I am running BFD 3.5 inside Digital Performer 11. Drums are working but IU cannot seem to get the program to run any groove when I hit play. The play button goes on and I can see that the metronome is in sync but no playback. I have tried lots of grooves, nothing. But when I hit the play button on the groove itself, perfect! It plays through the entire sequence. And if I hit the playback within Digital Performer, the Groove stops, but the playback is once again, in sync with DP, just no groove. I have looked online and found something about clicking a box that says: “respond to song start” & “respond to groove notes setting” but I cannot find these options anywhere. I’ve looked under Tools, then Show Preferences - nothing that I can see. Need some help, please - thanks!
If I’m reading this right, you may need to edit the BFD3 preferences/shortcuts section if you haven’t assigned playback to the spacebar. This should trigger groove playback and you also have to set it to “palette” and make sure groove playback is not inactive.
On an unrelated note: you can drag the grooves into the timeline to hear them in DP. But that requires a separate midi track and assigning it to the instrument.
Good luck.
