Hi all!
Since I know this is a very old program, and it's free, so no request for bug fixes or demands for upgardes as it has been "discontinued" since 2014, I have no one else to turn to but here. Niall Moody has moved on to other endeavours. I have made a lot of mileage out of it, since it is a very handy vst/au standalone thing for guitar plugins and others.

I've used both the MAC version and PC (32 bit) version. But here comes the problem with Max OsX. 10.11 (not the latest upgrade).

1. All of a sudden it has stopped working. It starts for a few seconds and the closes down with an error report with a lot of gibberish that I can't understand.
2. Tried to reinstall it, and delete as many instances of the "appdata" folders and "components" that I can find, to no avail.
3. NO upgrade has been made since it last worked (sometime early this autumn).
4. No new additional plugins has been installed (reverb, synths or whatever) at all. Or upgrades on any of them.
5. I tried to Google it for sure, for a couple of months now.

Now, I don't want to re-do all the stuff again, the *.pdl files, since I even can't start the Pedalboard2 at all, to re-create all things. If only that were possible I would go through it again. There was a select *.pdl file with internal settings for all plugins that wasn't saved INSIDE those particular plugins, so it's just the settings in the *.pdl file that is "nailed" and the "sweet spot". No use transferring the *pdl file to the PC version either. One is 32 bit and the other (mac) 64 bit.

No security programs /anti-virus/firewalls exists on the Mac, that may have cause trouble. It has worked before and just stopped working for apparently no reason. It doesn't even load.

I wonder if someone has some hints/tips/tricks of folders on the Mac OsX where I should peep and remove something in order to install/run from scratch. Mind you, Mac OsX only.
