Launching MC jams at "initializing audio effects" or initializing MCstate" -- application not responding, needs to be force quitted. Tried a dozen times, not once have I had success.
MBP late-2013 model, 16GB ram, macOS 10.12.5, latest PTHD installed
Hi Janne,
Could you look at this old thread and follow the delete various settings suggestions in Randall L Rike's post of Feb 27 2007 Specifically the MCstate settings. The path to the settings is for PC but should be very similar via your User for the Mac. Uninstall MC | First.
Unplug any iLok keys you have attached and reinstall MC | First. Then open MC | First. If it gets pat initializing Audio and MCstate it should open. You can ignore the warning that some plug-ins will not be available.
If you have got MC | First open then next time you restart it you should be able to have your iLok key attached and have it still work.
FWIW I am in the process of installing MC | First on a 3.1 Mac Pro with 10.10.5 with Pro Tools 12.7 HD to try it at present.
Good Luck! Andrew
PS The install worked the first time here using my suggestions above and a couple of other Pro Tools related precautions added to our Duc thread.
