DP 5.1 UB Reports

As far as stuck MIDI notes are concerned this is what I've done for marginal improvement. I've removed these drivers from the ~/System/Library/Extensions directory: AppleMIDIFWDriver.plugin - AppleMIDIIACDriver.plugin - AppleMIDIRTPDriver.plugin - AppleMIDIUSBDriver.plugin

Over the past couple of hours I have only had one stuck MIDI note and command + 1 actually worked (for the first time ever?) to stop it. So maybe there's a conflict somehow with DP and these drivers. I don't know for sure and maybe some of you have already tried this. Anyway, I just thought I would put it out there.

Also, I backed the plugins up just in case they would be useful later. I plan on putting them back in one by one to see what happens but I don't have time for that now. The IAC and RTP drivers are definitely important ones but I don't need them now.

I'm a little happier.

BTD bug seems not solved: I have still audio gaps in my bounce, when I work on projects created on 4.6.1... this is very pestering, I must check every time the results, a lot of time lost...
However, when I uncheck "prefill buffers for quick start" in Configure Studio Settings window (or check and uncheck if already unchecked) BTD work correctly...
I work momentarily whit a very simples project, no complex routing and not or few busses. I not still tried whit projects created by DP 5.x.

Someone once posted the theory that keep "wait for note" on creates the stuck MIDI notes in DP. Ever since then I've been very judicious in using "wait for note" and my ubiquitous problem has been rendered rare.

Thanks to everyone contributing to this thread.

Hey Papa:

I'm a member on MakeMusic, too, but I quit posting there because I never get any usable answers. Finale does what it does, and it doesn't do what it doesn't do-- I guess I have an easier time living with Finale's frustrations than with DP's.

I guess I don't mind if someone over there misunderstands the humor in my post. In a sense, I've quit caring as much about Finale to some extent, although I still use it extensively.

DP is getting more complex as time goes by-- the days of hardware samplers are really done, and VI's are here in force. Can't really ignore them the way that I can ignore Finale's idocyncracies. Much of what's going with DP is not only software based, as with Finale, but impacts more greatly on the hardware. DP demands more than Finale, at least the way I use each. I don't worry about VI's and complex MIDI with Finale the way I do with DP.

Alas, FWIW-- someone said it on another thread-- often "The Grass Is Always Greener" with the previous version of some software.

What a quandary.
