Re: MIDI recording late

There are several things which I reported to them over the past year and had some back and forths about...that was one of them, but several others...also not fixed. For example, DP11 currently has a little bug some of you may or may not be aware of...but with VST3 instruments, when you try to send C...

Re: MIDI recording late

Dissapointing that MOTU still didn't fix this bug in the 11.2 recent update.

Re: Dolby Atmos

think of it the other way around...how many people who are interested in Atmos might embrace DP!?!? You don't attract new users by ignoring market trends. Well as I've said already, Atmos and/or Spatial Audio is going to increasingly be a thing. MOTU can embrace it or miss it, its up to them. I stil...

Re: Dolby Atmos

never know. An easier level of support would be to simply support larger surround busses, such as 7.1.4, 7.1.2, 9.1.4, etc.. Just by adding those bundle possibilities, then a lot could be done for Atmos in DP12, simply by using third party plugins or even Dolby's own tools. We simply need larger sur...

Re: Dolby Atmos

I also got crashes when attempting surround on DP11. And its surround capabilities are too limited for Atmos anyway. Ask MOTU to update DP12 for Atmos..but it would be a lot of work, I'm not sure they will...

Re: Dolby Atmos

I think Atmos is gonna be different then 5.1 because of the playback flexibility. But more generally, I think so called "immersive audio" is going to become quite a thing because of advances in psycho-acoustics that have happened in the past 10 years or so...and the upcoming VR fad that is...

Re: Dolby Atmos

First, most ideally you will have an actual surround system to monitor on. But in some ways it’s no different then stereo mixing in that we have to hear it on a number of different systems to make sure it will translate well where it’s most likely to be played or at least hear a clear enough version...

Re: Dolby Atmos

That's why binaural monitoring is so cool. You can actually do a pretty decent job of mixing and monitoring a 3D production with any pair of headphones and a binaural encoding plugin on the master bus. Cubase, Logic Pro and maybe some others include one provided by Dolby and/or Apple. There is also ...

Re: Dolby Atmos

Atmos is becoming the new stereo.... :-) Anyway, my main interest is orchestral composing...and specifically using VSL MirPro3D for the ambience...which is very realistic and provides a true 3D audio experience if I could mix in 7.1.4 and if I could monitor in binaural. Unfortunately I can't do it i...

Re: Dolby Atmos

I was able to get past hardware requirement, by adding another audio interface that I no longer use...but at least I could create a 5.1 bundle with those existing. Now on to next problem. What is the proper way to setup a surround mix bus in DP? I created a bundle and assigned that to the master cha...

Re: Dolby Atmos

From what I see in this thread, the problem is not getting a load of output channels -- you can get 256 of them with BlackHold - what is BlackHold? Never heard of that. - unless you need to listen to it with something other than headphones. It's that DP doesn't pan in more than two dimensions. The ...

Re: Dolby Atmos

yea that is what I need to do. If you know a way, love to hear it. At this point its somewhat hypothetical as DP11 doesn't provide appropriate 3D mixing modes anyway. But eventually if they ever do, I will need to know how to do that.

Re: Dolby Atmos

I think DP just needs to see however many audio output ports available (not used by another bundle either I don't think). For 10.2 that is more than ten outputs. If they are fake in some way it wouldn't matter for my purposes because I am going to monitor the results through binaural encoded stereo ...
