There is a good chart of audio software that is compatible (or not) with MacOS Ventura. Studio One does not seem to be supported.

I am using Studio One v6 with a RME Babyface Pro and all is working very well.

According to the list of compatibility from the post above, Presonus states that the software should be ok but Presonus hardware is not OK.

No problems so far, with my setup. Although I'm only doing very simple stuff etc

I feel they're kind of hedging here. "...should be ok" is probably not something you'd want to bet an important project on.

If you go to this page https://support.presonus.com/hc/en-us/a ... patibility they state: "We do not recommend upgrading to macOS 13 at this time"

Of course, it could be that I'm just an alarmist and a luddite. I'm still back on Big Sur.

Thanks Scott & Doug for your feedback, was really just curious what other's experiences were.

From everything I've read from lots of vendors, the upgrade from Monterey to Ventura hasn't been as disruptive or problematic as the upgrade was to Monterey

Doug - I waited on Big Sur a longggg time, but had to make the mostly painful move to Monterey when I got my M1 Studio Max. I'm also now running Studio One v5.5/v6 in ARM mode, and everything is working very well (knock on wood).

Nothing added in Ventura is a must-have for me, so I don't mind waiting.

I keep meaning to upgrade to Monterey, but I haven't found the time (because I'm lazy.)

Honestly, though...I was using Monterey, and I started seeing degrading disk I/O on some of my external drives. Then I went back to Big Sur and found that it was simply the drives were failing. So I will upgrade after I've done enough research to ensure that my networked backups will work just as well as they do now.

I updated to Ventura. Now I know I shouldn't have. I have Studio One V4 Professional. and it crashes when I try to open it. I spent a whole day trying to figure out how to revert back to Monterey. From what I can tell it's a process that I'm not willing to risk.

On the bright side it will force me to get off my wallet and upgrade to version 6.

Configured a Ventura system on a thunderbolt attached SSD. So far Studio One v6 installed and runs fine. Presonus Quantum, Faderport 8 (and my old original Faderport... kind of like the Ever-ready bunny) and Universal Control all seem ok so far. All Fabfilter plugins installed and work well. UVI instruments installed and are behaving well too. Checking out Toontrack VIs and so far ok.

I updated and now regretting it.

Kontakt is no longer seeing my external Sandisk SSD drive.
Trying to get it sorted with NI Support but no luck so far.

How is your SSD attached? Direct or through a hub? Thunderbolt or USB?
I have all my NI, Heavyocity, CineSamples and Sonuscore, samples on 2 SSDs in an OWC thunderbolt enclosure and Kontakt 7 (player) is working as expected. Which type and version of Kontakt are you using? Kontakt player of full?

I did and it does not support Studio One 4.

Gonna have to upgrade to Studio One 6. Hopefully that works.

Forgive me for chiming in on this, but I've been seeing this for years. I just don't understand why "that company" continuously puts out new OS's that break stuff upon release.

I'm not getting into a mac/pc thing because it's like politics, you can't win But I keep seeing this and wondering if they even care. All the companies that make the endless amount of 3rd party gear are trying to keep up, but they do seem to struggle at getting thing compatible with something that in my opinion, shouldn't be so difficult.

Many of you WORK on this for a living, it just shouldn't be that hard.

Anyways, believe it or not, I feel the pain. I love new stuff. And windoze people are not immune either, on the somewhat rarer occasions they release new OS's, there is also almost always a growing pain scenario with what seems to be endless waiting

Color me crazy, but it just seems that developers should be able to test things in advance with new OS's and be prepared, but it seems that OS developers are not really working together on this. Surprising, considering what a large part of computing we make up overall.

A large group of plugin and software vendors that I use all sent out emails asking that there customers wait a little longer until they finish testing there products for compatibility with Ventura

I can wait Ventura is not going to speed things up or does it have a killer feature that I can't live without NO

Years ago I worked as a test manager for an enterprise mobile app. Believe me when I say: the developers DO Test from the very beginning (first beta of new OS). But it was sometimes really a pain. I don‘t recall exact version, but it happened that until beta 8 of iOS everything was fine, but towards release of the iOS in September they fundamentally changed the push notification process and everything was broken. Required weeks of examination, finding a workaround, implementing it, testing it…

So I feel the pain with being an Apple customer. I‘m a Mac user myself, but sometimes I hate their ignorance.

Interesting, well then there is not much that can be done

I had automatic updates on it's a disaster.

My StudioLive 32r is useless now..

I have a quantum 2626 and a M1 Mac. The quantum has been crashing for a couple of months. Tried everything. Back and forth with support. Apples says hardware issue. Support says Apple security issue. Nothing solved.Thought I would try and update to Ventura. Acts a little different, but still crashes. So, even if I went back to Monterey it wouldn't matter. Waiting for the firmware update. Which I'm sure won't help me. May have to ditch it all and get a pc and new interface.
