sierra and dp help

Post by patshep »

i have never upgraded from dp8, i bought a new imac, and i'm tired of using logic, it seems hard to get info on whether dp8 will run on sierra.... i don't mind paying the upgrade for 9, but if i do... will that run well in sierra? i haven't used dp in 2 years probably and i miss it... any help is greatly appreciated

Pretty sure DP8 will be fine in Sierra, but I moved from Mountain Lion and DP8 to Sierra and DP9, so can't be sure. I can state with certainty that DP9.51 and Sierra are working nicely together.

DP8 is supported up through OS 10.10. DP8 is not supported under 10.11 or later.
