Call me cauious...is OSx 10.11.6 safe to go to?

Post by artfarm1 »

Call me cautious....my system is running fine with El Capitan 10.11.4.

Any good reason to go, or not to go, to 10.11.6? (...I'm definitely not going to Sierra yet as I don't even care about using Siri on my iPhone or iPad, and I have yet to read any true success stories amongst music/audio people....and I don't use Finale either.)

All good with El Capitan 10.11.6 for use with DP 9x?
DP 11, OS Ventura
MacMini 2023 M2Pro, 16 gig RAM, MOTU M6, SSD drives for everything, various sound/sampled libraries from all major vendors, Logic Pro X, DSP-Quattro
MacBook Pro 2015, OSX Monterey, 2.5ghz, 16 gig RAM (w/duplicate software as in MacMini setup)
Trombones: King 2B SilverSonic, King 2B Liberty, & Conn 88H w/Doug Elliott mouthpieces!
