| I still prefer Digital Performer In terms of utility and user-interface, Digital Performer is my favorite production software. I find it to be more elegant and logical than ProTools. I haven't spent much time with Nuendo and Logic though. I still can't ever imagine mixing in the box, though. I will always love my Manley 16x2 and I can't imagine living without analog outboard. Not even for sound, just for quality of life. For the joy of the process. Wow, I digressed there. Anyway, I'm excited about DP5.  -- Chad |

| I have to say too, that I asked at Namm about a distributed processing a la Logic, and they said they are working on it. Not for immediate release, but in the future. |

| It's on the website today. The upgrade will be $195 U.S. For me, the past several upgrades have been worth the money they were asking.

Nevertheless, I was ready to upgrade to this feature set until I saw the price. I really didn't expect to pay more for this upgrade. I don't think there's that much value in the DAW enhancements. If they had supported distributed processing in this release, I would have ordered immediately without a thought to the price. | |

| I believe 4.5 was a paid upgrade, but the other "dots" were free. I think the $195 price is excessive. I don't need the VIs. I have Kontakt, Kompakt, Reason and a few others. The meter bridge is cool, but for me, ot worth the extra cash. The new edit tools are cool, but come on! I'm not going to be getting it any time soon.

|  Every upgrade version since DP4 has been worthwhile and I’m excited about v5. There is definitely more to this upgrade than just soft synth plugins, which btw look sweet. A lot of useful new features such as the new meter bridge great for those ITB folks. My favorites are the new editing tools, Live style elastic audio editing in the Waveform Editor window, and the color-coded track folders etc. All these useful cool features working in perfect harmony with PT.  |

I'm not saying that some of the new enhancements are not good. I think track folders and metering are really great workflow improvements. I'm just saying that it didn't seem like new version number and $195 worth of improvements to me. 4.5 and 4.6 together offered more improvements to the sequencer than 5.0. All that said, I'm going to upgrade. I am a gearslut afterall. | |

| MOTU doesn't state the system requirements for DP5. i.e., does it run in OSX 10.3, or does it require 10.4? Also, MOTU has moved to iLok for a lot of their software, and there is no information (that I could find) on whether DP5 requires iLok/Pace. I've been stung before where I upgraded/bought software only to find out after the fact that iLok was required. I'm up for the $195 upgrade immediately--more than usual but workable considering the new features--but not if DP5 requires iLok. In that case I'll stick with DP 4.61 as long as possible. I'll be **very** unhappy if DP goes to iLok. |

| Can anyone recommend DP as a front end to PT HD? Am moving back to ProTools world (from DP --> Logic). Despite improvements in MIDI in PT 7, it is still not easy to move quickly through the composition process. Can anyone comment on DP's ability to work with PT HD? I was disappointed with the Logic--HD function. I make the assumption that any feedback would be DP4.6, unless there are beta testers of 5 out there. TIA Lumpo |

Last 3 months we have been working on this album project, almost day and night (tight deadline to meet). No crashes at all. System: HD3, G5 dual 2.7, loads of software instruments and plugs etc. Since v4.5 DP has been rock solid. DP5 is not out yet (probably 2 more weeks) but judging from the last couple of upgrades I’d assume that it would be rock solid. | |

| I've used DP 4.61 as a front end for the Digi 002 PT/LE and it worked fine, no problems. My recording engineer works with a guy who uses DP as the front end for a large HD setup, and has commented that it works well. |
