OSX Mountain Lion is now out! Post your results with various digital DJ programs
Posted on: 25.07.2012 by Rosina Steinkuehler
About to upgrade to OSX Mountain Lion but wanted to check to see if anyone was a bit more daring than me and has already completed their upgrade?

If I do not hear back I will post results of Mountain Lion + Traktor 2.5.1.

Enjoying the free safari update. Noticed some new features and it's much quicker.

EDIT: you can install it on ALL your macs. I was mixing up the itunes content authorization which only allows you to play itunes content on up to 5 machines.

Its pretty early to say this but I am noticing much more 'peppiness' or 'snappiness' if you will in everything I have thrown at it. Traktor, iTunes, Chrome, etc, etc. Still testing - should have some more info later today but so far its been great!

I've installed it on my iMac and it runs Traktor 2.5.1 and Maschine like a dream I believe that Maschine is running better on Mauntain lion. I backed up everything last week just to be ready but it just installed over and everything was still innstalled and ready to go after the upgrade. Those new futures most of them I'll probable never use and I whis I can find a way to disable that notification thing when I'll install on my DJ macbook because I hate haveing stuff I never use on a computer.

Well they are supposed to be your own machines but you can burn the downloaded img file to a usb flash card or dvd for installation http://lifehacker.com/5928780/how-to...sb-flash-drive

To be honest I'm not really excited about any of the new features.. the only one I can believe of is the talk to type, which will probably work like crap

There is some kind of beta driver out now from NI:



Dear Native Instruments user,

This newsletter provides important information about the compatibility of Native Instruments hardware products with MacOS 10.8, as well as with the current-generation MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models equipped with USB 3.0 ports.

Due to USB audio driver issues present in recent versions of OSX, some NI products will experience a degraded audio signal when used with OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion" on any Apple hardware. The same issue occurs with the current-generation MacBooks under 10.7 using USB 3.0. Specifically, the following NI products are affected:

AUDIO 2 DJ / AUDIO 4 DJ / AUDIO 8 DJ
AUDIO KONTROL 1
GUITAR RIG MOBILE
GUITAR RIG SESSION
KORE 1
RIG KONTROL 2 / RIG KONTROL 3
TRAKTOR AUDIO 2
TRAKTOR KONTROL S4

Native Instruments has provided beta drivers* for these hardware devices to make them fully compatible with the newest Apple technologies. If you own one of the affected devices and run the latest MacOS version 10.8, or have a MacBook with USB 3.0, you can download and install the beta drivers from our unprotected drivers and updates page....

Best regards,

The Native Instruments team
