A friend I play with using BIAB is taking the plunge this year and buying the latest-greatest audiophile version. He's mostly a Mac guy but from the forum here I see it's possible to run the PC version on a MAC. Any discussions as to which way might be the best way he should go?

We've had people here report they run it with Bootcamp or Parallels. I don't know enough to say which is better. I do remember reading that Peter Gannon develops the Windows version of BIAB on his Mac using one of these, so it must work well.
BIAB 2025 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 7 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6, Song Master Pro, Win 11 Home. Hardware: Intel i9, 32 Gb; Roland Integra-7, Presonus 192 & Faderport 8, Royer 121, Adam Sub8 & Neumann 120 monitors.

Peter Gannon develops the Windows version of BIAB on his Mac using one of these Seems odd to develop on a platform other than the target.

Peter Gannon develops the Windows version of BIAB on his Mac using one of these Seems odd to develop on a platform other than the target. I use Parallels on a MacBook Pro for both BIAB as well as professional software development (MS Visual Studio) Aside from the the Mac Keyboard you'd hardly know you are running a mac. BIAB Win runs just like it does on a Win PC. I don't see any real difference. Visual Studio also runs like a champ. It can be a real resource pig. I run SQL Server and/or Oracle DB engines at the same time. Sometimes some other machine learning libraries which can be pretty taxing on system. Its pretty rock solid for me. Admittedly I do have a pretty kick-[*****] MacBook Pro.

Hi John, I'm not sure about this but as I sit here thinking about your comment I find myself wondering that maybe because Peter eventually targets both Windows and Mac operating systems with BIAB, working on a Mac also opens the possibility of parallel development.
