MC6 and FCP7 on the same osx 10.6.8 machine? 10.7.2 needed?

[thomas saron] “Anyone with MC6 on 10.6.8?-“

Well, FYI, Avid doesn’t support MC6 on 10.6.8. It will work, but reliably?

Do you have a MacPro…so you can add another drive and install Lion on that drive and then Avid…so you have two boot drives?

im using final cut pro 7.03 and MC 5.5.3 on Lion 10.7.2 and its all working great at the moment. Had alot of bugs in MC 6 so iwent back to 5.5

but FCP 7 does work and work well on 10.7.2

thanks for sharing your experience!
-what kind of bugs? i alway though avid was stable …

[Shane Ross]

Mainly UI issues. Some of them are maddening though. Resizing timeline or Composer window will stop at some point and refuse further resizing. The mixer interface is now too damn big…but that’s a feature, not a bug (a feature I don’t like).

im having the interface bugs. windows open outside of viewable moniter space, wont remember my workspaces, etc. And the real show stopper which is lighting up the Avid forums is the Exception:ADM_COREAUDIO_UNDERRUN pop up i and alot of others are getting, just trying to playback a timeline.

So while i love the new interface, the open i/o, and faster more responsice MC 6.. i cant use it yet 🙁
