I've pretty much given up using DP on windows for new projects, but I still have a lot of old DP projects to open up from time to time. Yesterday I decided to run LatencyMon while using DP. Strangely the processor spikes I have been complaining about barely happen if I run DP and Latencymon at the s...

I'm running DP on both platforms on a new dual boot machine and I tend to hammer the CPU with a lot of plugins. I have a very fast box and can't notice a difference _now_ but getting optimized on windows for DP took some time for me and might not be worth it to you. I came up on the other side and ...

I can't find any correlation between DP's performance spikes and any monitors outside the program showing an issue on the PC usage. I don't have any problems with VI's unless a MIDI track is record-enabled and then I can get spikes while performing MIDI live to thru a VI. Basically anything that can...

Yeah it's the performance meter in DP spiking not my actual computer getting maxed out or anywhere even close to it. I could ignore it visually but hearing audio disruptions every time it spikes has grown old. We'll see if there are any improvements in version 10.13 just released. In the meantime I'...

Thanks Michael. I know certain plugins cause more cpu spikes than others. I'm constantly finding work arounds, but I'm feeling like DP is just not meant for windows. Do you have experience on both OS and can confirm given the same hardware specs that DP performs equal or close to equal between osx a...

Thanks for the links. To be clear I've been using Digital Performer on Windows 10 since August 2018. It's still usuable, but I thought the performance decrease when I switched to windows was just the fact that my 2014 I7-4770k desktop (former hackintosh) was getting old. When I got my new laptop in ...

Peformance meter spiking in DP is a chronic thing for me on windows 10 even though my actual CPU meter is usually less than 20%. When my main desktop PC was set up as a hackintosh, Digital Performer performance meter was way more efficient and stable. I just got a new top of the line Dell XPS laptop...

I want to replace a real live kick drum performance with a sampled kick drum. Is there a way in DP without purchasing additional software to convert the audio rhythmic data into MIDI data? It seems like a simple process just not sure if it can be done. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you.

I just bought a macbook with leopard installed on it. I have DP 5.13 installed and it works fine except 3rd party plugins such as Native Instruments Guitar Rig is not showing up in the effect inserts menu within the mixing board. It seems like I have installed everything properly. What can I do to g...
