Hello Community

Since I lately owned those two mentioned above, now it comes into question, that my (actual) used MacOS (10.15.7) seems to be too old/outdated to be usable wit those two HW devices; esp. with their included SW bundles.

Where/How can I find out which may be the last and oldest MacOS version the included SW & HW for those two devices will work with? So that not to be forced to now also by a new MAC.

(Pls. do not suggest to use windows; I am fed-up with this ****** sh...)

Thanks for your responses.

Kind regards,

Roger

For both KOMPLETE KONTROL S88 and MASCHINE+ is macOS 11, 12, 13

So, MacOS 11 is the older compatible version. However, i am not a Mac expert, maybe there is a workaround for earlier Mac versions, yet, if there is, it will not be officially supported.
