Digital Performer: How can I get the knobs, drawbars, and meters to move smoothly?

By default, Digital Performer runs plug-ins in pre-rendering mode if their track is not record-enabled. This is the case even when the plug-in's window is open. Pre-rendering mode uses much larger buffer sizes, which causes the plug-in's user interface to respond in a slow, steppy fashion. Thankfully, Digital Performer also has an easy way to change this behavior:

1. Open the plug-in window for a VOX Super Continental instance.
2. Click on DP's mini-menu in the upper right corner of the plug-in window, just above the automation menu.
3. Select the option "Run Open Instances of this Plug-in in Real Time."

Now, when a VOX Super Continental window is open, the user interface will respond smoothly. You only need to make this setting once; it then applies to any other VOX Super Continental instance.
