Nord G2 editor in 64 bit for Mac OS X Catalina |
 |
|
Hello everybody,
Does anyone have any idea of a solution to keep editing Nord G2 with Mac OS X Catalina, the new OS that only runs 64 bit apps?
Thank you for your tips

A virtual machine like VMWare maybe, apparently older OSX versions can still run then .. USB could be tricky then, dunno. _________________ Jan

Surely somebody has "wine bottled" the 1.62 editor, no? I gave Wine a try but got completely lost in the configuration and didn't get anywhere. I do see that there is an older version of the editor on the Wine forum though (1.24 maybe?). _________________ Sleep Distillery

I'm curious about this as well. Getting to a point where I'll possibly need to freeze the OS of one of my machines to ensure I can still access the editor. |

Same here, cause eventually i have to upgrade due too my work.
I tried it with parallels running Windows7, but couldn't get it to work.
Maybe best solution is a dedicated (cheap old) laptop for the G2. _________________ if you don't know where you're going, you will allways arrive |

I was able to get it working in Mac Mojave and using parallels. The secret I found was an extremely short usb cord. I also got it working using a star tech thunderbolt 2 hub. And that was using a slightly longer usb cable. |

Hi there,
I know this is an older post, but is there now a solution to get the Nord G2 Editor work on Catalina?
I try it with crossover but I can't get connection, cause I don't know the port name.
On the codeweavers page theres a distrciption how to get the port name but for me that didn't work. The terminal didn't show me any names of the ports only for my bluetooth controller.
For Infos here is the link: https://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/mac/mactutorial/usbtoserial2
Maybe someone made it by now!
Thanks,
RyanB |

I would love to hear any sort of update about this as well.
In the meantime, I'm happy to install bootcamp and dual boot; it's just a bit of an inconvenience. I will say that the list of apps I need to run on windows is growing by the minute as Apple dropped 32-bit support and many of these pieces of freeware/shareware/minimal-donation-ware were 32bit only. _________________ t____

I tried CrossOver, but indeed, no hardware connection
For now i use Parallels running Windows7 and the Windows Editor. Works perfect (on macOS Cataline). _________________ if you don't know where you're going, you will allways arrive |

Thank you for the information.
Parallels seems seems to be the only solution tested with success, isn't it? |

As far as i tested, yes. And offcourse a dedicated old laptop.
But i'm very happi with the Parallels solution, it works perfect. And in coherence mode it's almost like a native mac app. _________________ if you don't know where you're going, you will allways arrive |

1m? Or even shorter… 0,5m?
Trying the Parallels-route with Catalina as well. Virtualized Windows 10 with Editor 1.62 seems to work perfectly. Virtualized High Sierra seems to constantly be producing MAJOR ERROR issues (loosing connection)… |
