I visited the DP rep in LA with my issue and he could not understand or think it was logical to have the volume layer mirror the faders levels before you actually insert info. Why would you want the program to insert auto data on it's own? I don't want ANY automation data written anywhere unless I ...

This is how DP works. No auto data until you insert it. To do this across multiple tracks use a snapshot. Only snapshot the data you need though. No point generating a lot of unnecessary data. On a single track just enable auto record, press play, and click on the fader. You now have volume data at...

hkc116 I've been using DP about 10 hours a day now since changing over from PT in January. I am constantly turning things on and off. DP does not work like PT. This will be frustrating to you as it was and still is at times for me. DP definitely requires more "moves" to do some simple task...

Re: Can You Edit This Way?

When you're trying to move a soundbite or MIDI event in the editor and you simply want it to nudge to the Bar Line... like in ProTools Grid mode or with Logic it's just a click on the event. In DP you have to either quantize it, or go to the location point and type in the new location, or use the s...

Re: 4.7 Wishlist

-I would like when in grid mode, everything snaps to grid
-Edits in the various layer modes (e.g. pan, volume etc.) only effect the layers
-Default starting points for anything that can be automated
-Streamline all features that take more than 2 steps

Re: Setting sequence to soundbite tempo

Thanks for the info! I do have a cymbal roll up front to introduce the song but I selected the whole soundbite. I will make sure it lines up in DP and then try. I also will try peak. Thanks.

Do you like DP over PT?
