Hi!
I am the creator of this synthesizer.
I just want to say that I love macintosh, indeed, I am typing in one right now! The synth just isn´t available for mac – simple as that – no need to get wrong conclusions!
As I get that question so often, I decided to let be very clear! Just that!
Cheers from Oporto, Portugal!
