Is there a way to fix superslow downloads on Native Access? MacOS 14
I know it has been mentioned before, but since there's no solution I thought I'd post my bad experience with download speeds on Native Access. I'm quite sure Native Instruments is the issue, as my Arturia and Spitfire updates succeeded at about 800Mbit/s. Positive as I am, I'm here to find a solution instead of only…

No more kernel panics with macOS Tahoe 26 (so far)
It seems that macOS Tahoe 26 has solved the kernel panic problems many users had with NI software. I’ve been using Reaktor on my M4 Pro MacBook Pro with macOS 26.0 daily for over a week now, and I haven’t had a crash yet. The same setup inevitably crashed macOS 15 after a few hours. I’m growing cautiously optimistic that…

Guitar Rig 7: switching presets live with a midi foot controller
