Hey, Electrical people. I didn't read through nine pages of analog vs. digi arguments so forgive me...

Why Digital Performer? I used it for a few projects long ago and I found it cumbersome. I use Cubase (and soon Logic also) and it's incredibly easy. The audio editing is great also. Pro Tools does sequencing but has no score window, so....

Any reason for DP specifically or did you just need a sequencer with a score window?

I use Digital Performer from time to time outside the studio. Compatibility.

oh.

Do you use it to control internal samples/audio or external MIDI stuff? If the first one, do you ever export OMF's, you know, for jumping from one platform to another...? It NEVER works for me ever. I have to bounce from zero everytime. Ive never done that with DP though.

Anyway..

I have done some bouncing between Logic and DP successfully, nothing totally huge. I've mainly used DP as a recorder. I don't have much midi sequencing experience with it. I know there is a ton of fun to be had there.

You bounced between them using OMF's?

Yes

Good call, its another tool and thats the way it should be vued, i think people should get over the whole daw snobery, The only bad thing about it is the amount of un skilled users there around the world giving Protools a bad name, its not the equipment it the person thats using it!

how the fuck did i miss tad in here...?
what a legend.
