Tracktion/Dawesome Abyss updated to 1.3.2

Post by James Steele »

Tracktion/Dawesome Abyss updated to 1.3.2

Not sure what the update entails, but just came out tonight. Run Tracktion Download Manager to update.

BTW, for me, the installer downloads the update and just gets stuck and doesn't proceed with the install. You can quit, the Download Manager and then go to your Downloads folder and you will find the update pkg. You can then launch it and install directly.

Then launch Tracktion Download Manager. It will still tell you that you need to update Abyss. Right click the version number and choose "I already have this version" and it will get rid of that.

Thanks for the heads-up!

Am I the the only one who notices that the app has a smaller footprint than the documentation?

I hadn’t compared the app to the manual but always wondered how he gets the executable file so small. I remember IT shops that programmed directly in machine code to get small files and quick execution, but wouldn’t think that matters much any more.

MOTU Pro Audio Installer v95330 released April 10?

Post by James Steele »

I just checked for this tonight and not sure when it came out because I think I would have seen it before, but there is a new version of MOTU Pro Audio Installer up in the Downloads section of the MOTU site. It's the first one that specifically lists Sonoma as supported.
