<![CDATA[Helllo everyone / Audio Unit for *very* old Mac?]]>Hi all,

first post! 🎉

I came here because I feel I might be ready for something like this now.

I was wondering if I can use HISE to create an AU instrument for a 2010 build Mac Mini OS (10.6.8) running Logic Pro 9.1.6.

I thought about a simple sampler instrument with ADSR and an adjustable start point (loop points, automation and GUI optional) – something Logic weirdly never had all this time (I think it does now).

I guess I might just get a new DAW at this point but to be honest using the same setup for going on 16 years has become a bit of a point of pride for me, and I've always wanted to try my hand at writing a plugin.

Is this even practical? I guess the compatibility could be a bit of a logistics problem.

Thanks,

Marco

By a hair.

Yes it would have been a bespoke little thing just for my needs.

I'm not very hopeful about finding plugins. The Mac market in the 2000s was infamously sparse, especially in the sampler realm.

Still, it's a thought that didn't occur to me, thanks. I'll try and do a bit of research.

Cheers :-)

I'm guessing this is just for your own use, so why not use one of the many sampler plugins that already exist? Or use SFZ instead?
