Hi all, I am currently running DP 5.13 on an Intel iMac with Leopard (now 10.5.5) and 4GBs of RAM. My current VIs are Vienna Special Edition and MachFive 2. I'm considering adding East West's Gold collection to the mix, now that the PLAY editions are Intel Mac-compatible. The sounds will be on one e...

Hopefully this lesson will help somebody else... maybe you, dalevin!

I did exactly the same thing - sorry for wasting everyone's time!

Hi, all -

I'm having the same problem - only started happening today. It used to work fine - with exactly the same setup.

Hi, all - I'm getting a lot of distortion on sustain string patches - especially MachFive's VSL - in MachFive 2. I've tried it in both standalone and as a plug-in in DP. The rest of the patches seem to work fine (though, of course, the piano patch is not the best). I get no distortion with Vienna Sp...

Hi, all -

How do I set DP up to record to my external hard drive?

Thanks!

I have a brand-new iMac 2.4 Ghz (20-inch), Intel Core 2 Duo.

Which one of these memory upgrades would be better? Or are they essentially the same?

Hi all,

Does anyone know what VSL sounds are included in MachFive 2? I'm considering buying some Vienna packages but would like to avoid overlaps.

Thanks!

Hi all, As it turns out, I will be receiving an iMac with Leopard in a few days. Everything I have ordered - software and hardware - is compatible with it. My keyboard controller (M-Audio Radium 49), however, is not. (I don't think any M-Audio products are Leopard-compatible yet.) So, I guess I have...

Hi all, Again, thanks for all the great advice! Would the M-Audio Fast Track USB audio interface be appropriate for my setup? And is an audio interface necessary at this stage (probably a dumb question, but I don't know enough to know if it is)? Also, would I need a MIDI interface? And if so, would ...

Again, thanks so much for the advice!

For the external hard drives, is firewire connection a must (as opposed to USB)?

What external hard drives would you recommend (are Glyphs the only good ones)?

And how do you daisy-chain external hard drives?

Thanks!

Thanks to everybody for the information!

If I went the Mac mini route, would I put MachFive or Vienna Special Edition on the external hard drive?

Or, if I went for a bigger/better Mac, would I just put all the programs on that computer and forgo the external hard drive?

Thanks again.

Hi all, I'm new to this forum. I'm an aspiring film composer who's trying to build a starter system on a $2000-2500 budget. I know that won't be anywhere near optimum - I just need something to start with. Would the following setup work? Mac mini (I already have a monitor) with the faster processor ...
