I'm in the same boat. I'm kind of done with Mac though because Catalina broke a bunch of VST's I used and Live 9. I'm not paying for an upgrade on Ableton Live because an OS upgrade. It's not even that old. Live 1 still installs on Windows just fine. I guess Catalina is getting us used to all the stuff breaking and never working on ARM. People really expect someone like Propellerheads Reason to work on ARM? It doesn't even have 4k support. Mark my words, there is going to be big name music software that will never work on Arm. They'll just turn in to Windows only support. At least then they don't have to rewrite their software every two years for Mac. These codebases go back decades. I had to downgrade to Mojave but how long is that actually going to work. Stuff moves too fast on Apple. I can install old deprecated software and Windows and it boots up just fine. Cakewalk Project 5 for example and load up projects that are 15 years old. All of the old Cakewalk VST's still work fine on Windows but stopped working on Mac at Yosemite. It's just pitiful. If I wasn't a mobile developer I would have dropped Mac in a heartbeat. |
