I just tested Liquidmix - Mountain Lion, DP 8.01

works perfectly for me in 32 bit, and also in 64bit using JBridgeM.

Cheers!

Ok, so if I get you right it runs, but you haven't done too much work with it?

Not much, I hardly use it anymore as I have other emulations I prefer. But it worked exactly as it used to. I have no idea how it holds up under stress though.

Cheers!

I actually just tried it in 64bit on DP8.01 using JBridgeM, I managed to get 16 mono instances happily working, but no more - hmmm - I would have expected 32 - if I have time tomorrow I'll try the same test with stereo tracks, and also in 32 bit mode as well and see what happens!!

Pretty sure I used to be able to get 32 mono or 16 stereo.

Cheers!

I'm actually downloading Mountain Lion right now, so let's hope it works ;)

I'm not using many instances though, as I have many other great plug-ins.

OK - here are my findings

DP 8.01 - OSX 10.8.2

32 bit
Liquidmix AU - 32 mono or 16 stereo (as advertised!)

64bit
Liquidmix VST through JBridgeM - 16 mono or 16 stereo!

adding anymore crashes auxhost and DP

otherwise it seems to work as expected

Cheers!

Yes, I also got it to work seemingly well here, not testing that many instances though.

Strange also, since I got an email from Focusrite this morning saying it's only supported until 10.6 :)

Works well anyways!
