![]() After months of dealing with Apples driver support team, they eventually told us we are on our own. With that being said, our VAD for Mac was somewhat (but not completely) broken in Mavericks. This bypasses all of the complex DRM controls the record companies and movie studio have put into place with the cooperation of Apple and Microsoft. Technically, a VAD can steal music or other audio in perfect fidelity. Well, I think the answer lies in Digital Rights Management (DRM). This may seem strange on the outside because our Windows driver is based on a Microsoft-supplied example virtual audio driver for XP and Apple users have relied on Soundflower for years. Regarding Virtual Audio Drivers: Basically, Microsoft and Apple have personally told us, in no uncertain terms, they do not like virtual audio drivers (VAD) and they will not officially support them. Not only does this save us a lot of work, it will give us a chance to understand Yosemite better in parallel to the Windows beta program. ![]() When we are all happy with the changes then we will port to Mac. ![]() The Windows version will be available first.

We are about a week away from getting a version out to the forum for testing. And I extend many thanks to Bongiovi team members Dan Rice and Joe Beaty and all of the forum members like Jim Boden who contribute their own free time to helping DPS users. Let’s just say I’ve racked up a ton of frequent flyer miles. I wish I could fill you guys in more but there is a lot of confidentiality to consider. A LOT of really cool things have been going on for DPS, especially in the hardware consumer electronics area. First, I’d like to apologize to the forum as a whole for not showing my face here more often this year.
