Re: Creating a template for mono & stereo mixes... MIDI to a

From various professional books and on line sources. It was recommended that if you can make a mix sound good in mono it will always sound great in stereo.... but rarely vice versa due to phasing and overlapping frequencies. Is a mono mix essentially just having all the audio tracks recorded to one ...

Re: Creating a template for mono & stereo mixes... MIDI to a

What version of DP? Can you articulate your needs a little more? I'm not really seeing what the problem is very clearly. Well I create all my tracks in MIDI first then to audio. I think for the most my template is the way most would create it but my real question comes from how do I start my mix in...

Creating a template for mono & stereo mixes... MIDI to audio

I'm looking to create a go to template for all my MIDI productions. I work first in MIDI and then convert everything to audio once I have everything the way I want it.. I have a bunch of MIDI tracks created already routed to my hardware gear and a few stereo audio tracks created but not assigned to ...

Anyone know why some VI's show up in folders and some don't?

When you pull up a instrument track and then go to select another VI from the window, some instruments show up in folders stating the manufacturer's name and some are just in a list. It seems to be rather random too with some from the same manufacturer in different locations as well ( IK Multimedia ...

Can I delete M5 v1 Library if I have M5 v2?

Just wondering if the same instruments of v1 ( for the most part) are included in the new v2 ? The new Library format seems so much easier to access that I would really like to dump v1 if I can still get the same sounds in the new library...

Anyone know for sure?

THANKS

Loading .nki files. How to just scroll through the programs?

I have a lot of akai sample cds converted to .nki files for Kontakt and I would like to load those into MF2. They load no problem (and rather quickly I might add with great results) however as I scroll through the .nki programs and I come along to a folder that holds the samples to the programs, MF ...

How can I tune my kicks & other things in DP??

Hey - This may seem like an odd request but I have heard more and more about tuning drums to the root of the song. Since I use only samples (not recording any live drums here) I get my sources from all over and I was wondering if there are any plugs or anyway to use a "tuner" to tell what ...

I'm confused about Tiger and DP. Can someone shed some light

I have a rock solid system with 10.3.9 and 4.61 with lots of softsynths and fx plugs. Now if I decide to upgrade to tiger do I have to update all my stuff to the latest updates or since DP is already Tiger ready and I use the plugs in DP as the host and not in standalone mode, do I still have to go ...

How do you think I did on this deal??? G5 options 4 DP

Just purchased a Brand New (stock) DP 2.5 w/ 3 yr applecare for $2030 to my door. I was heavily considering the new DC2.3 which I can get with edu discount for about $2290 (w/o the apple care plan) delivered so that option was very attractive too. In the end I went for the DP because it is still abl...

One more thing, do your plugs and their ability to work or not work in 10.4 vs 10.3 depend on DP (the host) or do I need to worry about each and every VI and plug I have if I make the switch??

See this is what I really wanted to know:) So most of you are not having any known problems going from Panther to Tiger with DP 4.6?? Are most of your plugs working too? I'm looking at getting new G5 but the dual cores are 10.4 only and I'm currently working out of 10.3.9. I've thought about buying ...
