Re: DP 6.02 is up
That reminds me, Tom, and I say this quite often, but... bring back the "baloon help" feature please, MOTU.
There if you needed it (through a key combo), and not there the rest of the time. Oh, and super-informative too.

Re: DP 6.02 is up
Could well have been, Baysey, but I've always thought it was one written by MOTU. Either way, how tough could it be to re-implement it?

Re: DP 6.02 is up
Can't you still click on an object in DP, after hitting Command-?, and get help for that object? That USED to be a feature in DP. I haven't used the internal help in so long that I don't know if it's still there.

Re: DP 6.02 is up
I don't know, Shoosh, but the old combination was (I think) shift-option-command, and it spawned cute little dialogue bubbles that disappeared as one released the keys, as you'd remember. I suspect the help feature you mention has "always" been there in any case.

Re: DP 6.02 is up
Just checked. Now, by typing COMMAND-/ (which is the question mark without the shift key) you get a help page for the currently active window. Context sensitive, but not down to the individual component level. The page, then, has all the features of that window listed.

Re: DP 6.02 is up
Thank you, Shoosh; that's how I remember this feature.
I still preferred the ol' balloons, not least because, as you implied, their content was object/component-specific.

I have found the same issue. Does anyone know if it is possible to convert the sample rate during bounce to disk like it use to do?
Thanks,

Re: DP 6.02 is up
The recent postings showing much improved results for DP's SRC quality may have something to do with it -- looks like DP might be using CoreAudio functions now. It may be difficult to integrate that with the export function.jnunally wrote:I have found the same issue.
