Re: I'm a dunce - how to create a dedicated MONO side chain bus?

Appreciate the reply. Tried that but no joy. The Rackmode Vocoder FX has to see a mono input. But not to worry..I'm giving up on using the Rackmode Vocoder in favor of Reason's BVX Multimode Vocoder. Slap it on a mono vocal track (or any audio track) and the audio on the track is automatically route...

I'm a dunce - how to create a dedicated MONO side chain bus?

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to create a mono side chain bus! I'm trying to use Cherry Audio's Rackmode Vocoder FX as an insert on a a recorded vocal track. The track is mono. Cherry Audio's vocoder requires setup of a side chain input (there is no side chain input "button" o...

Re: Melodyne suddenly reporting authorization conflict

Melodyne website JUST came back online about 1pm today (12-20). As usual, I launched an instance of Melodyne in DP, got the "please activate" message, clicked on that, took me to the website, I logged in, selected "Activate" for my Mac Pro, and was successful.

Man..what a mess.

UPDATE..new "DP friendly" VMR version available now - PM me for the link.

Slate Digital sent me a link to a new beat version of VMR which resolves the conflicts with DP. But they made me promise not to post the link publicly.

I tested it and yes it works.

So if any of you want the link, PM me with your personal email and I'll send you the download link.

I don't have the link. You have to email Slate Digital tech support and they will send you a link.

DO NOT INSTALL THE LATEST VERSION of SLATE VMR

I installed the latest version of Slate VMR, which was released today (12/11). Now when I launch DP, I see this message: "MAS - failure to initialize. 275-10868 {-10868]" DP will not finish launching, I have to force-quit. I removed VMR from my components folder, and downloaded the install...

Spectrasonics Keyscape and Live Performance Mode problems

Today I started a new project and launched an instance of Keyscape, which I hadn't used for about two months. Played a few notes on my MIDI controller into Keyscape..horrible CPU meter spiking, the sound was stuttered, DP became unresponsive. I contacted Spectrasonics tech support and they got back ...

Re: Merge Soundbites results in blank audio file.

Thanks for the replies, everyone. Unfortunately, I am indeed waiting for the background processing to finish, ands verify that it has completely finished. Then I do a "select unused soundbites" in the soundbite window, and delete them, since usually I don't need them anymore. The merged wa...

Merge Soundbites results in blank audio file.

This is a problem that has been happening with increased frequency, and I can't figure it out. I'll do a"Merge Soundbites" on a track with multiple punch ins and outs, and the result is a blank audio file. As the attached pic illustrates. The track labeled "Tele Rhythm Gtr" is bl...

Re: Bias Peak -"Legacy" software question

Just for the record, the very latest version of DSP Quattro 5 sounds as good as BIAS Peak 7 and has more features. And looks and works a lot like Peak did.

Re: Latest version of Amplitude 5 crashing DP

Here anyway Amplitube isn't crashing DP, but it's been jamming the cpu of projects for a while. Doesn't seem to matter what version. Waiting for a meaningful update. Same thing with The MPC software, The MPC is more likely to crash DP here, Amplitube just uses a lot of CPU, unfortunately for me I u...
