Hi all,
I made the jump to Snow Leopard (10.6) in the hopes that it would
solve some longstanding problems I've been having with audio dropouts.
However, I think those issues must be hardware-related, as a
completely clean install of 10.6 brings no relief.
Anyway, as far as Finale goes, everything worked fine until I
installed Finale 2010. Then I discovered that the Garritan Instruments
for Fin2010 cause *every* version of Finale to crash on launch in Snow
Leopard. Thankfully, there is an update available from MakeMusic that
fixes the problem. Once I applied that patch, all version of Finale on
my machine (2004-2010) now appear to be functioning normally.
The other thing to watch for is that a lot of combined audio+MIDI
interface (including mine) don't have 10.6 drivers yet. But if your
MIDI interface uses the Mac OS X driver instead of a third-party
driver, you should be fine. (My M-Audio Oxygen8 keyboard works fine,
for instance.)
Cheers,
- DJA
