Hi there,

I've got an issue when I try to launch the software.
I did a complet install with the last version (include cmake #103).
Install is ok (MacBook Air with Big Sur 11.1)
But, when the command: did -I pa:3 -o pa:1 -fa, here is the result (with dad -a before):

"

    Assuming you installed portaudio via homebrew, this is the solution:

    brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies portaudio
    
    brew install portaudio --HEAD
    

    This will fix this error on MacOS Big Sur
