DP 6:02: Stillwell Plugs Issue
Seems all good here and a tad snappier (really) BUT.....
The stillwell plugin (1073) doesn't seem to working, can't adjust the Eq knobs.
Can someone check whether it's working on your end...

Confirmed. Friggin 6.02 broke all my Stillwell Plugs.kassonica wrote:Seems all good here and a tad snappier (really) BUT.....

(Ending this post now before I totally fly off the handle. It's a good thing I cloned my system before I installed 6.02. Now, I can go back to 6.01, which doesn't work either!)
Newish Mac Pro 8-core
To clarify: Stillwell plugs definitely worked in 6.01.

Re: DP 6.02 is up
Stillwell plugs are working fine here (Transient M, Rocket, Major Tom & Vibe EQ)
I have only test them on my macbook.
There is a bug already present in 6.01, when a Stillwell plugin window is active, there is no more shortcut possible (space bar stop play)
I like already this new dp version and the new feature

Re: DP 6.02 is up
Maybe I should go to 10.5.6? Nah, that wouldn't make much difference, would it?Grigri wrote:Stillwell plugs are working fine here (Transient M, Rocket, Major Tom & Vibe EQ)

I hope you'll find a solution, maybe contact Stillwell forum??

Thanks for that David. That is 1 thing I was waiting on. Off to get the Stillwell plugs....Grigri wrote:Stillwell plugs are working fine here (Transient M, Rocket, Major Tom & Vibe EQ)

Yeah, I'm not really going to do it just yet. Just brainstorming...bayswater wrote:You might want to look at the Apple Discussion groups first, and see what 10.5.6 broke first.superjeezus wrote:

and to answer a previous post, yes--the 'lockout' of the transport when in the Stillwell plug windows is something I have dealt with for a while. No big deal to me. I just want the knobs to turn.

Re: DP 6.02 is up
Not working here.. Same thing, knobs not turning....James Steele wrote: Yes... hopefully becaue it seems that it's not an across the board problem for everyone. Hopefully more Stillwell users can chime in.
All other plugins working well.

Re: DP 6.02 is up
crapola.. well I loaded DP6.02, and Stillwell Rocket comp is dead beans. A project with it already inserted works, however no (big) knobs , or sliders work!! Buttons do.superjeezus wrote:Please let us know if they work for you. Maybe it will give a clue for those of us not working....Tonio wrote: Off to get the Stillwell plugs....

FYI, its in demo mode, and seeing Davids(grigri) post being on OS10.4.6 may be the culprit-at least the difference I see. I did dump DP AU cache since someone reported it killed ST(Sampletank). didn't check that yet though. same results.
Glad I held off purchasing Stillwell....but Rocket Comp sounds so good

Re: DP 6.02 is up
Yeah, I've held off too. But Stillwell seems to be on the ball. I'm sure they'll fix it soon. I'm thinking of getting the Rocket myself. Their prices are hard to beat.Tonio wrote:Glad I held off purchasing Stillwell....but Rocket Comp sounds so good![]()

So far my brief experiences with 6.02:
A bug with Model 12 randomly not responding to MIDI input - not fixed.
A problem I was having with pre-rendering on some VIs - appears to be fixed, but too early to tell.
A problem with one of my old projects that seemed to have random latency compensation screwups - seems to work fine in 6.02, yay!

The new shortcuts window - very cool.
Buggy auto-scroll seems to be fixed.
And that's just after a couple of hours of playing with it.
Happy camper here.

I apologize... I was indeed incorrect. I thought Rocket was working properly in 6.02 but it was not. I must have only been using pre-sets and not done any knob tweaking. The knobs are indeed messed up in DP 6.02. To add to the frustration, I just did a quick check and of course there is no such issue in Logic Express 8.02... and on top of it... Rocket works fine with REAPER... a shareware DAW!!
