Re: DP 9.1 is here

I downloaded 9.1 today and did a bit of work on a session. Didn't have time to give it much of a workout, but it does seem more responsive and, er, less "beta-y." On the negative side, they did not fix a bug that I find to be very maddening: When you click on a drop-down menu, like Takes f...

Re: D.P. 9.02 dispo on MOTU Site

I like Mac OS 10.11/El Capitan - working great for me with DP 9.02 over the last couple of months. I had been running OS 10.8.5 for a couple of years and was really happy with the stability, but there were a couple of things I wanted to install that required a newer OS. First I went to 10.10/Yosemit...

Re: Clip Gain like in ProTools?

Like Supersonic, I use bite gain in DP all the time, and I have a hot key (Shift-Cmd-B) assigned to it. I don't know why there isn't a default hot key for it, because it's an important feature and is really cumbersome if you have to get to it through menus. And as I think others have mentioned, chan...
