Digital Performer 4 and 002 Rack

[atrest]

glad to help. i dont know what the command binding thing is though. i need to get the 001 to work with DP3!! i hate this.

I recently switched to an 002 from a MOTU 896 and I hadn't fired up DP4 yet so your thread made me curious.

I too had the spinning ball problem, but managed to make it finally work. I

1. selected setup/configure audio system/configure hardware driver
2. selected the built-in audio controller and hit ok. The sound began playing out of my computer speaker. So far so good (no sound played previously)
3. I went through the process again, but this time selected the Digi hardware and clicked ok. It took a few seconds (or more) but the spinning ball disappeared.
4. My old track outputs were invalid (in italics now) so I had to select a new output (the digi outs) and everything worked fine.

Hope this helps.

Hi All,

PLEASE HELP. Using Digi 002 with 6.1.1 and Digital Performer 4.1, I CANNOT succeed in selecting PT 6.1.1's DAE from within DP. I tried the method quoted above. A subsequent post suggests installing DP 4.0 or 4.01 first. I don't have 4.0 or 4.01 of DP available, since I lept from lower version in OS 9 to DP 4.1 via CD installer.

SO...I can't experiment with that second workaround for tricking DP into updating the drivers. I am sure you can relate, the frustration is compounded by the urgency of meeting a deadline. Any and all help will be most welcome. Have spent all day on this and must get it to work. (Powerbook G4 15" 1 gigHz/512 meg). I am using OS 10.2.6 and I am about to go up to OS 10.2.8 in another desperate attempt to find the missing link. Thanks for any and all new or used suggestions!

Ok-From 4.0 with an M-Box this did work.
Thank you very much.
Mac OS 10.2.8
PT 6.1.1 & Core 6.1.1
DP 4.1 (New outputs need to be assigned)

If you load the old version of DP... like 4.01 or 4.0, change the driver there to the digi one, then wait for the ball to go away (about 20 seconds max), then close out of that version and open 4.1, it should work. i was having the same problem and i did that and it worked. it saves the preferences from 4.0/.01 and automatically changes 4.1 to the digi drivers.

fyi_4.01 did not work for this trick for me but 4.0 did.
