Hello, I got the demo version of DP8 up and running! I have some downtime to try it out. Everything is running rock solid and I love everything about the new version! However, When I load up a video, I can do Firewire DVCPRO NTSC, but it gives me a quick error saying - "Your external device doe...

Hello, In DP 7, the movie audio would go out of the Line Out of my Mac pro. Basically I took a headphone 1/8" cable that split into 2 (L/R) 1/4" Cables. That ran into my mixing board (analog in) and it gave me two faders - one for Dialog, one for Temp music. This is how i've always done it...

Cool! Glad to hear it's all good! I've been messing around with DP8 all day today and it's been great! VEP is finally rock solid (timing wise) But haven't had anything crazy happen. The only crash was when I Cleared out a movie, but I read in another thread that is a known bug and the work around wo...

Hello, I have some down time and I wanted to try out DP 8. I'm downloading the trial now! Fingers crossed! I'm still on my ole' trusty Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my Mac Pro. and actually DP 7.24 is working great. I just hate the whole no Auto Latency compensation with VEP. Hence my move to DP 8. Is ther...

Cool! Thanks for the replies.

They are using ProTools on the other end.

The manual was helpful in understanding the settings.

Thanks again!

Hello all, I'm handing in cues/stems/songs to the re-recording mixer for this film i've been working on for the past few months very soon. He wants me to make an OMF that contains all the stems (5.1 and stereo) that i've made as well as stems for all the songs i've put into the film. This is kinda m...

No, you don't need memory cycle on. Ah! So I guess one way to use it would be to set the start of the memory cycle at bar 1 and the end way after the song? And just leave it on while recording? Another thought - It seems that RAM would have to be used for that kind of feature. I wonder how the 32bi...

Quick Question: For Punch Guard to work, do you need to have the Repeat markers on? All the demos I see it has the little "repeat signs" on - meaning DP will loop that section. Does it work without that turned on? I'm about to get DP8. just curious since we're on the topic! Thanks! M7

I'm interested too! You can't leave us hanging like that!! haha

Marc, a couple of quick "?"'s about your setup, if I may? 1. When you speak of "a CAT 5e or better cable and a gigabit connection.", are you going thru a router, or just connecting the two Macs directly with a single Cat5e cable? 2. How are you getting DP MIDI to that 2nd machin...

Are you talking about using DP on 2 computers and having them synced??? Or are you talking about DP on 1 and hosting VI's on another? - This is the more typical situation. I have 1 mac pro (you want this to be the fastest processor speed of your 2 machines) just hosting DP and maybe rewire Ableton L...

Just curious.. Is the No Output to FireWire thing a bug? Or did they purposefully take that feature away? I use a Canopus to output to my TV.. it's old school, but It has worked great for me ever since DP4.. I guess I could get a new video card with 3 outputs, and do a mini-DVI to HDMI out of it... ...

Hello, I'm working on a project that is really pushing my Mac to the limit. I have 2 mac pros, 1-hosting DP. 2nd - Hosting VEP 5. DP7.24, 10.6.8, plenty of RAM. Both 2x2.66Ghz Quads For 90% of my projects, everything is awesome. For this one, I'm getting DP "hanging" - not actually crashin...
