Re: Merged soundbites disappear

I just discovered after a few tests, that I now can replicate the issue. so basically if I merge a portion, then remove unused soundbites, then flush undo history and right after that I temporarily open another app (so let's say, I open finder, or I switch to safari, or any other app) and then come ...

Merged soundbites disappear

So, I've been using DP since DP4, almost 20 years! but this never happened to me, and it started a while ago, let's say around when I upgraded to DP11. I was recording some vocals today, and I had quite a lot of soundbites in various tracks (not that much honestly... let's say 7-8 tracks of vocals, ...

Re: DP 11.33 VocAlign Project ARA

update: just installed and tested VocAlign PRO 6, and it works flawlessly with ARA! it crashed when I used "ARA on tracks", but it works with "ARA on soundbites". this will save TON of time when capturing sources. :)

Re: DP 11.33 VocAlign Project ARA

ok thanks everyone. unfortunately that is the same method I'm already using with the capture in real time. Since I usually have dozens+ of tracks to sync, I was really looking forward to an offline method like it's possible with PT or Reaper. hoping they'll fix it with ARA.

thanks.

Re: DP 11.33 VocAlign Project ARA

cool, thanks HCMarkus. so basically with PRO version, you loaded it in every insert of every track and captured (offline?) both guide AND dubs at once?

thanks

Re: DP 11.33 VocAlign Project ARA

thanks everybody for the help!
wow, so are you using VocAlign ULTRA with "offline" captures of both guide/dubs? that would be a game changer since I stopped using VocAlign when they discontinued the offline application.

which version are you using?

thanks!

DP 11.33 VocAlign Project ARA

Hey everyone, I just updated to DP 11.33 reading that ARA for VocAlign was finally supported. but it seems I cannot use it at all... am I missing something? I own VocAlign Project 5 at the moment, and for example, I can easily use it with ARA in Reaper (I'm talking about the offline method, not the ...

Re: Parallel Compression with hardware compressor

Are you connecting via USB or FW? What is your Mac? RTL (round trip latency) is much faster on a post 2017 Intel or Apple Silicon machine due to the faster CPU and ability to run much lower buffers. A 5.1 or 6.1 MacPro cannot run as fast. The RME 802 has been out since 2014 and does not support the...

Re: Parallel Compression with hardware compressor

The only way this works for me is to have the dry also go analog so latency is fixed. Either rerecord or mix analog before coming back in. I do something similar when using external processors (analog or digital — it doesn’t matter). Put an instance of the Apple delay plugin on the channels that ar...

Re: Parallel Compression with hardware compressor

thanks for the answer. not sure I should setup the interface mixer, since I cannot set sends (except for the internal fx).
It's so simple in other DAWs and I can't figure why it's not working in DP.

Parallel Compression with hardware compressor

Hi everyone! I searched this in many posts but couldn't find anything similar. Sorry if it's already been discussed. I would love to use my external distressors for parallel compression on drums. I'm mixing ITB since 20 years but I'd like to add some hardware units to the workflow. I set up an aux w...

Re: DP11 crashing when dragging soundbites

I have a similar issue... DP will crash everytime I drag stereo audio files (not mono) from finder to sequence/tracks window. Really annoying.

Hey everyone. I bought an 828es and I'm trying to use it on 11.6 Big Sur. The kext file was not installed after the main installation of the MOTU software/driver. I tried to disable the SIP and followed all the steps but in terminal I got the error I'll attach here in the post. I read some of you gu...
