Hi All - Currently using an Intel Mac but it’s getting old now so I need to upgrade to Apple Silicon.
I appreciate there’s a known problem with SG driver on Apple Silicon so my question is how many users out there are successfully using SG / DigiGrid / M / Q / D / IOX etc. with new Apple Silicon M3 / M4 imac / mini / stuido etc. without dropouts despite the warning from Waves?
In addition, does anyone have any update of the progress to resolve these issues?
I love the converters and stablity of the SG network but can’t risk introducing dropouts with Silicon Mac.
Many thanks everyone
