Thanks folks. Very appreciated. We will move it from our DP5 rig to the DP7 then.

We are getting odd behaviour on this macpro in DP 7.02. Installed Alphatrack driver 1.02 and the DP bundle. Do we even need the driver or just the bundle? What versions are you foks using?

Thanks

Here are the details of our whacky behaviour.

We had installed driver 1.20 and the DP control surface bundle 1.01. Got lots of odd behavior in DP. See below. Uninstalled driver 1.2 and installed 1.3.0 driver. Same behavior.

When we select a trk in DP, the AlphaT scribble strip text never shows up. Also, wHen you pull the ALphatrack fader up it immediatley jumps back to the floor (0) even if the dp track has no automation data on it, and the auto play enable is off. The only thing that DOES work is the transport controls. Hmmm.

Oh yeah, AT software is of course set to native.

We just checked and reconfirmed that this unit is working flawlessly on the aforementioned G5 running DP 5.11, OSX 10.4.7
Any ideas?
