I have been testing, re-testing and re-re-testing, but Apple's PackageMaker is a lot of fun (and frustration).
So, can anyone confirm Corona R4 Mac Demo installs correctly on his DAW?
Thanks.
Is Corona Mac installer working OK for you?

I'm on 10.6.7 and it installed just fine. I loaded it into Live8 without incident. However, I did not try to play it because I might like it and then have to buy it. So I deleted it (j/k) I'll check it out (with the new filter stuff later)

I'm on 10.7.4
... am having the same issues as when I tried out the Discovery demo installer for you George.
Neither VST or AU are found in Kore2 or Maschine (64 & 32 bit) after scanning.
They'll open in Studio One and Ableton Live but when I try to load a preset that needs a wav file it tells me it's missing.

Alan, maybe it's related to Kore2 or Maschine looking for Corona stuff at System wide locations instead user home. Not a simple issue to solve I think 
Better discuss this thru PM.

The permissions may be getting set wrong. I've had a similar issue with Synthmaster and I understand this is one of the biggest irritations of PackageMaker in that it's hard to get permissions set up for the current user. I tend to notice it because my regular UID on this machine is 504 with a GID of 504, not the usual post-Tiger default of UID=501, GID=20. People who have used Migration Assistant in the past tend to wind up with a UID that isn't 501, which means you can end up with stuff installed for "Unknown User" if there isn't a script to fix up the UID to the current user after PackageMaker does the copy.
The upshot is that OS X can get confused because the files aren't assigned to the current user or to their group.
There is one other issue, the plugins themselves are being installed as user=root and group=wheel which may or may not be causing some issues.
The bank 2 presets are claiming that Voices.dwb/uuuu.sf2 is missing. There is no Voices.dwb file or folder that I can find in the Corona waves and stuff folder.
Finally, is this Corona 4? While checking the package contents in Pacifist, I noticed that it says Corona 3.1 and files such as Info.plist date back to January. As I can't find the switch for the 0DF filter, I'm wondering if this is correct. As it installed to the system folders, I'm assuming I've got the newest release.

That was a small mistake on a single preset and it's fixed on a new installer. It should be ready in 5 minutes.Gamma-UT wrote:The bank 2 presets are claiming that Voices.dwb/uuuu.sf2 is missing. There is no Voices.dwb file or folder that I can find in the Corona waves and stuff folder.
