Any word on DP10.1 update?

[Helen]

Just wondering if anyone here has heard anything about the update/fix for DP 10.0. The last thing I can find is from sometime in March, and it was, "coming soon." Has anyone talked to tech support lately?

And to everyone here: Thank you for all the answers/help! You guys are the best, and one of the reasons I have stayed with DP through the thick and thin times.

Anything you hear here is purely speculation. Even the beta testers don't know when it will be released (at least not the ones I know) and I wouldn't expect any employee at MOTU to spill the beans.

Some folks look at the history of releases and the timing of the fixes, but I don't know that is such a reliable way to estimate such matters.

All that said, I'm guess it will be before Christmas, but I've been wrong before... lol

Ah, well. I will keep checking at MOTU.com. Thanks for answering, MLC. I appreciate that it takes time.

Travis Hagan, one of the CSR's at MOTU, told me it was "coming very soon."

No specific date, but apparently it is close to being finished.

On April 18 a Tech Note mentioned they were "wrapping up the beta". So any time now. I'm definitely ready too.

[cuttime]

It's there now.

Yay! ...wow, I wish Helen had asked sooner Coolest update number possible too: "10.01"

I second that!

Just as long as that’s not also the date of the release.

Weirdly, the Creation date is April 22. WTH? Anyway, it's quite a long list....

Enhancements introduced in version 10.01

Version 10.01 introduces the following improvements:

• Added a preference to completely disable tracks overview wiper snapping (Preferences > Editing > Tracks Overview).
• Beat snapping honors the command key to toggle the snap state as you drag.
• Cancel run command by hitting the (shift-space) key again. This preserves the search text for next time.
• Applying a track layout preset hides tracks that did not exist at the time the preset was created.
• If saving an old Digital Performer document will upgrade it to a newer file format, the user will be reminded of this and given a chance to use "Save As..." if backward compatibility is required.
• Added an option to allow DP to display audio meters post-pan (Play and Record -> Audio Options -> Audio metering is post-pan).
• The maximum bus count is again 1024.
• Welcome window fixes: The news column now opens. Fixed a display glitch in the news show/hide button. Fixed a problem with the drop shadows associated with each individual news item. When you're not on the network, there is no 'Video Tutorials button.
• The consolidated window’s sidebar panel selection menu is now alphabetical within the logical subgroups.
• Reduced audio glitching when reordering tracks. Now a glitch will only occur if master track priorities need to be resolved.
• Added string to value conversion to VST2 and VST3 plug-in formats.
• Removed the requirement that an AU plug-in be able to do string to value conversion in order to use value to string conversion. The behavior when viewing and editing effect automation in DP is now, if value to string conversion is available, it will be used. If string to value conversion is not available, events will not be editable by typing in new values.
• Fixed a bug where a VST3's processor state could be restored to bogus values.
• Fixed an issue with all VST2/3 and AU plug-in formats, where examination could get blocked if the plug-in being examined output too much diagnostic text (Fixes exam of GForce M-Tron and possibly others).
• Improved the way we send automation to VST3 plug-ins
• Fix redraw problems in the "Apply Plug-in" window (macOS 10.11 only).
• Fixed an issue where VCA masters would not control tracks with surround outputs.
• Fixed an issue where muted tracks controlled by VCAs could be distorted during playback.
• Fixing beat detection algorithm so it handles very small audio files (less than 0.1 seconds in length), this was crashing DP.
• Improved Clips Window loading time when used with large numbers of tracks.
• Fixed a bug where the Clips window would appear to allow clip management for temporary take tracks.
• Fixed a crash when dragging an item over the Clips Window when no tracks are displayed.
• Fixed a crash that could occur when dragging the scroll bar in the clips window track selector if the clips window was created outside of the consolidated window.
• Fixed a graphical glitch that could occur when scrolling horizontally in the clips window.
• Fixed a bug where revealing the track selector in the Clips Window would make right-most edge of the window unreachable if the track selector was set to open inside of its edit window.
• Fixed a bug where the Clips Window track grid would be the wrong width after popping it into the Consolidated Window while the track selector was showing.
• Fixed a bug where MIDI bindings bound to clips in the clips window wouldn't work if one or more v-racks preceded the playchunk in the chunk list.
• Fixed a crash that could occur when closing a document containing more than one sequence with MIDI event bindings for its clips
• Fix unpredictable behavior when using the Content Browser's back and forward buttons.
• Fixed an issue where the fade resolution system was not allowing asymmetrical cross-fades.
• If you delete the end off a soundbite with a fade, the fade is preserved. This behavior more closely matches DP 9.
• Fixed bugs that could result in fades not being created when the soundbite is off-screen.
• Fixed a crash bug that could occur when performing an Insert Measures where the split/insert point intersected one or more sound bites.
• Fixed a few issues with Split Notes, including a crash that would occur when trying to send the selected notes to a specific track.
• Fixed a crash that could occur when triggering a window set created in DP 9 or prior that contained a region op window.
• Fixed an intermittent crash when opening the continuous data region op windows.
• Fixed a crash in SndBitePane.
• Fixed a Windows-only bug where the QuickScribe font would be used to render patch names in the patch list menus.
• Fixed a crash when choosing a groove in the insert effect version of Groove Quantize.
• Fixed a potential crash when editing track options in the QuickScribe window.
• Fixed a graphical glitch with long Sequence Editor folder names.
• Fixed a cosmetic anomaly in the Markers window.
• Made the colored square in the track selector fit 10.2 and other surround sound labels.
• Added a conductor icon to the track selector in the 'Nine' theme.
• Made the insert automation box in the Sequence Editor line up.
• Fixed a graphics glitch in none more black theme.
• Made the track inspector button draw correctly meaning that the color stayed fill when the center column lost focus.
• Fixed a bug where importing a clipping file would fail to reconnect track inputs to the appropriate input bundles if the input bundle was a hardware input, rather than a bus or virtual instrument.
• Updated the Windows primary plug-in format alert text.
• Allow the track (context) name to be set into AU format plug-ins for all manufacturers.
• Notation editor zoom bug. DP would crash if the notation editor was open in the background and you zoomed the MIDI editor.
• Fix layout issues in Final Cut Pro Import dialog.
• Fixed crash when exporting to AAF or OMF with "copy all audio files" selected

This actually makes me sad. I knew it was bound to happen, but I'm probably alone in missing the DP8 handling of crossfades, it's probably been my biggest headache in updating to DP9. I often chop soundbites mid-fade, and I prefer it to delete the fade. I have a Keyboard Maestro hotkey for snipping and re-applying fades. With the newer DP9 system, I really have to be careful not to chop mid-fade, or it really screws everything up. I wish there was an option for this, but I understand that it's pretty specific to warrant a preference.

[Prime Mover]

FYI: this is a typical project for work, each of the snips have a 50ms crossfade, applied with a Keyboard Maestro macro.



And this is a single snip that I would LIKE to be able to make. In DP8, it would erase the existing crossfade, and apply a new one with my macro. Now it creates two separate fades on the edges of each clip, which is bad. Furthermore, since I'm using the "fade again" command, it adjusts the fade settings so that all future fades do this too, and screws up my workflow. Have to undo and manually remove the fade.

Yes. Sort of a non-feature, but I got accustom to it and quite missed this behavior in 10. I'm happy to report all the audio fade issues I was having are fixed in .01

I prefer the fade in DP 9 and got used to it quickly. I can see wanting to toggle back to the old way or reset it in Preferences, though.
