MC6 and Mac OS 10.6.8
Posted by Chip Hess on July 31, 2012 at 8:18 pmAnybody know if it will run on Snow Leopard? I see Lion is recommended but don’t want to go there, given horror stories I have heard.

July 31, 2012 at 9:46 pmPeople have run it on Snow Leopard, but it’s not qualified. For the record, I still hear horror stories from Final Cut users about how horrible Avid is. Avid users give me horror stories about Final Cut. Horrors stories are all somewhat true but all mostly blown out of proportion. I’m using MC6 on 10.7.3 and haven’t noticed anything huge that didn’t also sometimes occur on MC 5.5.3 on 10.6.8. If you use Stage Tools a lot, I’ve heard about some issues with that, but I would recommend just moving to Lion and going with the recommended setup.

I recommend trying it 🙂
