Question about Digital Performer
Question about Digital Performer
Hey all - I usually track in DP 4.5 and then edit in ProTools because I'm just faster in PT. The default audio file format for DP is SDII. I looked everywhere but couldn't figure out how to change this.
How do I make my DP sessions record BWFs? It drove me crazy all day today...
Thanks is advance!

I get satisfaction of three kinds. One is creating something, one is being paid for it and one is the feeling that I haven?t just been sitting on my ass all afternoon.
So you are locked into SDII? Not even aiffs or wavs? I guess the workaround is to export the files individually as aiffs, etc.emrr wrote:you can't. DP6 is promising BWF support, but not here yet. Dig around in the manual for all the answers.

I'm 99% sure that there's a place in DP where you can set it up to record in WAV format from the get-go as opposed to exporting the files as WAVs after-the-fact. Just ran across this option recently. When I get home from work tonight I'll suss it out...

So DP was unable to, then they made it possible in 5 (my version), and then they TOOK IT AWAY AGAIN?
Another one to add to the growing list of reasons to stay the hell away from 5.13 that I keep hearing about.

Ye speak the truth –?DP is and has always been SDII-only*, but the forthcoming DP6 release will add AIFF & Broadcast WAVE.subatomic pieces wrote:I've had v5 since it came out. As far as I know, even v5 has never had the ability to record to anything other than SDII.
It's promised for v6. But, I've got the v5 manual right in front of me and I can't find anywhere where it hints that .wav is an available recording format.
* For recording –?you could always export and import other formats.

Yeah, for me it is just a time issue. SDII is cool, and protools will import it, etc. But there are times I just want to go into the audio files folder, grab the aiff, and hand it to the video guy.carrythebanner wrote:Ye speak the truth ?

I might go back to logic again....
