Re: Event Chasing PreRoll

Following up on this, as I never got it resolved. To summarize, "Notes" is checked in Event Chasing. No problem with long notes that aren't arpeggiators, such as piano for example. But notes that are arpeggiators don't start on a beat. They are off by a fraction of a beat, even if start pl...

Event Chasing PreRoll

I've set up Event Chasing to chase notes so that if I start in the middle of phrase that has several whole notes tied together, I can still hear the MIDI track with the whole notes. Problem is that it sounds like DP is starting the chase a little before the playback. This is an issue when the whole ...

Re: Cursor Hand Goes Missing

Here's a quick fix I just discovered: When the issue arises, right click anywhere in the Transport and deselect "Editor Tools" from the pop up menu. Then right click again anywhere in the Transport and select "Editor Tools." That works for me so far.

Re: Cursor Hand Goes Missing

I had hoped for me too, but sadly the little hand icon disappeared today. Booo! The only fix that seems to work for me is to quit DP and re-open the set. And, to be clear, it happens on all my sets, not just specific to one. I can't seem to find anything I'm doing that would make it occur. A set of ...

Cursor Hand Goes Missing

Has anyone had this issue: The cursor hand that pops up when dragging MIDI notes or dragging WAVs longer or shorter randomly goes missing. I can still see the arrow and the plus, but the little hand that should pop up when making MIDI or WAVs longer or shorter just goes away. I've tried toggling the...

Re: Double Click Select-All

I have the double click settings on my Mac set to the fastest. And, in DP, in the MIDI editing preferences, I've set double click to "do nothing." This double click select-all thing also happens when editing controllers in audio as well. Maybe it's not a double click. Maybe it's a click on...

Double Click Select-All

Please please please tell me how to make a double click STOP selecting all. For example, I click on a MIDI note, then click again, and it selects ALL the MIDI notes. or, I click on a volume controller, then click again, and it selects ALL the volume controllers. I want this to stop. How do I get it ...

Dragging MIDI Notes Up and Down -FIXED DP11.32

:surrender: When dragging MIDI notes in the MIDI editor long distances, DP is placing the MIDI note much lower than the desired target. For example, if I want to drag a MIDI note up from C1 to C6, I can grab the C1, scroll up to C6, release my mouse button, and the note drops down to a random note, ...

Edit Per Note Event

Just made a giant upgrade from DP 8 to DP 11.
Noticed in the MIDI Editor there's a button for "Edit Per Note Event" that seems to get activated when I double-click on a MIDI note. What is this? How can I turn it off?

Re: Bounce Out WAV with Timecode embedded

Thanks, Mike.

I ended up just putting audio on the right and timecode on the left. Seemed to work for what I needed. But your advice is excellent moving forward. Thanks again.

Bounce Out WAV with Timecode embedded

Hello All,

How do I bounce out a WAV file, but also include timecode information embedded within that WAV?

Thanks!

Re: MP3 Turns into WAV Upon Import

Hi Aaron, I think all 'proper' DAWs convert compressed formats in order to work with them. This I think is to get round the issues of the way file compression works. I'm no expert at all but I think often compression works by having a mixture of full fat audio frames (called I-Frames) with all the ...

Re: MP3 Turns into WAV Upon Import

Tonio, I don't see this preference. Can you be more specific?
I have Automatic Conversions turned off and all parameters set to "Never"
