How to use this guide
I spend my days in a Cardiff studio and my evenings teaching music production — so I’m picky about what goes on a Mac. This catalogue started as a list I’d hand to students who needed a macOS torrent that wouldn’t waste an afternoon. It’s grown into 636 programs spread across seven categories, from VST Plugins like Serum and Kontakt to full suites such as Adobe Photoshop and Microsoft Office.
Every entry tells you what the software does and why it matters, so you can decide before you commit. The Audio section covers DAWs and processors — Logic Pro, Ableton Live, DaVinci Resolve Studio for post — while Video Downloaders handle 4K pulls from the usual platforms. The Games corner has enough to fill a rainy weekend, and the Mac Apps shelf catches utilities you didn’t know you were missing. If you teach, mix, edit or just tinker, there’s probably something here with your name on it.
