macOS
The ADI-2 Remote uses Metal for its graphics, therefore won't work below macOS 10.11. With
10.11 it depends on the hardware as not all Macs running that OS are Metal compatible. See
here:

No driver is required.
Connection
Under the hood the ADI-2 Remote uses a USB MIDI port to communicate with the hardware
device. The connection is the same as usual – via USB 2.0 to a Windows computer, a Mac com-
puter, or an iPad.
When everything is connected and up to date, but the app's title still says Disconnected: check
that the MIDI Control option is set to ON (menu Device Mode for ADI-2 Pro and ADI-2/4 Pro,
Remap Keys/Diag for ADI-2 DAC).

3. Software Installation

There is not much to say – the apps come with installer, started by a double-click on the unzipped
archive.
4. After Installation: First Step – Perform a Backup!
This part is important as you don't want to change or lose your current settings on the
device. Simply follow these instructions!
Install the app, connect the ADI-2 DAC, start the app. Stop there.
Now there is a fundamental rule on how the app works: it will only read out the ADI-2's current
state and NOT CHANGE ANYTHING on the device – unless you fiddle with the knobs or settings
– don't yet!
Next go to the File menu, select File - Save Setup as.... This stores the current state (Setup)
including all 20 PEQ Presets of the ADI-2 into a Setup file (*.adistp) that can be loaded later. Now
you are safe and covered! Whatever you change using the ADI-2 Remote app can be undone
easily by loading this setup file from the same menu, File - Open Setup file.
Additional steps
If you have saved several Setups in the unit you can store all these into separate files as described
above, after loading the respective Setup:
In the app go to the Device page, click Load, then click Setup 1. This is the same as loading Setup
1 from the unit's display menu. Now save the current state as file. Repeat the process with all
user-defined Setups.
There currently is no 'global state including all Setups' save functionality, so saving the Setups
has to be done sequentially for all user-stored Setups, one by one.
Now start using the ADI-2 Remote - Have fun!
