Re: using 896 analog outputs

Maybe I'm dense, but I still don't understand why there are 8 analog outputs on the back of the 896. If they have have a signal I could run them somewhere to monitor them somehow. If they don't, then how would they be used? Thanks You are certainly not dense. One use for the 8 outs would be during ...

Re: using 896 analog outputs

I can't speak for Sonar, but I believe that in DP, when using the 896, you can monitor all 8 inputs (with latency). I still use a hardware mixer in my setup, so I've set up the 896 as follows: 8 channel XLR snake for mics. Main out's of 896 to channels 9/10 on the hardware mixer. Inputs 1 & 2 of...

Re: MOTU 896 1st gen pops, glitches & dropouts! - RESOLVED!

Well, it took me what... 2 months to get around to buying a card??? Anyhow, I did finally get tired of moving projects onto and off of my itsy bitsy internal drive. I wasn't impressed with the stuff New Egg had to offer so I went to my old standby company - OWC. Card info - ADS Technologies PYRO Fir...

Re: DP randomly beeps/pings when open

When you say "Everything loads", do you mean you are loading up a project in DP? As far as I know, DP has never beeped, pinged or anything like that, but sometimes plug-in companies build in beeps, pings, or bursts of white noise to their demo plug versions. This is to remind you that you ...

Re: Anybody doing cross-DAW collaborations with Cakewalk/Sonar?

I have a friend who has Sonar Home Studio Edition. We also want to exchange files and it *would* be easy, but the Home Studio Edition of Sonar does not support OMF Export like DP. If it did, or if you have a higher end version of Sonar, you should be able to do an OMF export from either app and it s...

Re: PreSonus releases a cross-platform DAW

Interesting. I own and actually enjoy using Mackie Tracktion 2 from time to time, but if you want to see an example of a Company Run Forum at it's worst... Also been playing with the demo of Reaper and if they keep developing it for the Mac side, with frequent updates, then they just might be on to ...

Re: Guitar speaker cab question

FYI... I just picked up a (used) Avatar 1 X 12" cab with a Celestion Vintage 30 Hellatone in it. I've used several amps to power it - Everything from a Blackheart Little Giant 5 watt, to an Orange Tiny Terror 15 watt, and a vintage Vega amp which puts out about 25 to 30 watts (2 X 6L6 power tub...

Re: 6.02 Bounce to disk is pretty screwed!!?

even when i am not selecting VI's or MIDI to bounce and just trying to bounce audio out PLAY reloads and then crashes DP! Would this PLAY you refer to be the VI from EastWest maybe? We're seeing some problems with this VI over at the Mac OS X Audio forums also. Try removing PLAY from your plug-ins ...
