Can't get ad_rewire working in Max 8.0.6

Ali Somay's icon

I also have this in the Max Console.

Hello everyone,

I run Max 8.0.6 from "/Applications/Max.app/Contents/MacOS/Max" to see the error logs when I try to start the "ad_rewire" driver.

I open the host application first, in this case "Ableton 10.0.1" then open Max, then choose the "ad_rewire" driver.
The window recognizes channel count.

Then when I try to turn on the audio, the app freezes for a time and turns off the audio.

At the same time in the logs,


2019-06-29 10:09:02.768 Max[4213:40617] ad_spin: timeout!
2019-06-29 10:09:10.270 Max[4213:40617] ad_spin: timeout!

appears.

Also,

The initial logs when I open max are,

2019-06-29 10:07:28.903 Max[4213:40617] packages: package name (Video and Graphics) is different from folder name (Video & Graphics)

looks ok to me. Some minor problems which are not connected to rewire I guess.

In short words one more can't get ReWire working thread starts :)
I would appreciate any help, thank you.

What I did :

Delete /Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software
Delete ~/Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software

Download the latest ReWire Bundle from
https://www.propellerheads.com/download/updates_rewire/

Install the driver.

Give read&write permissions to everyone in this folder and subfolders

/Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software
~/Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software

Open Ableton Live 10.0.1

Check ReWire Folders to see that it registers -- OK

Open Max 8.0.6

Open Audio Status

Choose ad_rewire as the driver.

Check Max Console and see messages:

Registered Max 8 ReWire Device
Please restart your ReWire mixer application.
----
*Here you can restart the ReWire host but nothing changes.
----

Check ~/Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software/ReWire/
and see "Max 8 Rewire Device" there.

Turn on audio.

Check Max Console and stdout

in stdout :

ad_spin: timeout!
ad_spin: timeout!
ad_spin: timeout!

in max console :

ad_rewire: error starting audio. Is ReWire mixer running?

Then try every combination of all of these to get it running with no success.
*Also tried with other hosts such as Logic X.

This is my situation.
