It should work on Windows (XP or later), Mac OS X, Linux and FreeBSD/OpenBSD. Binaries are available for Windows (32 and 64-bit) and OS X (64-bit only). Mostly TyrQuake's purpose is to satisfy my low-levl programming itch, improve my skills and to basically keep the codebase working on modern systems.

  • Cydia Impactor is a GUI tool that can install on Windows, Mac or Linux computers. The users can install IPA files on Apple iOS devices and also APK files on Android devices using this tool. You have to download IPA files on your computer that needs to install on your iDevice and simply use this application to sideload them.
  • A string value representing the name of the Computer, usually a host name or IP/MAC address. It is mapped to the name field of Computer (cmdbcicomputer) Character (40) operatingsystem: A string value for the main operating system running on the computer.
  • I installed Windows 10 via Bootcamp on my iMac Pro (8 Core, 64 GB Ram, Vega 64) and tested a few games and applications. Some of them are running great (e.g. Quake Champions), but some run extremely bad. Examples: - Doom (2016) is a slideshow, even the menu renders with 5 fps.
  • A Match Three Platformer in the style of Magical Drop. I see what you mean. Hard to explain, but you 'walk' the grid from each direction- N S E & W and count how many.

When importing photos from an iPhone or other mobile device, a camera, or a card, the Import panel in Photos, iPhoto, Aperture, and Image Capture offers an option to delete the items after import (Import photos from a camera or phone using Photos on Mac - Apple Support). This is very convenient, because we do not have to find the items on the device and to delete them there manually.


Be very cautious, when using this option. It is risky to delete the photos directly at the first import to the computer, sight unseen, and before we made the first backup.

There have many photos been lost by 'Delete Items after import' - it is a disaster waiting to happen. Just browse this forum.

  • Sometimes Photos will crash, if it running out of storage or similar, and the photos will have been deleted from the card, but the photos Library may not yet have been updated on the disk. No way to recover the photos.
  • Or, sometimes there is a problem with the cable causing transmission errors, and the imported photos may be unreadable. But with 'Delete Items after import' you will not be able to repeat the import, if it went wrong and you suddenly see grey bars across your photos or other kinds of JPEG corruption.

Seeing the thumbnails of your photos in the Import window is no proof, that the photos downloaded correctly to your Mac. The thumbnails are embedded in the original photos and you cannot tell from the thumbnails that the original image files will be readable. You cannot see the original image files during the import - you would be deleting the only copies of your photos from the device or the card.

It is essential to wait with deleting the photos from the card, until you have seen the photos enlarged, after they have been imported to the Photos Library, and you are sure, that the originals can be read.

Wait, until you have made the first backup of the new import, and only then delete the photos from the card or the device. This good practice is not too much extra work, and you will not risk to lose precious photos.

A card can quickly be erased by reformatting it in the camera. And an easy way to delete photos from an iPhone, iPad, iPod is to connect the device to a USB port and then use Image Capture to delete the photos. Image Capture can delete from a device without importing.


The 'Delete After Import' option will not be available on an iOS device, if iCloud Photo Library has been enabled on the device. This makes sense, because the Mac would have to delete the photos from iCloud. With iCloud Photo Library active, the originals of the photos are stored in iCloud and only mirrored in the camera roll.

Change Log

v1.23 (2021.03.29)

  • [Imp] Nils‘ K1v is now available as a VST3 plugin. The VST3 version supports multi-channel output.
  • [Imp] Nils‘ K1v now comes with native support for Apples new ARM-based M1 SoC
  • [Fix] Dropped Midi events in rare cases were still an issue
  • [Fix] Fixed automation was not possible for some parameters because of parameter label conflict (reported for Max/MSP)

v1.19 (2021.01.28)

  • [Fix] Dropped midi events caused notes to be hanging or not played at all in some hosts
  • [Fix] Neither SysEx send nor receive worked in Mac AU version
  • [Fix] UI did not update if single parameter was changed via MIDI SysEx
  • [Fix] Pitch Bend changes were processed even if turned off in global settings

v1.18 (2020.10.28)

  • [Imp] Implemented program change mode „Section“ which switches the Single of a Multi Section while in Multi mode
  • [Imp] Added a context menu to the preset list to copy/paste presets and send a preset to a K1 via MIDI
  • [Imp] Added Bank Select MSB to fix not being able to select all PHm presets by Bank Select + Program Change
  • [Imp] Added ability to control Joystick via Midi control numbers General Purpose 1 and 2
  • [Imp] K1v MIDI documentation is now available: K1v MIDI Implementation

v1.17 (2020.10.20)

  • [Fix] Crash if auPlugin is destroyed before editor window that belongs to plugin (hello HostingAU)
  • [Fix] Crash in 64 bit plugin versions when restoring plugin state from DAW

v1.16 (2020.10.19)

  • [Fix] Keyboard shortcuts didn’t work in Mac AU and Mac & Linux VSTi versions.
  • [Fix] Wrong sysex response to „One Block Data Request“ if requested preset was a Multi.
  • [Fix] Selecting a Multi via MIDI program change was off by one.
  • [Fix] Possible crash if parameters are edited in UI and via MIDI at the same time.
  • [Fix] Do not leave System page when switching between Single and Multi while System page is opened.
  • [Accuracy] Improved MIDI sysex compatibility to make K1v work with old Atari ST K1 editors that use undocumented „features“.

  • [Imp] Implemented response to „All block data request“ sysex message.

v1.15 (2020.10.17)

  • [Fix] Some Multis caused a crash when being loaded because the sysex parameter „Output“ of a multi section has an invalid value. These invalid values are part of the K1 factory banks and confuse the K1 hardware, too and result in the output being „Left+Right“. K1v now sets them to L+R, too.

v1.14 (2020.10.16)

  • [Fix] Wrong number of presets (832 instead of 968) were reported to plugin hosts

    This change fixes the Single ‚KillDa Mix‘ and others, mostly Pianos.
  • [Imp] All 200 PHm presets are now part of the plugin, causing it to have 968 total built in presets.
  • [Imp] Single selection screen has been reworked, for easier navigation it now includes a dropdown to select the Bank and has more navigation buttons.
  • [Imp] Plugin Logo has been reworked to match the K1 hardware logo. Furthermore, the „KAWAI“ logo has been integrated as Kawai gave official permission for the plugin.
