| This is amazing and well appreciated news Ralph! Thanks so much for the update! I've been monitoring these Mac topic threads since I ditched Windows in 2011. Patience is a virtue, and I have had nothing but complete faith in you and your excellent product and support. |

The visual interface is having serious issues, including unacceptable CPU usage. These problems are in a 3rd party framework that we are using. We have spent enormous time trying to solve those issues and waiting for the vendor to fix/improve them as well. Since we can't wait any longer, we are now rebuilding the visual interface with a different framework from another vendor, which appears to be much faster and efficient. I cannot estimate time for this task properly as it depends on any migration issues that the new framework might throw at us.
The good news is that A.I., audio engine, data management, song structures etc. are all working on OSX by now so things are progressing. We just have to get the interface done and then we can go Beta with you guys. |
cool. : ) |

| Finally some encouraging news. The downside being the visual interface problems in the MAC version. There are still problems with the windows interface in the latest version so I hope it doesn't get worse with the MAC version. Let's keep our fingers crossed. I'm ready for beta testing. |

| I've been waiting for about two years now for this. Not complaining though, there's plenty on the market to keep my attention. But nothing quite like Jamstix. I'll be one of the first in line!!!! |

| Great to hear!!! This will solve a LOT of problems for me, since I can't get Wine to work on my system well. |

About 5 (five) years waiting, and still not even in beta for OSX….
I forgot all I knew about making Jamstix work since I didn't touch a Windows machine (and don't start me about the workarounds, this is by no means a way to have a decent workflow…)
When I bought the Windows license, the Mac version was announced for 1st quarter 2010, we're a long way past this and I'm still checking from time to time but no interesting news comes along besides the sempiternal Windows sub-versions and releases.
The time span is so large that OSX had 3 different versions since the promised Mac release and I'm sure every one of them could have broken something video or audio-related.
I would really love to be proved wrong but I don't see a working version of Jamstix on the mac coming anytime soon |

I can help you. Did you try JamstixWine, its all self contained. |
