Not me, boy. I can always Time Machine back or boot from the current clone... I'm installing it as soon as I get this mix done.

Apparently mostly power consumption and (most concerning) memory handling.

From MOTU: DP 8 is Mavericks ready and has been tested with the new OS. I'm in the middle of a mix but will install after completion.

It's good to know DP is okay. I'd love to take the plunge but unsure of compatibility with my Apogee Quartet interface.

But not for Symphony I/O—they're saying November.

installing right now.

So far great. It has even appeared to solve the incompatibility between RX 3 and DP 8.05.

The iTunes permissions issue is gone - and this was before I installed 11.1.2.



Flip4Mac isn't working - but that's not an issue for me and I may just have an old version, I don't know.

Looks like Apogee have a Mavericks driver for the Duet Firewire, plus I've just found that spreadsheets on the new iPad Numbers won't sync with my iMac until I upgrade to Mavericks, so it looks like I'll go ahead a.s.a.p. and trust to my backups.

Mike, just wondering where you saw this? I've just checked MOTU's website for the 8.05 release
