I use Command Arrow, not Option Arrow, but I probably set that in the Command window, and had DP retain the custom commands on its first startup. I assume you could do the same.philbrown wrote:Do Option + Right and left arrow still work to incrementally zoom in and out? I use that so much, it would probably be a dealbreaker for me if that no longer worked.

Pinch zoom on the trackpad will speed things up for those of us who gave up using a potato (I mean mouse - I meant potato) for a MTP2.

I've put Admiral Bumblebee's quick overview of DP 10.1 improvements over at the tutorials section, as it is very helpful.

Re: DP 10.1 out
Is anyone else seeing higher CPU usage on 10.1?
I just updated from 9.5x, and a tune I was working on is now choking, when it wasn't before. Nothing else has changed in the system or sequence.
Granted, this particular tune was close to maxing out at 2048 buffer size, but on 10.1, it just barfs unless I turn off the absurdly CPU spendy IK tape machines. It played fine before.

Re: DP 10.1 out
Well, that's a drag.
My comp is saying 18% total processor usage, but DP is saying it's maxed out. About half the cores aren't even being utilized. I'll never understand the DP processor meter, or why it doesn't use all available cores.
And thus it has always been.

Re: DP 10.1 out
10.1 takes longer to load my (fairly big) template. Also moving tracks and folders takes longer as well, including spinning balls. None of that happened before in 10.01 and 9.52

Re: DP 10.1 out
Holy cow! I just discovered 10.1, and I'm impressed. Lots of features for a .1 release.
I've been wanting (and requesting) MIDI clips for years. Nice to finally see them. And the ability to un-group them is cool.
GUI improvements. Zoom with trackpad. Velocity tool. MIDI editing improvements. Yay!
Thanks, MOTU!

Re: DP 10.1 out
“Pinch to zoom” on my Magic Trackpad (1st gen) isn’t working. It should, per page 331 of the User Guide.
Anyone getting this to work?

Re: DP 10.1 out
Hey there Phil. Are your templates created as DP templates, or just regular DP files you have built from scratch and are using as a template?

Re: DP 10.1 out
We need to do the metering trick we used 40+ years ago. Just put tape over the stinking DP CPU meter so we cant see it.

Re: DP 10.1 out
Small bug I noticed.
When dragging the right end of a MIDI note to extend it, the MIDI note moves to C3 until you let go of the note. When you release it, it moves back to its original pitch.
This is for a single note drag/extension.
