I'm currently running DP 6.03.
I'd like to upgrade to OS X Lion but need to upgrade to DP 7.24 to do this but don't believe I can upgrade directly from 6.03 to 7.24.
I see that there are versions 7.0, 7.1 and 7.2 available. Do I need to upgrade to 7.0 then 7.1 and then 7.2 or can I just upgrade directly to 7.2 before upgrading to 7.24?
Thanks
-Mike

Re: OS X Lion
Get the paid update from MOTU and the current update will probably be on the disk. If not, just the current update is needed but the install from the DVD is critical as a first step.
MS Office drove me crazy with having to do the incremental updates. Increment is the new excrement! lol

Re: OS X Lion
Yes, you'll probably get 7.2x on DVD and might just have to upgrade to 7.24 after that. Maybe you'll even get the latest. So don't let those worries hold you back. DP7 is SOOOO much better than DP6!
Just make sure any other software apps you are dependent on are compatible with Lion before upgrading. In my case the only ones I'm really dependant on are DP, UAD, PLAY and EZDrummer. Of those UAD still isn't compatible and EZDrummer (the least important) I don't know the state of. Once UAD is compatible I'm getting a Magic TrackPad and uprade to Lion.

Yep, I got the DP 7 upgrade a couple of months ago, and 7.23 was on the disk.
