How to open Torq in Maverick?

Alist3r,

does your Torq M-Audio and ReWire Subsystem support Mavericks? (Did you check before installing Mavericks?)

Alist3r,

Unfortunately, Torq is not supported under Mavericks. InMusic Brands took over Avid's DJ Software division, and they are no longer supporting or updating the M-Audio Torq (and other) software. Mine also stopped working when I went from Mountain Lion to Mavericks.

It's quite a shame, really.

It's possible that someone may find a way to make it work in the future, but it looks like for now we're out of luck.

You can try torqsupport@inmusicbrands.com for more information.

Best of luck,

Mauricio

Hello everybody!! My copy of TORQ latest version does work on Mavericks 10.9.1!

i don't know how it's possible...i explain my story...

I had Torq (latest version) installed on my MacBook Pro 13" Mid2009 with Mountain Lion and everything was working fine... i back upped everything with time machine on an external hard drive because i wanted to buy a new MacBook Air Mid2013.

i bought my new MacBook Air 2 days ago... it came out with Mavericks already installed on it... after i turned it on i reinstalled all my stuff from my old matchbook pro backup... so now i have all the applications and stuff on my new Mac, included Torq, that is actually running on Mavericks... don't know why... but maybe someone with this information can came out with a patch to make this possible for all...

Good Luck everyone

p.s. this is not a joke...it really work and i can prove it.

thanks

I also updated to OS X Mavericks. When I tried to use my Xponent with Torq DJ Software it would not work. I then used time machine to restore a backup. When using time machine it also restores the operating system. If you purchased a new mac with OS X Mavericks installed, then used time machine to restore your old applications, then you may have also have reverted to your old OS and no longer running OS X Mavericks. Torq does not have an update for OS X Mavericks, before updating, I would recommend time machine backup in case any of your important applications are not compatable. I will not upgrade until Torq is supported on OS X Mavericks. (Currently using Snow Leopard 10.6.8)

Hello.

I faced same problem and found that ReWire is tool from company Propellerheads. Tool it-self can be downloaded separately (don't go this way, I was unable to successfully install it on OSX 10.9) or as a part of product "Reason". I solved the problem by installing product "Propellerheads Reason Essentials" (it's located here: http://www.propellerheads.se/download/reason-essentials/), which seems to contains ReWire. After that I uninstalled Torq with mackeeper (but you can user CleanMyMac or remove it manually, it's up to you) and installed latest version again (as far as I know it is v2.0.3) ... Finally I was able to sucessfully start and user Torq. Hope this will help rest of community around M-Audio Torq which was indeed quite good product leave further on latest OSX version.

PS: Don't forget to install latest M-Audio driver (In my case it was Conectiv_OSX_1_8_0.dmg)

cheers,

Tomas.

Thanks !!! Torq working on my Mavericks 🙂

Kudos, This actually worked for me!!

Thank you so much 😀

How long have you been using this? Because I'm downloading now and its telling me this is a reason demo so I'm hoping everything isn't going to crap out if/when this "demo period" expires.

I have to say, I'm absolutely shocked but this works!! Its a 2.5 Gig file which didn't thrill me off the bat but seeing Torq running on my Mac is a really satisfying sight!

Moonspa - Thank you so much for posting this you saved me needing to find a new hobby!

LINK TO DOWNLOAD REWIRE

Hi kossivi,

As I explained in my previous msg, I was unable to successfully install rewire package. Someone might manage it, in my case however I never found binaries that was contained in the rewire package on expected location on my system HDD and was unable to trace out reason for that (problem during installation etc.) either. If anyone of you guys will find out way mentioned package can be installed successfully, don't hesitate to share it with rest of community.

Hi Drewtime,

So far for about 2 months and it is still working properly. If something would change (although I hope it will stay the way it should 😀), I'll keep you updated.

Hey moonspa,

Ive downloaded the reason essentials tool and when trying to launch Torq2 im still getting the unable to launch rewire subsystems message. Do i need to download reason also?

any advice?

really stuck

Can you give me some pointers on getting torq going?

Ive downloaded reason 7.1 demo, the reason essentials 2.1.1...

Uninstalled torq....

What do i do with the essentials pack? when i open the .bin files they just make a cpgz file underneath?

Ive been trying this for days!

Ok, so i downloaded essentials and got that working, reinstalled torq, still no luck....
