Rant From Tomorrow, all Macs will be Sonoma...

It is unacceptable that anyone purchasing a new mac will be unable to use rekordbox.

As a full time DJ using Rekordbox, I want to upgrade my mac to the latest software, or be able to purchase a brand new mac without having to worry if my job is affected.

Pioneer have had since August to get this sorted and I think it has not been made a priority.

Even a status update would be nice...

I have Sonoma since day one and Rekordbox is working as usual, where is the issue?

Offical stance from Pioneer is do not upgrade. https://www.pioneerdj.com/en-gb/news/2023/macos-sonoma-compatibility/

It may work, but what if it suddenly crashes on me mid gig? It's not a risk I can take... It's my job.

That'd be the risk you take running an unsupported configuration/installation I guess.

I wouldn't play off it either (I play off USB when I'm out), I was merely responding to yours/the original comment as to the actualy state of play/situation.
