#Digital performer 9 windows driver#

That's been a driver thing since at least win7 (i have a lenovo laptop that suffers this).Īnyway, for a. I only share documents, but no matter how i set it in windows' config, it uses its defaults (music, photos, etc.everything BUT documents).Īlso, 802.11n wifi is still flaky (depending on the driver), so if you run into connectivity droppage, try turning off n mode, and just use G or G/B mixed mode. The only real annoyance i have with w10 thus far is homegroup sharing. When i'd first installed DP8, my system had IE removed, and it didn't work then either. I believe this is because win10 does away with IE, which DP uses for that. It's only a big white box with the file, edit, etc menu across the top. In terms of DP, on a clean install, the welcome to DP window won't show any content. Of course you can also save window presets Add. choosing the wrong version will cause your authorization to fail. Do you mainly work on your projects in the evening Simply adjust the DAW to suit your eyes. There's something for everyone in this major upgrade.

If you upgrade over existing, and the authorization takes, you can then format, use a new drive, etc, and if your previous version of windows was an oem install (with the windows key tag in the bios), just skip the bit where it asks you for the key, and it'll authorize automagically when it connects to the internet, just as windows 8.x did.Ģ) make sure you install the correct version of windows 10, if it prompts you to. Introducing Digital Performer 9 Digital Performer version 9 is now shipping and includes MOTU's powerful MX4 MultiSynth, plus five new plug-ins, automation lanes and spectrogram display in the Sequence Editor, Retina display support, MusicXML notation export and other new features. So if you blow away the authorized version of windows on the first install, it will not find that key, and won't authorize. It registers your existing win7-8.x key to become your win10 key. This is because MS does NOT provide a new key for the upgrade. I'd suggest keeping your apps/settings when you do so the first time, rather than removing your old files/prefs. *** Install the upgrade on top of your existing OS FIRST! ***

If you do opt for a clean w10 install, there are a couple of things you should know: ASIO will work precisely as it always has. Note that the new windows audio improvements do NOT apply to ASIO, only WSAPI, WDM, etc. Everything seems to work as it should in that regard.

In any case, I installed the most current drivers first, and when i turned connectivity on, windows update didn't find any driver udpates.just a few security patches and defender definitions. I use a disk image because of machine-id instrument authorizations. On my system, i do fresh installs, and disk image them because i do semi-annual clean installs to eliminate any munge from updates, etc. If you've done w10 as an upgrade, it'll probably work fine. I have it on my system for testing, and thus far, it seems pretty good.
