Loving it overall, but for some reason I can't seem to change MIDI channels on a VI... I can change outputs on audio tracks, etc, but not on MIDI tracks. Weird...

Ah, yes. None More Black has been cleaned up. Thank you.

But wait... are MIDI CC lanes only available in the Sequence window? Not in the MIDI window? This can't be. Ok, calm down. Read manual...

I guess MOTU didn't like my suggestion to allow Clippings to reside in the Sidebar or at least to float. I mean, I use clippings all day long. Don't want a 2nd monitor or to use my iPad as 2nd display. May have to.

Ok, just initial ramblings.

Sure. For example, I load an instance of Kontakt with 5 MIDI channels, and then want to change the MIDI channel of any of those 5 channels, say MIDI channel 5 to channel 10, there is no response, no pull down menu at all.

With a 5.3.1. Kontakt version (AU version) under LION 10.7.5. it's work fine and I can change every MIDI channel by tracks .
Perhaps a probleme with the recent 5.5 KONTAKT version .

Has DP9 shown in anybody's registered products in their account yet? According to an email I got from Magic Dave he said to check back in 24 hours. But you know sometimes things work out faster than expected.

Thanks. Unfortunately, it seems to be with every VI that I've tried (Stylus, Omni 2, Hive, Kontakt, etc).

I use also HIVE (version 1.0 revision 3514) and it's work fine: I test the demo-version of D.P. 9 and HIVE work fine .

Kontakt 5.5.0.409 au version in OSX 10.9.5 and no problem here. Also no problem with the EW Play engine and their libraries. I wonder what exact version of OSX jlaudon is running?

Interesting. Was it in there automatically or did you have to enter it yourself? And it's the same serial number as DP8 right?

I'm only seeing the electronic delivery option there.

:arrow: Get the boxed and download version directly from MOTU!
Yes, I know but, since the price is no different and click-throughs help support this web site, I will order through Sweetwater when I can. I expect that they'll get back to me tomorrow.
Good point.
Excellent cause.
Click away.

Hopefully they'll come back with good news.

I'm seeing this as well:

Floating works as expected when in full frame? but not full screen.
Floating windows work as expected in OSX 10.10.3
