ik Multimedia ARC 4

ik Multimedia ARC 4 I didn't realize they had the software available separately for users of the plugin version. I have ARC 3. Still the upgrade price is $99.99 and with my Jam Points I can only get it down to $84.99, so I think I'm going to pass for now. I still have SonarWorks that I have yet to ...

Re: Mac "cleaning" app?

I use Find Any File to track down fragments of uninstalled programs. It may take a bit longer, and there is no automation involved, but one is in complete control of the process and you get a very clear map of where the files are installed. It can get annoying though when the OS keeps asking for yo...

New Eventide Plugins Released Today

These look pretty slick! https://www.eventideaudio.com/h3000-mk-ii-plug-ins/ What I don't understand though is I own the Anthology XII bundle and when I click "Get Crossgrade Price" it says "no eligible licenses found" and have to pay full price? I wrote to Eventide support and m...

CleanMyMac is not needed on Apple computers. It can harm user files, lead to poor performance and an unstable Mac. If installed, we suggest that it be deleted
Yeah... that app has always sort of made me unsettled. I'd rather not use it, too.

Re: Komplete Kontrol crashes MBP M3 in DP11.31

MacOS 14.5 beta 4 dropped yesterday. There was a minor Kontakt GUI window issue present in beta 3 that appears to be fixed. Yeah... unfortunately for me, Beta 3 had finally fixed a long standing problem I was having with Pro Tools Studio and Console 1. Then Beta 4 broke it again. Fortunately, I don...

Re: Mac "cleaning" app?

I'm a CleanMyMac X fanboy, myself. As for replacing CPUs, I did that way back in the G3/G4 days and it caused major problems with ProTools LE. Presumably things have gotten better by now but caveat emptor. Things are/were much different than Power PC days. I did the processor swap on my MacPro4,1 w...

Re: OT RANT: Boz Digital: WTH?

Well... just an update. Seems clear to me now why none of those plugins were getting updated. https://www.bozmasterkeys.com/ I remember the release of the New York L bundle and those were obviously the first attempt. Each piano was a separate plugin, but Boz has been busy and now he has a main plugi...

Re: Trouble remembering Micro-lite settings.

Hmmm... for starters, your JV 1080 should not have 8 MIDI IN ports . It probably responds to multiple MIDI CHANNELS , but probably should only have ONE MIDI IN port . Just now I went to Audio MIDI Setup and added a JV-1080 by using the drop down menus and this is was the result: JV-1080.jpg Notice o...

Re: Sonoma 14.4 crash/kernel panic/reboot with Kontakt 7

FYI, neither here nor there, but I have Pro Tools installed on my Mac. I just dabble with it. I have latest 2024.3 and forever there has been a bug that has plagued me where it might take five or six attempts to open a project that contained an instance of Console 1. I'd have to force quit Pro Tools...

Komplete Kontrol crashes MBP M3 in DP11.31

As of Ventura, APFS Snapshots can no longer roll back the macOS Volume but it can restore the Data Volume as it did before—as long as this is done within the 24 hour window. https://www.motunation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=64689 That might apply if the APFS snapshot was made with a different versio...

Re: Komplete Kontrol crashes MBP M3 in DP11.31

Any time I'm about to do something on my system that makes me nervous, I run a TM backup which will create an up-to-date APFS snapshot of my boot drive so I have something to fall back on easily in case things go wrong. James, are you running an SSD for your TM backups? If you are using a spinner, ...
