Hey,

Does anyone still use Dune 1 on newer Macbooks and OSX? I love Dune 1 more than Dune 2 and Dune 3 for various reasons.

I'm currently using Dune 1 on Logic Pro X 10.4.1 and macOS Mojave on a Macbook Pro 13 inch Mid 2012.

Thinking about buying a new Macbook Pro and thinking if any of the newer Logic Pro X and Macbook versions still support Dune 1 on Mac?

Anyone with insights?

not on mac but on windows. love dune 1 more than 2 and 3 myself. the computer music version though mind you, but still the same synth minus the effects plus fewer modulation slots. great synth. ENV| made two fantastic skins for v1. look it up here on kvr

I haven't used DUNE 1 since DUNE 2 came out and I haven't used DUNE 2 since DUNE 3 came out. Each version is superior to the last in my opinion.

I somehow doubt DUNE 1 would work on newer Macs since the OS has a tendency to break things with each update and how many updates have their been to Mac OS since 2012 ?

You might try posting your question at the Synapse forums as the developers are far more likely to see it there.

I love DUNE 1...

I know that the newer versions have better specs,but there are some things about the original that just make it "work"...

An updated version with WT import,a resizeable GUI and some new filters and effects would be cool,but leave the workflow alone because it's a winner

If it's running on Mojave, then it's 64-bit. It should run on an M1 Mac, but it will be through Rosetta only.

Maybe if you ask nicely, they'll recompile it for ARM 64?

Mojave can still run 32-bit...

Dune v1 is a legacy product, no longer for sale, no longer supported (they will just tell you to upgrade)

its pot luck if it works on new macs, prob some workarounds....

As far as I know, Logic Pro X doesn't support 32bit plugins. So as long it works fine with 10.4.1, it should also work with the newest Pro X version.

Beside of that, it's not clear if it's run on Big Sur. Even plugins that work on Catalina, not necessary work flawless on Big Sur.

But that's only my experience with VST plugins, maybe with AU plugins it is different....

So if Dune 1 won't run, you won't upgrade your computer? That's a pretty tough requirement, if you really want to make it dependant on that...

I doubt anyone is using Dune 1 on M1 and is there actual Dune 1 demo installer available for someone that actually want to help you?

chk071 · Post by **chk071** » Tue Jul 13, 2021 12:44 pm

You could also use Dune CM, which is on every Computer Music issue's file content.

So one that have M1 should go and buy CM issue, than go hunt for download of Dune and finally find out should dasen buy M1, think only EnGee is that awesome.

Sure I would like to help. I do have CM with Dune 1 but not sure if it has AU. I will try in the morning and report back.
