Actually it seems lots of Sytrus and Harmor patches do not load properly in the Mac version - it's impossible to go through any of the third party banks without several patches screaming loud distorted walls of noise.

Also is it planned for Edison to come to Mac? - that I would love to see as there is nothing anything like it on Mac.

For Sytrus several patches from the bank 'Butterfly Effect', for Harmor just stuff collected from the IL forum preset thread. I will send a couple over later when back from work.Image-Line wrote:Hi what 3rd party banks/patches are you using?aMUSEd wrote:Actually it seems lots of Sytrus and Harmor patches do not load properly in the Mac version - it's impossible to go through any of the third party banks without several patches screaming loud distorted walls of noise.

What about my user preset location question? Where do I put/save patches so they will show in the browsers?

That would be cool - I can't wait to see Edison on Mac, one of the most useful plugins ever created.Image-Line wrote:Well, everything is 'planned'...otherwise there can be no FL Studio on OS XaMUSEd wrote:Also is it planned for Edison to come to Mac? - that I would love to see as there is nothing anything like it on Mac.

Pleased to say the patch loading issues with Sytrus are fixed and it plays nicely on Mac now.
However some of the third party patches that were not making a sound at all in Harmor previously are now causing it to crash (e.g. the Che electro set).
GUI seems more responsive but still has some lagginess.
edit - it looks like the crashes may have been due either to characters in the bank names or depth of path, I have edited the bankname and made it less deep and now they don't cause a crash, but many of the Electro bank still sound distorted, although they at least load now.

I sent you the whole bank in my last email, from that bank, for example, patch 00 doesn't make any sound, patch 04, 07 and 08 are distorted.Image-Line wrote:Thanks for the feedback.aMUSEd wrote:edit - it looks like the crashes may have been due either to characters in the bank names or depth of path, I have edited the bankname and made it less deep and now they don't cause a crash, but many of the Electro bank still sound distorted, although they at least load now.

Not one of this new bank will load in the Mac Harmor - they all make no change to the existing sound (so if init the sound is init, if another patch they don't change it):aMUSEd wrote:I sent you the whole bank in my last email, from that bank, for example, patch 00 doesn't make any sound, patch 04, 07 and 08 are distorted.Image-Line wrote:Thanks for the feedback.aMUSEd wrote:edit - it looks like the crashes may have been due either to characters in the bank names or depth of path, I have edited the bankname and made it less deep and now they don't cause a crash, but many of the Electro bank still sound distorted, although they at least load now.

Harmor doesn't seem to like being wrapped in JBridge for Mac (to make it 64 bit) - lots of distortion even when I increase the audio buffer. Sytrus seems to run OK wrapped though.
