Great info, thank you MIDI Life Crisis

Hi, our 2009 Mac Pro went dead in a session last night, we are travelling USA to go get a new one, is the Mac Pro ( the black one) appropiate to run DP?. I find for instance that it doesnt sport Firewire any longer, so what to do with the MOTU 2408 ,the MIDI Timepiece, MTP AV, MOTU 2408 MKII, the 3 ...

It seems that Phils post answer the quest. Changing the name does this,as I was also told by a local DP user. Although I finally dont seem to need it for now, we did the C7 piano recording today , each mic went to its own PT mono track, 7 of them. Ill go for an AAF to import to DP and place pans to ...

Not much in this regard, it confirmed I was not alone in this respect. Some solutions, quite obvious, like bouncing to disk 2 monos into a stereo track, come on...in 2016 it looks like a joke. Audiofinder...I have to use an external editor to accomplish this?..Ive been using DP for...20 years? cant ...

OK Thanks, Ill dig in the Search realm...

Thanks for the answers. Until now I was rehearsing several of the methods, none worked perfect. And PT AAFs insists on exporting stereo files into 2 single monos complicating even worst. I cant find a way in DP to conslolidate 2 mono tracks into a stereo one, the reverse is possible, but I dont need...

Thanxs once again, export options are quite cryptic in PT, and none refers to interleaved or stereo audio, just media composer compatibility, and so on. I have found in DP preferences, the section on what to do on import....with various types of actions, one of which is, dont change audio interleave...

Well , thanks MLC, I have been already doing it. Thing is, exporting clips on their own I can reimport them Timestamped OK but it is a bit tedious imagining 8 songs full of punches. Better seems to be AAF or OMF , I tried both, the problem is they split stereo channel into 2 tracks mono , dont know ...

Hi, I need help in this situation: whe are scheduled for a recording on a big studio with a Yamaha C7 grand. there are going to be 8 solo piano songs recorded on Protools. We are going to record some of them to a click track but others perhaps free from the grid. Afterwards we will take the sessions...

I suspected that possibility. Thanks for clarifying.

I must be honest, dont know how to do that trick with QT. I thought only DP could do this.

Thanks for your answer. DP8.05, and 10.8.5 was recomended by the tech that made the upgrade, he took the machine away and came with this, saying it was well proven and Maverick (and more so Y) could lead to problems...

Hello, because of an HD failure we had to fix our MacPro with an upgrade of OSX (10.8.5 now, from 10.6.8) and reinstall everything. (DP7.24), we are demoing DP8 but I cant seem to make the Canopus work through Firewire to a NEC plasma monitor.It worked flawless in 7.24 for years as it does now. I ha...

Thanks for all the thorough explanations. Have to try these, I already messed up a Logic X proyect today trying to deal with Flex Pitch and Flex Time together on the same track, had to spend the best of 1 hour reading the manual, I am so used to DP, this is like relearning to walk. I think Nightwatc...

Thanks for your prompt reply and the effort towards helping others.
