advice on reverse engineering an existing standalone app (Akai MPK mini preset editor)
With the update to macOS Catalina I'm going to lose the use of the preset editor for my Akai MPK mini, which it turns out is a (about to become obsolete) standalone Max app, available here if you're interested: https://www.akaipro.com/mpk-mini
I've accessed the package contents and opened the .mxf file at its root with Max, however all the dependent files are not found. Ultimately I'd like to either a) do a new build of the app, or the probably easier b) make a version as a Max project. Am I doing something wrong? Does anyone else have experience of reverse engineering an existing app made with Max?
