The plugins I use include Fabfilter, Soundtoys, Waves, Softube, Slate, Soundtheory, Zynaptic, Soundradix, Izotope, Native Instruments, Lexicon, Eventide, East West, Spectrasonics, UHE, Celemony, flux, Kush, Scuffham amps, Sonnox, Synapse Audio, Sonarworks, Tokyo Dawn Labs, Plugin Alliance (Brainworx, etc), Toontracks, Output and Sugarbytes. All the updated plugins work faultlessly including Waves plugins which need Authorisation using an app which comes with the waves installation.

As for Logic Pro X it works faultlessly with the latest update which unlike the exorbitant prices Avid charge was free.
#LEXICON LAMBDA DRIVER MAC SIERRA UPGRADE#
So eventually I'll need to upgrade to ver 12 but it actually works reasonably well with all the updated plugins and doesn't glitch out or stop suddenly, so it's still usable. Menus and buttons sometimes get screwed up (but restarting the app cures that) and some of the old instruments which come with Pro Tools don't work properly.
Pro Tools 11 doesn't work so well in Sierra, as it can't import audio via the File menu, you have to drag and drop. Well it was a long road to get everything working again and most plugins and DAWs needed updating to versions which were stable in Sierra.
I upgraded to Sierra, with a totally clean install, and reinstalled all my DAW software and Plugins from scratch. I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade. I wanted to also use Logic Remote and again Mavericks did not run the version of Logic which could use Logic Remote. Version 2 mice don't work in Mavericks, plus I was using Logic Pro X and Pro Tools 11.3.2. I realize you probably don't have the luxury of downgrading, installing and authorizing before moving on to Sierra, and you may not actually even have the problems I did, but it is something you should be aware of.Ĭlick to expand.I was on Mavericks OSX and a late 2013 MB Pro and it was very stable, except that I needed a new magic mouse. I didn't have any real problems after that. So many plugs and VIs were out of whack, I wound up wiping my drive and starting over from Lion, making sure incompatible software and plugs were removed and that everything else was authorized properly before installing. The first time I upgraded my OS, it was from Lion to El Capitan, I hadn't bothered to authorize everything first, figuring I'd do it in El Cap. HOWEVER, you upgrading from Mountain Lion may be a concern for authorizing your older software/plugs.
I didn't see a lot of other compatibility issues. I upgraded to Sierra recently, and because TechTools Pro 9 and Quicken weren't quite ready yet, I wound up downgrading back to El Cap for the moment (I'll probably be taking the Sierra plunge again next week!). I'm on the latest version of El Capitan, which got pretty stable there by 10.11.6.
