right is because I have been noticing that whenever itunes is working, the fans go on and the computer gets really hot and slows down. I...

I have a G4 Powerbook 1.33 17" that has been with me for a long time. I recently upgraded to a MacPro and have been running great. Some glitches here and there, but nothing too bad. When I bought the MacPro, I cleaned the G4 and left the basic stuff just to use it for travelling and light inter...

I had to do it when I upgraded from my powerbook to the Intel Mac Pro. It is just an update that you install, the library stays the same. They have all the info in this page:
