Download the installer for your computer from the official Crate Hackers page.

Choose the correct platform

  • Mac: the download page lists macOS 12 or later. Use Apple menu → About This Mac to check macOS and whether your Mac uses Apple silicon or Intel, then choose the matching installer.
  • Windows: use Windows 11 for the current supported setup. Do not treat a successful Windows 10 installation as confirmation of support.

An operating-system minimum is not a performance guarantee. Large libraries, external drives and other apps can affect scanning and responsiveness.

If the app will not install or open

  1. Record the exact error or warning.
  2. Confirm that the downloaded installer matches your computer.
  3. Check available storage and finish a normal installation before launching.
  4. If the problem continues, contact support with the details below before buying a new computer or making major system changes.

Keep security protections enabled. Avoid changing your operating system or installing an unfamiliar build immediately before a gig.
