Re: iLok server down! (and East West Opus vulnerabilty?)

This from EW:
Well, that helped uncover a bug - Opus definitely should run offline and you are right, the current version does not - our developers are looking into it for an update.
Yay! Scandal averted :)

Re: iLok server down! (and East West Opus vulnerabilty?)

Opus introduced a feature that allows Composers Cloud users to download any/all the EW instruments from the internet live, while the project is running. Quite useful. I use this feature all the time. However, I don't recall seeing anywhere that DAWs with Opus installed wouldn't work without an inter...

Re: iLok server down! (and East West Opus vulnerabilty?)

Never mind, the iLok server issue, Opus also doesn’t work if you have no Internet connection! I just tried it. With my Internet connection disabled the Opus plugin will launch, but it hangs when you load an instrument. ….reenabling the internet connection, Opus behaves normally. Could it just be a b...

Re: iLok server down! (and East West Opus vulnerabilty?)

Agreed. That's pretty outrageous that Opus requires an active internet connection, and for the iLok server to be up and running in order to run! FWIW The EW Installation Center now launches for me as does Opus in standalone as well as the plugin....so presumably the iLok server is running again? Btw...

Re: iLok server down!

Possibly explaining why Opus and the EW Installation Center are both stalling. Launching DP today stalled while initiating Opus. I went to check if there was a newer version available, but the EW installation center also stalled. ….although I use an iLok key, not the iLok cloud, so I’m not sure why ...

Re: Plug-in Window Creep when re-opening sessions

I'm pretty sure this has been fixed post v. 11.22. I'm still getting window-creep with one specific window even with the latest version of the DP. If I take the TO out of consolidated windows it grows larger on each subsequent opening of the project. A little weird, but easy enough to deal with. De...

Re: Plug-in Updates Sticky Topic

As far as I know Explorer is the first and only database app that can Spot to DP. Good on Sound Particles for bringing this basic functionality To DP finally. Nice! And it's FREE you say? Hmmmm... wonder how they can do that? I will definitely need to check it out! I think mainly it’s a loss leader...

Re: Plug-in Updates Sticky Topic

I don't think it "spots" per se. You can drag and drop to the timeline in DP Right. Drag and drop is how all databases work. The ability to Spot from the app directly to the Wiper position in a track in DP is the headline here. Spotting is how database apps have always worked with ProTool...

That looks cool. More for music than sound effects it looks like. Does it spot to DP?

Re: Plug-in Updates Sticky Topic

Sound Particles' free database search browser Explorer 2.2 now spots to DP! ...a first for sound databases as far as I know.

Re: iZotope RX 11 is out

Anyway, I just wanted to report that Music Rebalance has indeed been significantly improved. Here's a comparison between RX10 and RX11. I does indeed sound improved. iZotope Rx11 Vs Rx10 Stem Separation Tool - Music Rebalance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tG_3C9vpMIw&lc=Ugx3I91c4V36qLrb5FR4A...

Did you pay $100? I bought RX10 3 months ago and my price to upgrade to 11 seems to be the same as everyone else at $299 :(

Re: iZotope RX 11 is out

I only updated to RX10 recently and I'm very happy with it. RX11 is going to have to offer something pretty spectacular for $299 to entice me to upgrade 3 months after I bought to the RX10 upgrade. There's a public demo later today that I'm going to try to check out https://lappg.com/2024/05/02/may-...
