Finally, there's great news from Rob Martin, the DP4 patchlist guru, who's worked out a way of enabling custom banks in the new XML patchlist format. Also this month, the world of MAS OS X plug-ins probably quadruples in size, with the release first of the Audio Ease Altiverb convolving reverb for DP4, and then the entire range of plug-ins by Waves. This should make using DP on older Macs a much happier experience - and if OS 10.3's promised speed increases materialise, by Christmas we should all be able to dismiss further thoughts of owning a G5 (yeah, right). First of all, rumours are rife that DP 4.1's MAS audio engine has undergone a major rewrite, significantly boosting speed and efficiency. One of the most powerful and useful plug-ins available for DP4 - the Renaissance Channel by Waves.However, if the delay of 4.1 is the bad news, there's also plenty of good news this month. That'll have to be next month - hopefully! And as I write this article it's still not out, so this is not quite the Performer Notes I thought it would be. The news that Waves' range of quality plug-ins is now available for DP adds to the activity in an already interesting month for Digital Performer users - despite a delay in the release of 4.1.Īs the enthusiastic upgraders and updaters amongst you no doubt already know, DP v4.1 was not released on August 8th as MOTU originally promised (and as mentioned in my last column) due to last-minute bug-squashing difficulties.
