[quote author=”Leif”]I wish I had time. My to-do stack is currently so high I can’t even see the top through the cloud cover. Adding more is the last thing on my mind.
If I knew a good mac programmer whom I could trust and who would have time to do the project, that could work — but I currently don’t.

So, if we can help you find a good Mac programmer whom you could trust, and who would commit to the project, would that help?It seems like it should be possible (although I am not a programmer). I mean, we know that VolumeLogic still works in Lion and with the latest iTunes beta. All that needs to happen is for an installer app to copy all the files into the right places, and for the VL GUI window be openable by an iTunes user (the functionality lost in Lion).
Of course, I’m only talking about getting VolumeLogic to work/be in a sellable state again. I have no idea what it would take to port Breakaway over to the Mac…

Anyone a Mac programmer or knows one?[/quote]
Yes, THAT is the real question– can we find a Mac programmer that Leif can trust, who can take on this project? It seems like it shouldn’t be that hard– we know that VolumeLogic still works in Lion, with the latest version of iTunes (I’m running 10.5 beta4 or 6 or whatever the latest one is). All that’d need to happen is for the installer app to place the files in the right places, and for that prefs file to be modified. Well, that is, besides somehow enabling users to show/hide the VL GUI window from within iTunes (the functionality lost in Lion).[quote author=”mad_Angel”]
Volume Logic Is not BROKEN! its still working at the background (if u choose iTunes32bit mode) . just stupid iTunes Is not allowing us to see its window, Here is the solution,
In user library, in preferences find "com.octiv.VolumeLogic.plist" open it with text edit
and change this value<key>WindowOpen</key>
<false/>TO
<key>WindowOpen</key>
<true/>Start iTunes In 32bit mode, u gonna see VLs window. but if u have a habit like me to close this window you have to change this value many times in a hour 😛P[/quote]
mad_Angel, you are DA MAN!!! Works like a charm! Now I *LOVE* Mac OSX Lion!
Just for the record, I’d installed the Bongiovi DPSplugin iTunes plugin (http://www.dpsplugin.com/) when I learned VL wasn’t working, then upgraded to the new iTunes 10.5 beta60 to see if that would help. It didn’t. In fact, the Bongiovi plugin disappears in b60. But using mad_Angel’s preference hack works to make the Bongiovi plugin window appear so its settings can be worked, too.
Thanks to both godzfire and JesseG for the followup. I’ve just composed and sent an email to Keith Edwards, here:

Hello Mr. Edwards,
I would like to express my interest in a version of Breakaway for the Mac. I have been a longtime user/appreciator of VolumeLogic, even thru having to manually complete rather complex workarounds to get it to work with iTunes for the last four years. There is no other audio enhancer that comes *close* to the beautiful magic VolumeLogic does for my iTunes music.
I would love to help out in any way possible, from purchasing a Mac version, to testing out alpha or beta builds, to promoting on my various online and realworld networks. I really believe in VolumeLogic, and from what I am seeing/reading/hearing about Breakaway, I am sure I will be immediately sold on it as well.
Thank you for your time,
OK, I’ve been using VolumeLogic, too, for seven years, and after upgrading to Lion and iTunes 10.4, it no longer is recognized by iTunes… I am so bummed. There is– and has never been a computer audio enhancer that equals VL…
<begging>
So, I’m here joining the chorus of voices calling for a Mac version of Breakaway! Please Claesson Edwards! I will purchase your software, I will promote your software on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace, Google Plus, my blogs, to my friends, family, and fellow humans– I will help beta-test a Mac version, … whatever it takes! Please help us Mac music lovers!
