Re: Newbie trying out DP ... some clearance?

Late to the party... For a simple audio/loop browser that works on Windows and Mac, I use: AudioExplorer - part of SoundLib's free studio utils: https://www.soundlib.com/studio/ Unfortunately, it doesn't support REX files. I use it when I get a new sample packs and want to quickly find a few samples...

Re: Creating a MIDINAM File for a Roland JD-Xi

Thank you James!

This is what I was looking for - a way to get started as opposed to BBEdit and XML files. If I get a working MIDINAM file, I will post it!

Thanks again!

All the best,

Rich

Creating a MIDINAM File for a Roland JD-Xi [SOLVED]

Good morning: After doing a little research, it looks like I'm going to be heading down a rabbit hole for a few days to do this.. So, I'm looking for some advice, hints, etc. I was amazed how hard it was to find information on creating MIDINAM files. Most of the posts are over a decade old and most ...

Re: Presets/Patches for Softube Modular - can't find/don't w

Thanks for the help! I was able to use VSTHOST to export all the presets into .fxp files. I then copied them into the the presets directory: C:\Users\xx\Documents\MAS Presets\Softube\Modular [10 out] Started DP and I can now see the Presets in the local directory. They seem to work. I will let MOTU ...

Re: Presets/Patches for Softube Modular - can't find/don't w

Thanks for the reply! I will try this over the weekend when I get a break.

At least the presets are working for the AU on Mac. Just want to get them working under Windows.

Thank you again for the thread with tips!

All the best,

Re: Returning to the Fold... this time on PC

@bayswater - I was using Logic Pro X under OS X, but have just purchased DP 9.5, so I can run the same DAW on my portable system (Windows) as my main system (Mac OS). :D I use Reason 10 on both Windows & Mac OS X for 'ideation'. I like being able to have the flexibility of not being tied down. ....

Re: DP9 crashes on exit, ASIO stuck

Good evening: A couple things come to mind... Is your Windows system fully up-to-date with all current chipset & hardware drivers? (thought I would ask) Does Windows audio work correctly with other programs like iTunes, Audacity, YouTube in a browser, etc. Have you tried ASIO4ALL? I've done some...

Re: Presets/Patches for Softube Modular - can't find/don't w

Good morning: A quick update -- the presets/patches for Softube modular do not show up in DP 9.5 under Mac OS when using the VST format. However, under Mac OS, if the AU format is used, the presets/patches do show up. I would say, there is something awry in the way DP is handling VSTs with both Wind...

Re: Omf trying to get dp3 files to dp9

Hi: I know this is an older thread. But if you haven’t solved it yet, here’s an idea. If you have a buddy with a Mac or access to one install DP 9.51 on it open the DP 3 projects and then export to DP 9 format. I would be pretty sure that DP on Windows could open then. Used to do this (find a versio...

Presets/Patches for Softube Modular - can't find/don't work

Good morning! I'm using DP 9.5 on Windows 10 and am testing/validating that my VSTs all work correctly. I am having a hard time with Softube Modular -- I cannot find the presets/patches within DP 9.5. [FYI, it works with no issues in Reason 9.5 and Reason 10 under Windows 10] There doesn't seem to b...

Re: Thinking of getting Absynth 5...

Good morning: Personally, I think Absynth is awesome! It has the ability for some very complex, moving and organic sounds. However, as you are probably aware, it will require programming and experimentation, if you don't like the presets. If you are in to sound design and enjoy creating different au...

Re: ASIO Error with DP9 Demo HELP!

So, I [think I may have] solved my Windows Audio problem and you may want to try this... I installed ASIO4ALL and am using it with both the Realtek (built-in) interface and my Teac USB audio interface. I am now getting glitch-free output when playing audio in DP 9.5. The default Windows audio driver...

Re: ASIO Error with DP9 Demo HELP!

That is what I concluded about the Realtek ASIO and DP 9.5

Did you reach out to MOTU support? I would be interested in their thoughts.

That's next week's project for me.

Re: ASIO Error with DP9 Demo HELP!

Good morning: I've done some more investigation with a few interfaces/drivers (ASIO and WIndows internal) on my Dell laptop. ASIO seems to be VERY driver dependent. FYI: I'm evaluating DAWs that run on both Windows and Mac OS X (Reason is my scratchpad/quick production DAW). The PC is for mobile pro...
