Cool...

OK - so I have the Polar being used with the following setup: G5 iMac with OS X 10.4.2 with 1.5Gb RAM using Digital Performer 4.6 with projects at 24-bit/44.1kHz. I also have a Motu 828Mk2 as the main audio interface and a Lacie Porsche 250Gb firewire hard drive. This is what's happened so far...

v1.01 - Polar set up without a problem and the AU plugin can be used on an instrument track - full control between the virus and the plugin. Open up 1 or several midi tracks and midi recording is enabled and works fine. Audio can be recorded from output 1+2 on the virus through the 828 or as Mix track via the USB cable. Only problems are CPU overhead - regularly between 40% and 60% with occasional spikes into the red at 100% - this is with a latency of 256 samples. If I bring this up to 512 samples, CPU is now at 30 - 50% with no red spikes. The CPU overheads are noted with 1 Ti plugin and 1 24/44 audio track as a backing track.

v1.02 - Still the same CPU overhead, but now, while playing the song, if I change a patch while DP is playing, DP crashes every time. Now can hardly do anything without DP crashing on me.

Despite these niggles, the Polar sounds amazing - definitely in on a new level over the Virus KC. BTW - I have used several normal VI plugins and up to 20 audio tracks at the same sample rate in DP and never get a CPU overhead of more than 50%. Similarly my Nord G2 never gives me any problems with this either. In fact DP has been the most stable DAW I've used - this is the first time I've experienced so many crashes.

Any other Mac/DP users out there that can help?

The best thing you can do is opening a ticket on our support system.

http://www.access-music.de/?go=supportmail

Don't forget to fill out the fields about your computer, host you are using and software and driver versions.

We do not regularily watch this forum so addressing support directly is the most time saving way.

Default Bug when changing the Delay type

Hi!

Just wanted to change the Delay Mode "Edit FX" from "Simple Delay" to a Pattern. When receiving Pattern 3+3, suddenly the sound stopped. Since then, the TI doesn't output anything on any channel.

Even a restart didn't fix the problem ... no sound anymore

Hope, you can help!

[edit]

Ok, found the problem - seems, the TI killed my Sequencer (Sonar 4) 8O

Cheers,
glen

Ten, what kind of crashes are you getting ie - screen freeze, bsod etc?
Also, can you tell us exactly what happens and when - ex, I type in the tempo and as soon as I hit enter . . . . and it happens every single time etc.
thanks.

Mines not crashing but it will not allow me to change to tempo on the common page to sync with Cubase 3.

I click on the tempo part, type in 136 and hit enter. It goes back to 120.0 tempo.

Strange...

Househead and Ten, how come you don't use midi clock sync signal from cubase to keep the ti in sync with the tempo changes?

Yea, I have got it synced... I just wanted to change the tempo manually by typing it in As soon as I press enter boom it crashes with a box saying 'error blah press ok to shut down cubase sx'

If I use the mouse to move the tempo up/down though it works fine. Ive mentioned it to Access and they say it will be fixed in a later revision.
