Re: Sonoma 14.5 Official Release just dropped!

Well maybe it's RC1 and not the release? Didn't say RC1 as I recall when I got the notification. sonoma14.5.jpg Yeah it's another beta. I haven't installed it yet, and when I turn off beta updates it disappears and says my beta is up to date. Yep. 23F79 is the RC. https://appleinsider.com/articles/...

Re: New Mac: Loud crackling driving me mad

You are certainly welcome. Thanks for reporting back! A couple of suggestions: You should update the title (edit your first post) with the piece of gear giving you grief. Then, if you ever do crack that nut, add the word Resolved to the title—but not before it is, of course—and tell us the solution....

Re: Sonoma 14.4 crash/kernel panic/reboot with Kontakt 7

It showed up in my beta feed. Many sites had similar announcements to this yesterday. https://appleinsider.com/articles/24/05/09/apple-drops-three-macos-release-candidates-in-one-day I turned off beta in Software updates yesterday and it's still saying that I have beta 4. I hadn't seen the 14.5 rele...

Re: Sonoma 14.4 crash/kernel panic/reboot with Kontakt 7

macOS 14.5 beta RC (release candidate) dropped a few hours ago as did Kontakt 7.10.2. I'll be looking at the Kontakt update later this evening but will stay put with 14.5 beta 4.

The RC is usually the same as the general release unless beta testers find a major bug.

Re: ULTRALITE MK3 Hybrid - Sonoma 14 Issues

… Has anyone else seen issues like this? I've never heard of anything like this. I suspect the cable adapter. You can buy what's called a USB Printer Cable — these support USB 2/1.1 only as required by CoreAudio on a Mac. These are available in all configurations — you will want one with a USB-B pl...

Re: 828x and adding 2nd stand alone ADAT procedure

The best way I know to get the 828mkII to remember settings is to turn it off before disconnecting.

Ok, It's still likely to be one of the two issues that I described. A screen shot doesn't tell us anything more than that.

Re: MIDI Express 128 stopped being recognized

There are a number of issues but the MOTU MIDI driver is not one of them. The installer and Apple Security settings, OTOH are. If your unit worked over Monterey, it will work over Ventura and Sonoma. Whether your Mac is Intel or Apple Silicon makes a difference. Also, any audio or other MIDI drivers...

NI has some suggestions and there's an experimental build of Kontakt available on request. Read about it here. https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/comment/152440#Comment_152440 I have commented on their monitor suggestions, all of which I tried and none of which worked for me.

macOS, iOS and iPadOS releases can lag up to a month but they eventually sync up.

Re: Greyed Out

It means that DP can’t see your projects. The usual cause is that you moved the project folder to a new location. Find the project, double-click and it will open DP and the app will know where it is — problem solved. I do this all the time as I manage my active and archived projects. If you have you...

As per BBC4 show earlier today, it was the longest symphony at the time, the first with a chorus, and was performed after only two rehearsals very soon after it was written.
