Digital Performer 4.5 & Tiger Options

[tybassoon]

I have DP 4.5...not sure if it's 4.52...that's all I hear about, but nowhere does it say 4.52.

Anyway...I’m trying to work on a project in my studio and just upgraded to tiger yesterday. Every time I hit the play button, DP closes. I went to MOTU's site and they said to trash the old version of 4.52 and re-install it. I trashed the version I had (it said 4.5 on it) and re-installed and am still getting the same reaction. I tried restarting my computer and there has been no change.

Can anyone help me get my DP working? Thanks.

I've seen some problems as well - When I go to quit, I have to select quit twice. I did the reinstalll, and ran permissions. I'm going to trash some preferences and see... You can find the 4.5.2 download at the MOTU site, but you have to be registered.

FYI Logic fine (of course) and SX 3 no problems so far. As for plugins, I had to update PACE for my WAVES stuff to work (AU, VST, and MAS).

Let us know if you find out anything from MOTU. Let's be sure to contact tech support as well. I'll see what I can find out.

Thanks for your reply. I hadn't noticed the "next" arrow on the DP update page, and the 4.52 update was on the bottom of the second page, so I didn't know that it was there. The only update i had seen anywhere on MOTU's site was one to make DP work in Tiger, which, when I clicked the link, took me to an ordering page.

I downloaded the 4.52 update and installed it and everything works fine now.

I guess you should try trashing the 4.52 update (if you have 4.5 or 4.51 on your computer) and re-downloading and re-installing it. If you have the 4.52 disc, trash the application and then re-install from the disc. That's what MOTU's site says to do.

Hey, sorry to have jumped to a conclusion.
It seems to be a particular plugin, in a specific project, that doesn't allow DP to quit properly. Everything else checks out fine, so far. It seems to be the M-Tron plugin (AU version). Even though it loads fine, the program takes a second quit.

Also, I tried the same plugin with Logic, which crashed when I first tried to save it. It actually saved, though, and then opened fine, allowing me to save the second time.

So who knows? Sounds like an issue with the plug, not DP. Didn't mean to jump to conclusions. Everything else is running smoothly. Thanks for your reply.
