happens all the time, if you do trust it, which I do...
immediately after trying to install it (and failing)...

Apple>System Settings>Privacy & Security>

then scroll down to the bottom and choose 'Open' for L2Ork.

it'll then install/open it, based on your trust.

....at present L2Ork is loading my Purr Data patches fine, not sure what might be broke or incompatible, hopefully no nasty surprises down the line.

A couple of issues though on the latest MacOS,

• copy and paste often stops working altogether, and I use copy and paste a lot, so that's a big deal. Have you found this to be an issue also?

• my MOTU audio interface as the selected audio with 4 channels, sometimes reverts back to internal Mac audio. Then when selecting MOTU again, L2Ork crashes. After numerous attempts it eventually accepts the audio interface, but this has happened several times now.

• a niggle about the colour selector for background, foreground etc of controls, it's just a colour wheel and numerical input. With Purr Data I'd got used to quickly applying the same preset colours available and also dragging custom colours to a 'bank' of user colours. Now I need to note down numerical values if I want to use the same colour again - not quick or intuitive.

Copy & paste which stops working is the biggest issue though.

Been using PD for over 10 years (maybe 15), went over to PD Extended while it lasted, then to L2Ork which I seem to remember had issues for me. Anyway Purr Data has been good, ability to zoom into a large patch, graphics is finer and sharp, clean not distracting, multiple chord connection etc etc, it works great, and is actively being developed.

But adc~ is not now working on my new Mac, otherwise everything else seems to work.

I check in PD Vanilla 0.55-2, and adc~ works (on my new M4 Mac), so it's definitely a Purr Data issue (with newer Macs / OS) - maybe as it's based on PD 0.48.

I had an issue with Purr Data many years ago, with wrap~, and somehow I contacted the developers of Purr Data directly, and they sorted it out in the next release. Can't remember how I did that, but will try to connect them now.

Ok in 'desperation' I thought I'll look back into PD-L2Ork, got the latest Version 20241224 (rev.8b297e12) for Mac Silicon here...

After several crashes trying to set my audio interface and channel amounts in Edit>Settings, it now works, all is good, looks exactly like Purr Data, ~adc works, as do all my involved patches.

So actually you did provide the solution!

Now I wonder why Purr Data exists alongside L2Ork, as to me they look and act the same?

Previously been using an older MacBook Pro with OSX 10.10, and PurrData, all good.

New MacBook Pro M4 Max, and PurrData v2.19.3 from here... (2.20 was reported as damaged by the OS)...

https://github.com/agraef/purr-data/releases

PurrData v2.19.3 and v2.19.2 work fine, but there's no audio coming in from ~adc.

Opened a DAW, Reaper, set the input channels correctly, and there's audio coming in - to my new MacBook Po M4 Max. So the audio interface - a MOTU, is fine, and set up correctly ...it's just PurrData - there's nothing coming in from ~adc (I tried hooking up all input channels ~adc 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8, and still nothing). Otherwise midi flows back and forth ok, and audio is sent out to the audio interface (via ~dac), but ~adc is dead ...and just to reiterate Reaper hears the input on those channels fine - but PurrData doesn't.

The audio properties in PurrData are set up fine, the audio interface selected, and multiple channels - so all good there (and I've using PD for many many years).

Anyone come across this - what to do?
