Had to set Audio Drivers. It picked up ASIO4All for my MOTU 828 Mk II but the ins and outs were not correct and the correct ones were greyed out. No big deal because every Xx (or Cantabile or Overture or Finale) I installed did the same thing. I just revert to  WDM and re-profile then set it back to ASO4All and all the ins and outs are selectable again.



Are you aware that there is (apparently) an ASIO driver for your interface ?  If so, you shouldn't be using ASIO4ALL with it.  From the manual :
 
"The 828mkII also includes a Windows ASIO driver for multi-channel compatibility with any audio application that supports ASIO drivers."

Hi there,
 
I went for monthly payments (Platinum) via PayPal, but could you shed some light on how are the future payments going to work? Is it going to be handled automatically through PayPal? In my PayPal account Cakewalk is not marked as "Subscription" but as "Credit card payment" and is also marked as Completed.
 
Thank you in advance.

Everybody...  Please stop calling it subscription.   It is not.




That may be the case, but I doubt seriously if people will stop calling it that. It's just human nature! : )




You *might* get people to call the payments "membership dues"  ;)

1.  Do you provide Educator Discounts to the upgrade price?
2.  Can you give us information on how long this introductory price will last?

In case someone pay for less then 12 months monthly, the result is the same as when it is subscription.
 
So, I think it is reasonable to distinguish:
  • up front payment - you buy current version plus support and updates next 12 month
  • you pay 12+ monthly - you buy membership for the period you pay (and can keep everything you have at the end, so that is NOT subscription
  • you pay <12 monthly - you buy subscription, you can use the product when you pay and you get nothing once you no longer pay
So, the subscription is now POSSIBLE. But that is not the only option.

Thanks for that! True. The problem is that the MOTU ASIO driver simply will not deliver at anything less than 512 samples without some random pops and crackles, while I can get ASIO4All to run clean at 64 samples. I don't know what the issue is. I have the latest drivers. This has always been the case with the 828 Mk II as far as I can remember. I could be wrong as my main system has been SCOPE (with bulletproof ASIO) until I finally replaced my aging PC with a game spec laptop.  I might build a new desktop with PCI slots for all the Creamware cards (one of these days).  I just love SCOPE but building a machine to support it is not financially feasible now.  The laptop is great, especially live.  As far as the MOTU 828 Mk II is concerned I'm sure there is some low level driver issue with the ASIO and I really don't want to spend my life researching and experimenting to get it to work when I can get what I need from ASIO4all or even the WDM drivers and make music!
 
If anyone else has some ideas about the 828 MkII running with the native MOTU ASIO drivers Please PM as I'm definitely open to that. Just bear in mind that I've been through all the theories and Google stuff.

It is a subscription. It always has been a subscription:
 
""the action of making or agreeing to make an advance payment in order to receive or participate in something"
 
We have been purchasing VERSION subscriptions, lasting at least a year and often longer. X3 was a 16 month subscription and we received five "issues" (versions).
 
A subscription does not have to mean getting a new "issue" every month, week, or quarter.
 
Paying monthly does not make anything a subscription. It is a payment plan.
 
That I make monthly payments for my house mortgage does not make my house a subscription.
 
But if I do not pay a few payments, the functionality of the house will change to not-living-in-this-house mode.
 
Another year of payments and I will "own" it.
 
Then I will get a new mortgage to make improvements.

Hi there,
 
Ok - I'm all Platinumed-up, and it was a painless exercise, straight in!
However I do have an issue registering Dimension-Pro; when clicking on the register button (in the grey D-Pro pop up box) I'm taken to a page which says this product is already registered; If I enter the reg-code given in Command Centre, I get an "invalid code" message (and the serial number is different to that given in the D-Pro pop-up box).
 
This also happens back in the X3 set-up too.
 
Any thoughts?
Jerry

Wild guess: Could be Dimension Pro 1.5 setup detects your previous version and doesn't need to update it.
