DMXIS not working with DP11 and Monterey

Post by Jeff Epperson »

I just upgraded to Monterey and Digital Performer 11. The plugin is not showing up in DP11. I was told this would work, am i missing something or should the AudioUnit show up?

Try using the DMXIS Audio Unit, instead of the VST plug-in.

It could be that DP 11 has been upgraded to natively support Apple Silicon, and can no longer load older VST plug-ins. The DMXIS Audio Unit should hopefully work OK.

I tried opening DP in Scarlett mode and it seems to work so far. Any plans on updating from intel at some point?

I don't use Digital Performer - can you explain what "Scarlett mode" is?

I'm investigating that.

I'm sorry, it's Rosetta, not Scarlett. See below, thats all i know about it.

macOS has a clever tool called Rosetta which “translates” Intel only apps and programs so that they work on Apple Silicon M1 Macs. However, Rosetta is not installed by default on M1 Macs and you’ll only be prompted to install it the first time you open an Intel only application or program.

Oh yeah, I know about Rosetta - it's essential for both Show Buddy and Show Buddy Active on M1 machines, and it SHOULD install automatically when required.

Now you have Rosetta installed, can you confirm if either of the DMXIS plugins (Audio Unit or VST) are working properly for you?
