What will the Mac version be able to do? Will a USB drive work?

I just installed it and had a first look. Nice! :)

Anyone else having issues with the new version 2.4.1.0 of the HxC Floppy Emulator software for MacOS Sierra? When attempting to convert an Amiga .ADF file to the .HFE format, using the batch converter process. The HxC Floppy Emulator software crashes.

Any resolution greatly appreciated :-)

Thanks

I'm on Mac OS X El Capitan, using v.2.1.6.0 and I'm getting this message, when trying to access the USB settings:

»FTDI Driver D2XX Not Installed!«

What to do?

(I have a USB Gotek Drive and I'm trying to use it with a Yamaha SY99 synthesizer)

Thanks!

This is for another hardware. You must use the SD settings window.
