Copy/Pasting Audio doesn't land on playhead

I'm experiencing very strange behavior when copy/pasting audio files in the Sequence window. When I copy a soundbite then try to paste it where the scrolling wiper (or playhead) is, the soundbite goes into unexpected places. Sometimes it goes 2 or 3 bars later than the scroll wiper and sometimes beh...

Re: Effect Error - PANIC MODE!!!

So, the OS update did somehow reset DP to boot in 64-bit mode. Also, somehow the UAD plugins reverted to VST instead of AU mode (that could be pilot error when troubleshooting). So, changing DP to 32-bit mode AND making sure the plugin default mode is set to AU fixed the problem. Thank you for your ...

Beat 1 Of Click Inaudible In Record Mode

When I am tracking with click and simultaneously recording the click to its own track, oftentimes the first beat is not heard. It doesn't happen every time, so when starting a new take, if I don't hear it, I start recording again and it may or may not be heard. However, on playback, the first beat s...

Effect Error - PANIC MODE!!!

Opening up any DP session brings up the "Effect Error" dialog with a list of effects that could not be found. Going to preferences shows that they are no longer enabled. I can enable them, but the instances that were already in place in the inserts are still disabled. This is true for my 3...

Re: Editing Duplicate Soundbites in DP8 Separately?

Aha! Thanks, Chris. I knew it had to be there somewhere!

It's interesting that it doesn't mention that in the audio/soundbite editing section of the manual. I suspect it is in the Sequence Edit part of the manual, though.

Anyway, glad it's still there!

Editing Duplicate Soundbites in DP8 Separately?

I just updated to DP8.0.6 and noticed that I can't switch how duplicate soundbite editing is treated. In past versions, it was possible to set a preference to either edit all duplicate soundbites simultaneously or to edit them separately. In other words, editing one duplicate soundbite would not cau...

DP Latency Higher in Snow Leopard?

Has anyone noticed that the audio latency to be greater in Snow Leopard than previous OS's? During tracking, I monitor through software at a 64 buffer setting... I've been doing this for years and never had a problem. Ever since I updated to SL, though, I have had more clients notice the latency and...

Re: Crash on Open 7.11 / 7 .12

I unchecked the AU version in the plugin list (after starting with the shift key down, which pauses at the Plugins Prefs) and everything was peachy afterward.Shooshie Shooshie - how exactly do you access the AU/MAS check boxes in the plug-in list? I tried holding down shift while starting DP and it...

Re: Crash on Open 7.11 / 7 .12

Paul-- it might be useful to tell us what kind of Mac you're using. I suspect maybe it's PPC? I used to get Altiverb related crashes quite a bit on project load, but recently got a used Mac Pro and haven't had one since. "and it makes me wonder..." Hey, James I'm using a MacPro 3.0ghz wit...

Re: Crash on Open 7.11 / 7 .12

Paul-- there may be some other unpredictable issues with fades. Perhaps the "rendered" fades from DP5.x and earlier are not translating to DP7.x's real time fades feature. Of course, magicd's suggestion to check plugins is wise. I would also wonder about something such as Autotune: if it'...

Re: Crash on Open 7.11 / 7 .12

thanks, guys - all great ideas... I am using Altiverb - probably 6 instances of it. I am also using a lot of UAD-2 plugs. I was under the impression that all of my 3rd party plugs were AU, not MAS.... Maybe I was wrong about that. It does seem related to new tracks that I recorded after I had mixed ...

Crash on Open 7.11 / 7 .12

Has anyone been experiencing crashes when opening up a session in DP 7.11/7.12 esp from sessions that were started in DP 5.x? I have several sessions, many unrelated to each other, that will crash dp on open. They all seem to have in common that they were created in dp5.x.... The only way I've been ...

Re: Sample Rate Conversion on Export?

I only use the SRC on export to make reference or rough mixes for clients to have at the end of a session.... For proper dithering, etc., I apply this in mastering stage... It's just nice to have a quick and dirty way to transfer files out of dp for CDr's, although I could also simply import high de...

Re: Sample Rate Conversion on Export?

part of the streamlining, I guess.... I was used to being able to pick any type file. In the past, if you choose simply "AIFF", it would give you a box with all the options. Now, it just copies it immediately...

I'll try core audio...

thanks!
