Re: Disappearing TAKES

Takes are really useful in MIDI tracks when experimenting with a different approach. It allows you to quickly and conveniently grab a specific measure or phrase from a previous version and paste it in place into a newer layer. If you use “duplicate take” you can experiment without worry. I have had ...

Re: DP11 and M1 Mac Mini

If the project is symphonic in nature, You might hit a peak of how many samples you can load. with some of the really deeply sampled orchestral instruments, you may need to render the woodwinds while you’re working on the brass, and then render the brass while you’re working on the woodwinds, purgin...

Re: DP11 and M1 Mac Mini

I’ve been running DP 11. 04 on the new M1 Mac Mini with about 90 mono audio tracks (24k) and several multitimbral virtual instruments.

I’ve been using performer since around 1986 and I can tell you that I’ve never had so much fun as this year.

Spectrasonics is M1 native, but Kontakt is not. Question: How are you running DP... under Rosetta2 or Native?

Thanks for the encouragement! :smash:
Running natively. 🤠

Re: Which new Mac Pro is optimal for a DP DAW?

I’ve been running DP 11 beautifully on my m1 Mac mini under Big Sur.
kontakt and spectrasonics are working perfectly.
It’s the best, smoothest, most stable system I have ever had with performer since 1986.
Only drawback: 16 gigs of RAM.

Re: Using snapshots with MIDI plug ins

Clever indeed! I had earlier tried automating in effects record mode but no automation data was written into the track, or any behaviors acted upon. I also just tried your clever suggestion of automating the mutes, but still to know avail. These things work so easily with audio effects but there mus...

Using snapshots with MIDI plug ins

When setting offsets for a MIDI track using the timeshift plug-in, I see that the snapshot option appears to be available in the effects window. However, I have had zero luck with getting any information to appear in any of the edit windows using the snapshot feature with the MIDI time shift plug in...

Re: cc10 lost it's "special" status as MIDI pan

Is it just me, or do I remember correctly? Didn’t the view filter used to list mini volume and MIDI pan up at the top as separate items?

I don’t remember having to go down to the continuous controller menu to put them on a list.

Re: cc10 lost it's "special" status as MIDI pan

Yes, I do remember seeing that in the manual a while back. I couldn’t find it with a search of the PDF, but I did look in the mini menu as you recommended, and there was continuous data editing preferences. And just on a lark, I clicked the default button, and pan reappeared. So it really is intende...

cc10 lost it's "special" status as MIDI pan

Having upgraded from DP8 to DP11, I'm not sure exactly when cc10 lost it's "special" status as MIDI pan. I may have missed it years ago. It is no longer an easy shortcut in the view filter, or when drawing data in the MIDI window. One must select it from the list of 127 possible cc options...

Re: Looks like I’ll get the intel Mac mini

That is my situation. Bad timing.
I may have to use logic for a few months on the m1 unless DP is stable in Rosetta.
