Re: Mac Studio issues, latency

Thanks for chiming in Mike. To be clear my performance issue aren't related to VEPRO7.
I have a 4TB Crucial X8 SSD drive that is super fast.

Mac Studio issues, latency

I recently migrate from my 2008 Power Mac to a Mac Studio. I run most of my samples off SD drives. I also use VEPRO7 triggering some of my samples off a PC although I will be trying to keep everything locally see how that goes but doesn't look to promising at the moment. After a few months of runnin...

Motu M4 - Can't record guitar...

Ok this is rather embarrassing. You'd think I could figure this out but I've tried everything. I'm almost done migrating to DP11 and a Mac Studio. I had to upgrade my interface and got an M4. No issue until today when I tried to record some guitar. I get input signal on the M4 (I will hear my guitar...

Re: Updates for some stock-plugins ?

I do agree a slew of MOTU plug-ins could use a tune up and a face lift but the question is would you really use them then?
The only one I really use is the MW EQ.

Navigation scroll customization

I’ve been doing a fair amount of video editing these past few years using Da Vinci Resolve. Really love the navigation in that program and when I come in DP I find it frustrating that it doesn’t work the same way. I would like to use: Command + Scroll for up or down the timeline Option + Scroll for ...

Re: Seeking new ideas / techniques for scoring with DP

Thanks for the details! The articulation manager is on my list of things to dive in. I did see the new MIDI/VI tracks combo. I'm not sure yet if I'll go that route in tweaking my template. I do like the idea of using less space if there is no downside to functionality . I'm excited about DP supporti...

Re: Seeking new ideas / techniques for scoring with DP

I use it a lot for solo piano projects. It has a lot of potential. The Song window works only for the simplest stuff, and you'll quickly meet its many frustrating limitations. It could be so much better if MOTU invested a little time and effort into it. As it is now, it is half-baked and dated; it ...

I've been approaching my work like you, Marc. - One Project per Cue or Song/Composition - Never used DP Songs - Never used DP Clips As such, I'll not offer any answers to your questions except to advise that you will find your new Mac blows your old Mac Pro out of the water with its power and respo...

Seeking new ideas / techniques for scoring with DP

I'm finalizing my migration to a MAC Studio and upgraded from DP9 to DP11. I have a bit of downtime right now so I'm catching up on the latest features and improvements as well as re-evaluating my workflow and template. Here's the way I've been doing things. I typically spot the film in DP, using ma...
