![]() ![]() I’ve just mentioned the 32bits apps for x86 here but it would be great to run PowerPC apps on recent machines too. Personally, I have affection for the (more mainstream maybe) Reaktor factory collection from the late 90s. If it is, is it possible on M1 too ? (My main music computer now)Īll the softwares mentioned above are a wonderful source of inspiration, I didn’t know most of them but I’m glad I discovered them thanks to this thread. Using a container ? Vagrant ? I’m really not familiar with those, I don’t even know if it’s possible.Using a virtualization environment ? If so, which OS do you recommend ? Because El Capitan in // is not stable at all on a yet super powerful MBP.Using a dedicated oldish intel mac until the machine dies ?.So, back to my question: how to use these classic softwares and patches on recent and future Mac ? It took three computers and Parallels and three cable adapters just to create a bootable USB of OSX Lion and install it but that’s another « Amazing! » story, I’m not sure yet if that’s a viable solution because I’m not done with that yet. Plan B was to use a MBP Core2Duo (the old white MacBooks from 2009) with a new SSD. On a MBP 16inches (Intel), I have installed El Capitan on Parallels 17 but the thing is so slow that it seems impossible to use this as a permanent solution. And on M1, using these classic softwares is even less feasible I’m afraid.Īs an example, although I’m very happy with the latest version of the wonderful Argeïphontes Lyre which I’ve just discovered, I have tried to install older builds of it to see how things had evolved over time and if the « nomenclature » of the controls and algorithms was different in L1, 元 etc. It’s even worse with Monterey, this thing won’t even let you create a bootable USB for another computer. How do you run classic software and patches on recent Mac ?Ĭatalina, Big Sur and Monterey won’t let you run 32bits apps and I’ve seen that Apple has made everything they can to prevent users from downgrading MacOS. ![]() A quick side note, I don’t want to derail this fascinating thread too much but…
