Re: My biggest wish for DP12

Wish Number 1: Ability to make a default input and output in the POLAR app. I use POLAR for live looping. I have automated 'saved times' so I can pick 3/4, 4/4, 12/8, 7/4 etc (30 times) and create phasing loops LIVE! But when I switch to another project I lose the ins and outs and have to take time ...

Re: DP as looper pedal?

I use a stream deck and BOME MIDI translator. In BOME, I record mouse movements and clicks to select from my list of saved times. Then I add a key command to the sequence of those movements and assign them to the stream deck. So I have about 25 meters that I can select, also select new pass on the s...

Re: FEATURE REQUESTS

Give an option to Polar to work like a pedal looper.... :dance: You should be able to set this up with a Bheringer FCB1010. That company usually makes cheap knock offs, but the FCB1010 is great, you can assign all of Polars parameters to the footpedals and hopefully have what you need. I use a stre...

Re: Anyone using Polar?

First I used Polar live with MIDI triggering samples. I created a set of remembered times and then switched to them manually to create phasing loops of different instruments and soloed over them. Now, broadcasting on Twitch (as soundpilot) I use a headset and create phasing loops 9/8, 6/4, 14/8 4/4/...

Re: El Capitan 10.11 crashing Audio MIDI setup and DP 9.01

All working now that I switched to the MIDI port on the 8pre. Probably trade in the MTPAV for a 5 port micro-lite though in Canada the store (Long and McQuade) says there is a hold on the shipping of that product until further notice. May trade in the 8pre and MTP for an 8m _ micro lite. MIDI Gear -...

Re: El Capitan 10.11 crashing Audio MIDI setup and DP 9.01

Yep, MIDI - my MIDI timepiece AV crashes the audio MIDI. Also booting with cinema display. Once DP does not respond, unplugging the cinema display, pulling a bunch of folders out of library/audio/plugins brings DP back on my stand alone macbook pro. Then I can quit DP and put all those folders back ...

Gotta be the plugins. :| Isn't there a way to start DP in stripped down mode?

Re: Plogue Bidule & Vienna Ensemble experts, collaborate!

To add to what Marc has listed so clearly, I understand that Vienna-ensemble pro 1-2 is the bus that I assign to instance in DPs mixer. Then out 1-2 goes to (let's say) bus1-2 and then follow the print out 3-4 goes to vienna-ensemble 3-4. This is the way I use internal plugins as well. If I create a...

Re: MIDI Loop recording: new take per loop?

I would love to see this feature in DP. I have only used Polar a little and am always trying to find time to pay with it. I think I can make great use of it BUT a MIDI version would rock. I could make my own multis really quickly. Record multiple passes while changing instruments and then print all ...
