Re: Background Processing "Stuck"?

This happens to me. Doesn't really interfere, but it's a little annoying. Has anyone figured out how to remedy? THX!

Re: Can't load DP8 in 32-bit- Whuh?

Not sure what happened to my response from last night, but Thanks!
Are you saying I should hit 3-2 when I turn the computer on?
The load in 32-bit is already checked on the Get Info screen of DP8 and it still loads as 64-bit.
Hoping I don't have to uninstall/re-install.

Re: DP 7.21 - Cannot see audio/MIDI tracks in Sequence or Tr

Thanks! Don't know why this has never come up before . . .
Will try tonight. I thought I tried the view filter setting and nothing, but maybe not.

Re: DP 7.21 - Cannot see audio/MIDI tracks in Sequence or Tr

What about the "view filter"?
I ask b/c I'm not on my Mac now (at work on a horrifying PC).
Any details you can tell me are appreciated.
Thanks.

DP 7.21 - Cannot see audio/MIDI tracks in Sequence or Tracks

I've used DP since 3 and now, suddenly, I cannot see any tracks in the Tracks and Sequence windows. I can hear them; they are there, but I cannot see them. Tried using my version of 7.12 and they don't show up there either. What gives? I'm an idiot, right? Please, guide me! THX.

5.12 + 10.4.11 = chaos. HELP!

I cannot figure this out. Been running 5.12 on 10.4.11 for a number of months w/very few problems. Suddenly, if I click on a soundbite (highlight it) DP disappears. I downloaded 5.13, same deal. I have a Dual 1G G4 w/1.75 GB RAM. I'm baffled. Trashed the preferences file, no dice. HELP! and thanks.

Basic Input Question

This seems almost too stupid to ask, but I'm stumped. i just got a new Mytek ADC Stereo96. I'm running from SP-DIF out on the new box into the SP-DIF input on my 2408mkIII, but I can't seem to create a SP-DIF input track in DP4.6. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

That was actually me, forwarding the message from MOTU to me on to the board. MOTU help is spotty, but not non-existent. I sent them an email on 10/13 and got the resonse from Josh yesterday -- so it took five days, but they do generally get back & I believe they honestly try to be helpful.

From MOTU: Check your Background Processing. I'd recommend setting your preferences to: - Wait until analysis is needed - Mute old soundbites - Show both high & low priority tasks - Disable automatic beat & tempo detection - Never look for beat & tempo automatically Josh Hetrick MOTU Tec...

This is really strange & I'm not going to be cocky about it, but I MAY have fixed the CPU spiking problem in 4.6 when I went to a consolidated window set-up. For reasons that remain mysterious (to me -- I'm an idiot), in songs that had previously spiked (some of them a mere 2 audio tracks) the C...

It didn't happen when I first upgraded. Bizarre. I don't really want to go back to 4.12.
