I'm downloading it now just because of that. If we can really have all those buses I will be able to improve my template and be more liberal with my Bundles usage

It was so hard to keep everything with only 100 stereo buses like before.

Re: Digital Performer 9.52 released today
Some users on the FaceBook page are having problems. Like I, the issues affect 9.51 and 9.13 after 9.52 is installed. Thanks to APFS, I was able to roll back my system to before the update and verify this.
My 9.52 problem was the symptom of corrupt audio I received from another studio and not the culprit so I’m keeping it on my system this time. Having stripped and built the headers, it works great.
I had problems with DP 7.2x not opening old files when 7.01 did. Again, the problem was my files and it was 7.12 that showed me how to fix them. That was a royal ain that took me a week to fix—this was nothing by comparison.

In addition to the new features outlined above, version 9.5.2 also introduces the following enhancements:
• Allow studio configurations of up to 1024 stereo busses.
• Allow adding up to 1024 bundles in one go.
• Improved efficiency for projects using Quicktime movies as Quicktime-related threads are terminated for inactive Chunks.
• Improved click stability in Countoff and Countoff-Wait modes.
• Added sorting code to work around the fact that macOS High Sierra is no longer guaranteed to sort files and folders in alphabetical order.
• File import now does a case-insensitive check of file extensions when deciding whether the type is allowable. • Added option to reveal Chunks in the Chunks window after importing via the "Import" and "Load” menus.
• Fixed a bug preventing track folder hierarchies from being preserved when dragging a sequence from the chunks window into the tracks overview or sequence editor.
• Fixed a bug where opening successive effects windows could leave the effect GUIs offset from the parent window.
• Fixed a bug that intermittently prevented plugin bypass UI elements (bypass button in plugin GUI, italicized name in insert strip, etc) from reflecting the
true state of the plug-in.
• Fixed a bug preventing ProVerb to correctly display the state of the bypass button.
• Movie audio is now silent when its output is set to "none”.
• Fixed a bug where the submenus to send movie audio output to new bundles or new aux tracks would not appear.
• Set Movie Start Time can now be assigned to a command.
• Fixed a bug that would cause exported plug-in MIDI outputs to be duplicated.

Amazing that a boneheaded formatting error has caused so much confusion. I had to read it a couple of times before i figured it out.

Re: Digital Performer 9.52 released today
I don't know... This update feels snappier, and DP seems to be more agile in general.
Also, track addition and deletion seem even faster than in the last update, and this really pleases me a lot!
If this is a sign of what to expect from DPX, MOTU will score a homerun with it
