    Hey . . I hope I'm missing something obvious but I can't get the HI object to recognize the trackpad on my MacBook Pro M1 Max. The trackpad is huge and it would nice to check it out as a controller of some sort. I checked out FingerPinger but I don't think it is M1 compatible due to the dreaded "incorrect architecture" message. Curious if others have ideas or a workable solution. Thanks!

      You could give AudioSwift a try - they have a demo available. https://audioswiftapp.com

      Yes, thank you. I tried the audioswift but it caused all manner of problems like the mouse freezing every five seconds or so when in the finder.
