Need help converting Opcode Vision files > Performer

I know it is a long shot - but I have a handful of old Opcode Vision files that I would like to convert or at least retrieve the MIDI data from. IF anyone knows how to do this other then the way I know, I'd welcome the help. If anyone still has an old Mac (running system 8.6 or earlier) and an alrea...

softsynth audio samples?

Since MOTU has decided *not* to provide any audio samples of the softsynths perhaps we can post a few to serve as fodder for this discussion. I'm sure most people on here have someplace to post an audio sample, but I'd be willing to make a simple page of some if people want to email them to me: dp5*...

I use VST Wrapper and you can use the same plug in multiple times on the same or other tracks. This was great for me because I have a favorite VST plug that I like to use to add some warmth to track and use multiple instances of it frequently.

Copying Mixes (from Mix Mode) Between Sequences

I would bet that this has been covered before but - I use sequences as a way of creating versions of my songs as I write them in MIDI- however, once I record individual tracks and start using mix mode to monkey with the mix I can no longer do this because DP does not duplicate the mix information in...

Latest Findings

After reading everything here and troubleshooting with posted suggestions an MOTU's (Set up your USB like this: Keyboard to the computer - mouse to keyboard - MIDI Express 128 to keyboard. No other USB should be connected for this test. Do you have the same problems with this USB configuration?) whi...

MIDI Express 128

While I'll allow the USB interface may have expired, it previously, and quite recently, worked flawlessly under different software conditions (10.3.9 & DP 4.11). It seems more logical to assume it is a driver problem or Core Audio. But if it were those problems I would expect more people reporti...

A plague of stuck MIDI notes....

4.61 and Tiger have been a mess for me. My drivers are all updated but I am plagued by hanging MIDI notes. I have gone back and forth with MOTU tech support and all they will tell me is that is seems like an "OS" problem. Neither helpful nor helpful. I did not have this problem before Tige...

Given that you stated you don't much care for Tiger's other capabilities (I too am underwhelmed) I would also recommend sticking with Panther for reasons of stability and cpu usage. I did things a##backwards and upgraded to Tiger, only to discover I have "volunteered" for a $100+ upgrade f...
