I've been experimenting with automating the PSP 608 in DP4.6. It seems to be rather sporadic. Strange graphic anomolies and inconsistent behavior is quite frequent. Basically, it doesn't do what it's supposed to. Results are very unpredictable. I will be glad to supply details if you request them. I was just posting this to see if anyone else has been experiencing this.

My system:

Mac MDD G4 Dual 1.25
1.75 GB RAM
OS 10.3.9
DP4.6

Thanks for sharing any observations.

Kind Regards,

Rade

As much as i like the plug it does act weird in DP 4.6.

Since i havene't had any time to experiment it, and the stereo pack have been removed from the plug ins folder until further notice.

I'll add a little more:

Often times, when taking a Snapshot of the 608 MD's parameters during playback, DP will freeze. Also, the arrow buttons (preset selectors) sometimes will not let you switch presets.

I'm mentioning this because I've never had a PSP plug-in give me this many problems before. It's definitely unusual. Hopefully, there will be an update. I'll keep adding info as I come across it (not to complain but to help...I figure the more information, the better).

Best Regards,

Rade

Edited to add:

Dragging 608 from one insert to another can cause a crash

Yep, I've seen the graphic problem (large parts of the GUI suddenly manifesting elsewhere on the screen). Haven't tried to drag an insert yet. Will do during the week.

Kind regards.

Just a quick update. I tried dragging an instantiation of 608 from one track insert to a different track insert and it worked fine. However, option-dragging to copy it to a different track insert crashed DP4.61.

Kind regards.

I have been having problems with this and Nitro in DP 5. I had Nitro inserted on a track in slot 1 and wanted to add 608 ahead of it. I dragged Nitro down to slot 3, then added 608. DP 5 crashed as the GUI was drawing... I was able to repeat this (a couple of times, unfortunately ;\) ). I was able to do what I wanted to by saving the file after moving Nitro where I wanted it, then quitting DP, restarting it and when the file was loaded again, adding 608 in slot 1.

I also found that I must run PSP608 in real time (no pre-rendering), otherwise the buffer will play back whatever was playing when I stopped playback. That is, whenever i restart the tune I'll get a burst of echoed sound (not good!).
