Voluum control app for Mac: 64-bit version

Post by tfeb »

The Voluum control app for the Mac is a 32-bit program, which means it just about runs now and will not run soon. Are there plans for a 64-bit version? I only really use it to back up presets &c just in case, but it would be nice to have.

This is something we've been looking at, but unfortunately it's not a simple case of just rebuilding the code to make it 64-bit. Apple decided to remove a lot of supported features when moving from 32-bit to 64-bit, so a lot of the underlying OSX code needs to be rewritten from scratch to make it work on 64-bit.

So, we're looking at it, but it won't happen quickly.

That sounds like familiar Apple behaviour. Thanks for the reply & sorry I didn't notice it months ago. Still very happy with my Voluum!

Don't want to discuss further on this topic, but to express also my interest in a working control app for macOS Catalina.
