Changes and new features
For a comprehensive list of new features, please refer to New Features in DP, available in Digital Performer's Help menu.
Enhancements introduced in version 9.1.3
Version 9.1.3 provides improvements, optimizations, and refinements. Here are just a few highlights:
• Improved Hardware Insert plug-in latency detection. Added level meters and fixed a bug when pasting settings.

• Improved support for Softube when tracks are reordered.
• Improved support for Melodyne.
• Improved latency compensation for VST2 plug-ins.
• Improved support for VEP and virtual instruments that have variable latency.
• Improved support for the RME Fireface driver.
• Fixed a bug where certain plugins (MX4, for example) would not get numbers appended to side-chain bus names.
• Fixed a bug where erasing a selection containing soundbites with fades would sometimes cause a click.
• Fixed a bug where editing the head of a soundbite with a fade on it’s tail would sometimes cause a click.
• Fixed an issue where chased MIDI events would not update faders and other graphical indicators.
• Fixed a bug where the main counter format was not being restored when opening a file in some cases.
• Fixed a bug where Wave files with time-stamps of > 0x7FFFFFFF would not spot correctly.
• Fixed an issue where pasting at an insertion point in a pop-edited soundbite would not place the data at the correct location.
• Fixed a bug where deleting chunks with the track selector showing could cause a crash.
• Fixed some popup menu behavior.
• Fixed a bug that could lead to a crash when edge-editing MIDI notes following the deletion of pitch bend data.
• Fixed an issue where using the scale tool on soundbite volume would not update playback such that the modification could be heard.
• Fixed a crash that could occur when closing various editor windows.
• Fixed an issue with recalling Mixing Board layouts.
• Improved mouse tracking when editing pitch bars.
• Fixed an issue where including Film Scoring Events in a movie bounce could cause frame rate irregularities.
• Fixed an issue with code signing the Windows installer.
Enhancements introduced in version 9.1.2
Version 9.1.2 provides many improvements, optimizations, and refinements. Here are just a few highlights:
• Fixed a bounce to disk crash caused by an issue involving non-active VST effects.
• Fixed a problem where audio would sound choppy after inserting a post-fader effect. • Fixed a crash that could occur if a clipping window was closed while one of its clippings was being auditioned.
• Fixed a crash involving Melodyne.
• Fixed an issue where project VIs would not work correctly when selected as MIDI metronome.
• Optimized code that could impact opening projects with a large number of tracks.
• Fixed an issue where the Ivory Synthogy would hesitate and glitch when beginning playback in pre-gen mode.
• Fixed an issue where recording MIDI data into a track with sustain CC could clear the live state of the sustain pedal.
• Fixed an issue where overdubbing notes in a MIDI track would halt sounding notes already on that track.
• Fixed a case where track sysex data could cause a crash during playback.

"Allow more than 32,000 MIDI tracks in a project."

Damn!!! That arrived just in time for me!!

(I was just reaching close to that limit. Nice to have the headroom!) :mrgreen:

Have a look at the Logic fix lists. Maybe 20 times longer, but I guess there's a reason for that :lol:

I too was beginning to feel a little cramped :) I was just on the line with Celemony on the crashes of Melodyne Studio in DP 9.12 and was told to use previous versions for now. I guess that solves that :). Altiverb was also quite buggy. I hope it straightens out with this version.

:shock:
Let me guess... You're using one track per articulation per library of the same instrument... :)

And I thought my template was too big...

At least now, maybe the guy who created that composition with 10,000 tracks a few years ago will go for the 32,000 tracks now!
I mean, NOW we're talking :)

That list also includes the fixed bugs for earlier DP9 versions. The new update's list is not as long.

I just make a little mark near the note and the musicians know what to do. You do have to feed them, however.

No way! I don't.

If I did, my template would be as big as yours. :)
I prefer using one track per instrument per library. I use Keyswitches and CCs to change articulation samples/parameters.

Personally, using one track per articulation feels to me like the old ugly Gigastudio days, where doing that was the only option available. I remember I hated having to "hunt" the score to find melodic lines... Like my flutes... they used to have like 10 tracks, and it was horrible following a simple melodic line across 10 or more staves in the score!

But A LOT of people work like you do and they seem to love it too. Whatever works :)

Ok... who has tested it? Does it back save if I need to go back to 9.12?

I swear, I've been trying to stop! (It was when I ended up with 300 tracks just for
snare rim shots that I began to sober up a little. Don't let this happen to you!!!)

(...and I am so full of it sometimes, aren't I?) :roll:

[Believe me, I don't think ANYBODY works like I do! Perish the thought!!! One person is already more than enough!]
