You can now download the last versions of the modularing soft for MAC on their website www.modularing.com (betatesters are needed). These downloads are light versions of the soft without presets, demos or samples. The MAC version won't save. There a few new elements to this soft but they are not implemented in the MAC version so far. Don't forget that it is a beta version that you can download and use to give feedback to its developer. You can find the MAC operation manual here : www.milprod.com.

PS (Clouvel) : Our friend albaron also looks for people that are ready to develop animations and presets for the soft, they would get free licences in return. He can also organise a public demo of the soft in Paris.
