I agree!
Works really well for me!
Resizeable TO, No need to print VIs to audiofile before bounce, MW Leveler, Track Comping... all great enhancements. And almost no issues here... I'm a happy camper, rockin' and a-rollin'

I personally am a bit disappointed with the new GUI and where they've moved things. Like moving the zoom buttons way down to the lower right corner of a window... What the *%#@! To me DP 5 is way more dimensional and easy to look at. Oh, well... I'll get used to it. It's just a shame to move things after you've worked on mousing around to specific locations for features for so long and are already fast at those locations. Why move them? Very odd, I think. I've still got 5.13 projects in progress. It's nice to be able to open them in 5.13 and then also work in 6 for newer projects and get that going... Always, keep the old version active. Working great. Also, no problems with 6 thus far. I opened a 5.13 project in 6 and all is good!! The only thing is that most of the plugins knobs are wacky if you try and drag them. They work fine if you just point to the location you want the knob to be at and then click. Working fine for me that way - til they fix the dragging issue.

But, seriously who designed this new GUI. Not immediately happy. All other upgrades were an instant improvement GUI-wise. -not so sure with this one. In some ways it seems backwards in evolution... my 2 pence.

I knew this topic was here somewhere......... buried after 7 pages of DP6 disaster posts.


I like it. Had a few bumps starting out, but everything feels familiar enough to me, and my key commands work, so........... I'll give it a few months of driving and see what happens. Although, I do kind of miss the drop shadows on all of the grafx.

DP 6 is running fine here also, haven't had any issues just the regular growing pains associated with any upgrade. Again the issues can be worked around. At first reading all the posts about the GUI this the GUI that i was worried. It's not really that bad, and not a reason to not use the software.. but thats my 2 cents. i am totally satisfied.. i must say i am looking for the eucon support as i am selling my mackie control setup for a Euphonix mc control and mc mix setup.

You can mix & match AIFF, WAVE, and SDII files as desired. The Automatic Conversion prefs page has these options for "Convert File Format":
- On import
- Whenever the file does not match the project file format
- Never
