will plug ins work under lion?

Post by Mr.G » Mon Sep 19, 2011 3:32 pm

Hi,
i've just got a new MacBook Pro and i can download lion for free during the first 30 day.
But I've only heard a bad things about lion from other musicians espacially concerning plug ins.
Will non of my plug ins work without an upgrade?
thank you
Gavin

I´ve got Lion and it´s crap. Many "functions" are a step back, really. No one needs that, maybe later but at the moment it´s just causing problems like it seems.
Computers: Mac Pro (MacPro4,1) with OS 10.6.7 / MacBook Pro with OS 10.7 / Motu Ultralite v1
Synths: Access Ti, Curetronic Modular, Roland System 100 and some diy gear.
Software: OS-X, Ableton 8, Logic 9, Oddity, Ohmforce, iZotope, Waves...

lion no longer supports PPC applications, so i had many plugins i had to ditch on the way over to lion. be forwarned.

yes, power PC. check to see if the ones you often use are PPC. i'm guessing newer plugins will adapt to this if they want their plugs used on newer macs...
