Re: We need a project load dialog

Honestly James, having access to 7-8 DAWs here the thing I wish the most for DP is the ability to open up a Template without saving it somewhere. All other DAWs I have use RAM to save the new project until you quit or save it. My DP files are a mess with project starts that went nowhere.At least eve...

I'm picking this up for sure, struggling a bit with an old recording of vocals that are all over the place loudness wise even when heavily compressed..

Re: Chunks Window Insanity

Perhaps it is a concept that works really well on paper, but isn't how most users would end up working. As with most deep features like that, I might not use it today, but I'm weirdly comforted knowing it's there. Honestly when I used an Emax III and Moog for 95% of the songs I was writing in DP2.7...

Re: iZotope RX 11 is out

That GC/MF purchase link is still up there. Yeah... that's to buy 7.5, right? I already have 7.5. I guess what you mean is I can buy it all over again and perhaps qualify for a free 8? One thing stood out: Spectral Editor ARA [Standard, Advanced]: Use the spectrogram to find and fix issues without ...

Re: DP 11 and routing ins/outs with NI Maschine 2 and MK3

Ugh, NI erased me and the Maschine moderators extensive breakdown on how to do this unfortunately. Look into the Groups, right clicking the group and changing the way groups work from 16 channels for one drum group to a single channel, then you can record a single MIDI track into DP. I don't use Mas...

Re: DP12 release date?

Wildly overdue! I hope for a more modern but still simple-to-use interface--I also hope they fix the Steinberg incompatibility issues--I'd love to be able to use Halion and Groove Agent-- I'm sure there are other things we all are hoping for! Greg I agree, the UX of DP could use an overhaul. The is...

Re: Am I Missing Something?

What Mike said. There are three places in Preferences to look at to control DP's behavior when importing audio, (this should change IMO, but I digress), and your general audio setup: Background Processing, Automatic Conversions, and Pitch and Stretch. Along with looking at your Project Settings, eit...

Can't see it at the host site.

Can't open in new window at host site either.

Could it be 'cause I'm still on High Sierra with Safari?

Thanks guys.
I don't know? but this is a direct link, try that?

I helped design the DP11 kbcovers.com layout! Two week coupon for DP users.

So I spent some time emailing with kbcovers.com developer Bruce about redoing their design for DP11, I don’t think it had been updated since version 8? I'm not affiliated I just bought the keyboard on the recent sale and emailed Bruce that it was sorely outdated and he asked for help with it. I was ...

Yeah it's another beta. I haven't installed it yet, and when I turn off beta updates it disappears and says my beta is up to date.

Oh and show/hide disabled tracks is a good suggestion for MOTU, might as well hit em up!

Re: View filters and track folders

One trick you that might help is to mute tracks that you've disabled then you can use the play enable state to filter out whatever tracks are muted. One advantage of the universal Solo button here is not having to reset it to bounce around this way, at least until you're in the mix stage. obviously ...
