What are the precise file paths for moving all my keyboard shortcuts, colours, themes, window sets etc from DP 10 (Intel Mac) to DP 11 (silicon Mac)?
I can't seem to get this to work as I was able to in the past with previous computers and versions of DP.
Thanks
Max

Re: Copying All My DP Preferences / Settings from one Mac to another
If I was at my Mac, I would give you the path but I’m on the other coast through Friday. If no one posts it, ask MOTU.

Well, I'm not too good with that either, but to start off with I used the little button in DP's Theme Settings that takes you to the folder in which the theme files are stored to find the first one:
Themes are stored here:
<hard drive>/Library/Application Support/MOTU/Digital Performer/Themes/
I think you'll find the other stuff you need here:
<hard drive>/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.motu.DigitalPerformer/
Also your Effect Categories if you made any as well as the plugins caches are here:
<hard drive>/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.motu.MotuAudioSystem/
But also generally in that same Preferences folder, there's several things that start with "com.motu..." that might be of interest.
