Apple should be doing more to help these companies make the transition, recognizing that Mac users are a small percentage of the overall market and smaller companies would have difficulty resource wise making the change over.

If Apple wants more people to convert from PC, they need to make sure there is as much software as possible available for their newest computers. So it is in their best interest to make things easier for companies to write programs for Mac.

I can certainly buy into apple sucking a bag of shmegma, but too many companies have done it.....and well I might add.......for there not to be at least one.....

Oh wait, there are......they cost much much more

Has anyone made the Knights who say NI joke yet?

If not, consider it mentioned.

Tassman, Moog Modular, Oddiity, etc. the list goes on of companies that have not released UB versions yet. That only say "soon" when asked about a time frame.

The only problem I have with NI is they release a projected dater for completion, and it's really impossible for any company to really know when a complete rewrite of your software will be done. So mac loyalists, who refuse to acknowledge to any degree that it's at all Apple's fault, take issue with NI for simply trying to inform their users when they think they might be done with the port.

Reality is Apple gave ZERO notice for the introduction of Intel chips, ZERO notice that they would shave SIX MONths off the introduction of the hardware, and NI coded all their mac plugs in CodeWarrior which up until then was just fine. NI aren't the only ones caught off guard, there really are only about half the plug ins on the intel macs right now, period.

You guys want to whine and bitch like little kids because NI tried to let you in on the details, but seriously, companies like PSP that don't say anything at all piss me off more. At least I have the impression that NI are working on it.

Not sure why NI are easy targets for the mac crowd, it's getting old though. stability issues really aren't that bad on my machines, and it just seems like hot air.

spectrasonics at least have Stylus RMX running perfect as i own it but yeah their other stuff isnt evidently cause it was originally bought from other companies and they didnt plan ahead as well..
I see EZDrummer from Toontracks is working perfect.. I just got that and am very pleased
