I've asked the same question today on his own website, on Korg PA MANAGER section and I am waiting for the answer.
Is all in FAQ section, you don't need request question which is already answer.
https://www.korgpamanager.com/faq/

KORG PA Manager | FAQ wrote:What Operating Systems does KORG PA Manager work with?

KORG PA Manager Runs directly under the Windows and Mac Platforms only.
Virtual Machines are NOT supported.

Nemik,

I know and read that.
But it's a long story with mac version and I had a long conversation with the developer through emails and his forum
during last year because the mac version did not work and he confirmed and agreed.
That's why now I am hoping that mac version works and I need his assistance.
Anyway that will cost me some $$ and I want to make sure all works correctly....

What upsets me is; I purchased this software on 9/16 as the website said it supported the Pa4x. I paid $80 us for software that didn't work with my keyboard. I waited 7 months for a supported version, no other incremental versions were released since 9/16. And now they want another $80 USD for the upgrade?

Give me a break.

I think you definitely deserve some customer support with that!!!

Hmmm... must admit that the pricing and expected costs associated with upgrades has put me off.
If it is as good as it looks then I am sure a lot of hard work has gone into it but the initial AUD$330 price tag (I would have to install it on my 2 machines) is putting me off plus its limitations and ongoing costs (double if I need 2 licences!!).

At least I can do everything it does in a different way but it does look like a very convenient tool.

Cheers

Pete

I prefer to base my opinion on what others say and write... and not what the owner writes on paper..

I read the FAQ..

And there is a difference between an owner writing that it is fully PA4x compatible and other users confirming this.

Same goes for MAC compatibillity, see BR's story, the version 2 FAQ said it was MAC compatible, and it wasn't.

So i will wait till others have tested this before spending my good money

Wow thats a lot of money!. I don't think i'll be going there. Anyway why can't Korg do this sort of thing?, seems to me to be something that's a required service to purchasers of a $6k AUD + Item

Well I dove straight in a bought a copy, after waiting so long I couldn't resist it. I'm not too sure I understand how to use all the features but it will help me to organize my styles in comfort.

I think the price would have been reasonable if the license allowed for two installations as I imagine a lot of users would wish to be able to use it on another machine, my self included. The developer states in FAO that a second license can be bought for half price but on the purchasing page it works out to more than half price (eg single license is £125 but for two machines it is £200).

I think it is very unreasonable not to be able to use the software on a second machine as most other software allows this even if it means allowing to switch to another machine but there is also a restriction on this as you can only do it once without a charge.

My first impressions however are quite positive, the interface is slick and appears to function with no problems but as I said before I am no expert and have a lot to learn about the PA4X and this software.

Yep Rob and how long have we been asking for some editing tools?
Just a basic editor/organiser would be great - I think there might be 1000 posts in our forums saying the same thing!!!

But!!! I'm staying positive and what keeps me going right now is the fantastic results I am getting in my band recordings - just mostly factory styles and sounds - the PA4X is such a great upgrade for me.

Cheers

Version 3, but unfortunately still no integrated SongBook editor.
Would be awesome if that was part of the package.

BTW I agree with others in this thread: it's software Korg should provide for free for instruments in this price range.
