DP 8 detecting Instrument

Post by hxmusic »

Hi gang. I'm new here and don't use my DP nearly as much as I wish I could.

Sorry if the terms I use are not correct. I'm still learning.

A couple of my instrument tracks are not being recognized when I go to add them to my project. DP is finding my Komplete sounds, but not Ivory or Sample Tank.

Any advice on how to fix this? Thanks.

Are you launching DP in 32 or 64 bit? You might want to add your machine and OS specs, etc.

Thanks.

I'm on a 2x2.4 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon
6 GB 1066 MHz DDR3

Recently upgraded from DP 4.6 to DP 8. I'm assuming 64. How can I verify?

if the OP is in ML 10.8,he's in 64bit.
from my understanding 10.8 only works in the 64bit kernel,we discussed this a month or 2 ago.
Sampletank is 32bit so you will not see it in the 64bit kernel,some users have gotten it to work via jBridge others like me haven't.
I don't use Ivory so that's one I'm not sure about.

I believe you can still run 32 bit apps in ML. You just can't change how the machine boots.
