MUSIC producers have been advised to wait before installing the new macOS Catalina update due to incompatibilities.

Brands such as Numark and Ableton have released tweets advising their users to hold off on updating their mac operating system until the problems have been fixed.

UPDATE: Serato Pitch ‘n Time, Slate Digital, and Native Instruments products also appear to be affected

The issues also affect 32-bit apps, which have lost support, with Apple dropping compatibility with the new update. This could affect certain applications and plugins.

STOP!! ⚠️Mac users: Numark products and accompanying software are not yet compatible with macOS Catalina. Due to this incompatibility, we ask all customers to WAIT until we announce official support before upgrading to macOS 10.15. We will inform you when it is safe to upgrade. pic.twitter.com/wPHXZvkU6Q — Numark (@Numark) September 10, 2019
