Masterworks Gate has no linked controls for stereo? I forget this over and over....

....and don't understand it. It's seriously unwieldy. 12 knobs to set individually on a stereo source rather than a linked 6 pair!

I know! It's great gate, but this is a serious oversight in its implementation.

There's a way to join stereo parameters... I think you must press Option (or is it control?) as you adjust them, and some parameters will be linked on both sides.

Yes, the Option key will link the controls, and Command is for more fine-tuned adjustments. You can press them both down at the same time to make fine-tuned adjustments to left and right simultaneously.

Thanks again gents. Of course, this is good info, but a Stereo Link button on the plugin would be awfully nice, too.

That does not work here in DP11.22. I went through every control/option/command/+shift combo and nada. Please explain more.

All I did was follow the Digital Performer Plug-ins Guide. These are screenshots from there, and it works just as written (but I'm still on DP10.13...not sure if anything has changed since then).

When I hold them BOTH down at the same time, it does what I'd expect; Stereo control with fine-tune adjustments.

I hope that made sense.

Ditto The manual says the option key works, but here, no key combo works.

Thanks.....just doesn't work here. Didn't in DP8 either.

Well, that is weird, guys. I tested it before posting, and tested it again. It still works for me. I wish I could help you figure this out.

Here's a question:

Does holding down Command while changing parameters on any stock DP plug-in make a difference, as far as fine-tuning is concerned?

yes, Command works for fine turning.

Yes, command has always worked for me. I use that all the time.

Thanks for the the info, pencilina. I guess that explains why mine's still working (DP 10.13).
