I recently used the WAVES La 2a plugin and was LESS than impressed by it. The Leveler sounded SO much better.

Too many great things to list. Along with the major changes, additions and improvements, there are many smaller changes that just make working so much more enjoyable and easy. You're going to love it! Oh, and DP Control on the iPad is simply fantastic.

c-ya,

Thanks for all of your suggestions. As a long time user of Motu products (since 1987), I have never gone so long between upgrades and was overwhelmed with where to start. Thanks to you all, I am in good shape. DP 7.21 arrived in today's mail and I will be digging in shortly, beginning with the Comp tool, the Track folders, the Proverb (with the help of the Simplicity M7 verbs), Leveler, analog chorus, etc. I also think that being able to put the EQ and Compressor in the mixing console will be a very useful feature for me. And the new skins... I look forward to having some new visual options. And I can't forget the vertical zoom feature for the TO - I can't wait to test that out. Thanks again and I will be back when I come up for air....

Greatest thing to do with your clothes on: flying through DP with a Mighty Mouse. Scrollgasm!
