Wineskin provides free Windows emulation support to run S & S applications on a MAC.
What is Wineskin?
Wineskin is a tool used to make ports of Windows software to Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (or later). The ports are in the form of normal Mac application bundle wrappers. It works like a wrapper around the Windows software, and you can share just the wrappers if you choose (that is the strategy used here). Best of all, it’s free and does not require installation of the Windows OS!
If you are satisfied with this installation process, please consider making a donation to Wineskin in support of the excellent work they do in creating the Wine wrapper engine. A brief video tutorial explaining how to use Wineskin to create a Windows wrapper is provided at the bottom of this webpage. Current Version is v2.6.2.

For example, if you are installing SewWhat-Pro, the zipped wrapper file will be named Wineskin-SewWhat-Pro.app.zip. Unzip it and run it to install the product. You may be prompted that “SewWhat-Pro (or whatever application you are installing) is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?” Select “Open” to continue with the installation. You may have to change your security settings to allow the file to run, as explained here. The Wineskin programs will have a wine colored icon next to the file name after they are installed (see figure below).
Once the installation is successfully completed and you open the application, the S & S product application registration box will open. You may now choose to continue using the product as a Demo or enter your registration information if you purchased a license.

I've felt frustrated not being able to run the Mac version of KeyKit on a modern Mac (okay, it's from 2008), but I've been pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to install and run the Windows version using Wineskin.Wineskin is a free, open-source application that lets you port Windows applications to OS X without requiring you to own a copy of Windows. I'm using a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.11.6 (El Capitan) and I downloaded the Windows installer version of key73d.
Wineskin For Mac
These are the steps that I took (hopefully I remembered them all):- With the Wineskin Winery application, I created a blank 'wrapper' (an application package where KeyKit would be installed) which I named 'KeyKit.' This was automatically created in the Applications > Wineskin directory under my user directory, but I just moved it to the main Applications directory.
- Double clicking on KeyKit then opened the Wineskin application hidden inside the package. From the small Wineskin window that opened up I selected Advanced, then the Options tab, then checked 'Emulate three button mouse...' which turned out to be necessary in order to be able to use the trackpad's right mouse button equivalent inside of KeyKit.
- From there I clicked on Install Software then selected the key73d.exe file I had downloaded. This ran the windows installer for KeyKit and created the whole directory structure inside of the application package. There was one error message that came up during the installation which didn't seem to cause any problems.
- Once that was completed, clicking on KeyKit now opens KeyKit within an X11 window (a special version -- WineskinX11 -- that is built in).
Wineskin For Mac Os Sur
Through Wineskin, audio input & output is routed through Core Audio and MIDI input & output is routed through Core MIDI. The Port Enabler tool shows the currently available Mac MIDI devices and I've been able to send output either to built-in GM synth or to the IAC driver's Bus 1. (Actually, the output devices includes a MIDI_MAPPER device as the default, which directs MIDI to the Apple DLS GM synth.)Opening the file browser within KeyKit shows a Windows-style directory. Opening My Computer shows you a C: drive, which is the Windows C: drive hidden inside of the application package, and a Z: drive, which is the Mac's root directory. Opening My Documents shows you the Mac Documents folder within your user directory.
From the Mac finder, you can access all of the KeyKit files such as the documentation and the library by right-clicking on KeyKit and selecting Show Package Contents. There's a alias for drive_C that leads to the virtual C: drive which includes the KeyKit7.3d folder. I created a keylocal.k at the root of that C: drive which includes the lines: inport('Bus 1') & outport('Bus 1'). This successfully makes KeyKit default to the IAC driver for MIDI input & output. While you're inside the package you could create an alias so you can more directly access the KeyKit folder the next time.
Wineskin Winery Mac Error
I just installed this last night, but so far, so good. I occasionally get weird errors in KeyKit, but probably fewer than I did when I was running the Mac version on an older Mac.
