KymaConnect 2.0.0 has been release. Please see KymaConnect 2 is now available.

KymaConnect 2 beta testing is currently paused but will resume. New betas are announce in the KymaConnect 2.0 BETA forum thread.

KymaConnect 2.0 is a major new version of KymaConnect. If you have used KymaConnect in the past you will find a number of new features. Improvements include:

- macOS 10.14 “Mojave", macOS 10.15 “Catalina", and macOS 16.0 “Big Sur” support.

- 64-bit operation.

- Native operation on Apple Silicon Macs.

- Four additional external MIDI device slots, bringing the total number to eight.

- Enhanced MIDI routing, including selectable routing between external MIDI devices on a device-by-device basis.

- Additional MIDI filtering options.

- A new virtual MIDI port, Haken2Kyma, for dedicated use with the Haken Audio's Haken Editor.

- Support for IPv6 direct-to-Pacarana connections, and IPv6 local networks. This will reduce initial connection time in some situations.

- Designed for Kyma 7+ or 7++, and can use the same Ethernet connection to the Paca(rana).

KymaConnect 2.0 is "Paca(rana)-only". KymaConnect 2.0 does not have any dedicated Capybara functions or capabilities. KymaConnect 2.0 is designed for the most recent versions of macOS; it requires macOS 10.14 (Mojave) or macOS 10.15 (Catalina).

The download is a ZIP file containing the macOS installer. The installer, and the KymaConnect application, have both been notarized by Apple, a requirement for installing on macOS Catalina.

We also recommend that you verify that the installer is authentic before using. See Q&A: How do I verify that the KymaConnect 2 installer is authentic? You can also download a PDF containing the same information from How to verify a KymaConnect installer

You must have a valid KymaConnect 1.0 license to use the KymaConnect 2.0 BETA. If you already have KymaConnect, version 1.0, installed on your Mac KymaConnect 2.0 BETA will recognize that license; you should not need to re-enter your license. If you are installing on a Mac that does not have KymaConnect version 1.0 installed then you will need the license key you received with your original KymaConnect order.

Note that BETA releases are time-limited. The deadline is shown at the top of the KymaConnect preference pane. The most recent BETA can be download from here.

This BETA replaces the original KymaConnect 1.0. If you wish to revert to using KymaConnect 1.0 you will have to reinstall it.

KymaConnect 2.0’s logging support has changed from KymaConnect 1. Do not change the logging level from “Minimal” unless instructed! The "Minimal" setting has low impact on KymaConnect 2.0 performance. Higher levels increase processor load and may introduce latency.

Bug reports, technical support questions, comments about KymaConnect 2, and suggestions should be posted to the Kyma 7 Community Tips & Techniques forum, topic "KymaConnect 2 BETA Support"; do not contact Delora Software support with BETA-related issues.
