The tool stopped working suddendly. He keeps saying that I need a Adobe AIR version that don't exist. It is downloaded but it has the same error as before.
Found this while browsing for music tools to mess with here on itch, actually surprised that no one's mentioned the fact that the name is Irish Gaelic for 'Music Box' or 'Music Bin'
For everyone having issues with Mac; apparently Apple dropped support for 32 bit apps, which I am assuming this is.
I find it kind of irritating that Apple dropped support for that and gives users a generic error message saying to contact developers to update their apps.
You can workaround this by installing a virtual environment and running an older version of Mac. One guide I came across is here: https://machow2.com/run-32-bit-apps-mac/

This is one of the many reasons I prefer Windows. As long as you have the lastest Windows OS you might be able to run most Windows programs, even if they were made for a older OS.
Hey, peeps - do you wish to partake in a friendly competition between fellow Bosca Ceoil users? Look no further, I created the Bosca Ceoil Arena on Reddit, a small community that I barely started a few days ago. Check it out here: https://www.reddit.com/r/boscaceoilarena/
My M1 Big Sur (11.6) throws “The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of macOS. Contact the developer for more information.” Any updates?
I'd love to use this tool, but the Archlinux air package is gone, and thus I can not execute this. I have tried my best - Could you get rid of air maybe?
it's really useful and super user friendly but sometimes if you tab out of it you can't place anything and the only way to fix it is to stop everything and restart it
Great piece of software! perfect for beginners (such as my self).
I do have some ideas of what would make better though.
1# ability to import samples to use as instruments.
I feel like this would give music way more variety and make songs sound more interesting. Say, for example, i was trying to make to make some electronic sci-fi esc music, and i wasn't satisfied with the default instruments. I could create and name a new instrument, and select a sample, such as a short .wav file.
2# plugin support.
add support for community made plugins.
these are just my ideas for this once again great program.
Can You Please Update The Software For The Newest Mac Version? I Really Like The Software But The Latest Mac Updates Prevent The Software From Being Opened Cause It's Out-Dated And Needs To be Updated. Thank You!
I was able to download the newest Adobe AIR from here: Harman AIR Runtime (from Adobe's blog post regarding Harman taking over AIR development). Download the AIR runtime. Install from the .dmg file.
I then downloaded the Bosca Ceoil V2 Windows or Mac AIR script (boscaceoil_v2_windows_or_mac.air) linked above. I installed the script via AIR.
The first time I ran Bosca Ceoil the GUI looked crazy, lot's of horizontal black lines all over. Quitting and re-running the app got it working fine. Yay!

Mlk tem visão
very épico
Does anyone know how to glissando? (kind of slide between 2 notes)
kinda like pitch bending you mean?
It's very good, but something that could maybe be added is slides. (Sounds that slide from one note to another note)

While apreciate you replying, but I was wondering if you knew any way to run it using monterey?
Apple deprecated 32 bit app support with Catalina. If that is the reason this app is not working on Monterey, you would have to use Mojave or earlier.
This is one of the many reasons I prefer Windows. As long as you have the lastest Windows OS you might be able to run most Windows programs, even if they were made for a older OS.
the current version does not work with my mac, can you send me a updated version?
I'm sorry, this needs to be updated to work with mac OS Monterey
have just tried to download the mac version from the website and it seems the link isn't working.
Adobe AIR unfortunately is no longer available on Linux distros, but I'll try out the browser version!
Good luck running the web version since it ran on flash
try ruffle (flash emulator), or if you have a windows PC, try CleanFlash (on W10 and below), or CleanFlash+IE Hack (W11+). Video Tutorial
Wow, perfect for early 90s MS-DOS style music!
this is such an amazing tool
fantastic tool!
This is fantastic. Thank you so much for making this!

Has anybody found a way to get this to work without Adobe Air? I had it on my old PC and loved creating music with it.
Any chance someone has the AdobeAIRSDK.tbz2 archive for linux saved? Adobe have replaced the link with a blog post.
Go raibh maith agat
It's archived at that address on archive.org. So it runs but makes no sound now. Okay.
I can't save my project. I name it, I choose where I want to save it, and when I click on the "save" button, nothing happens. Help me !!!!!
Got it working with MacOS 11.2.3 (Big Sur)!

OMG, this works! I use macOS Catalina and I’ve been searching all over for a way to run it. This is the first one that worked! Thank you!
Worked for me too, thank you, friend!!!!
wonderful program!! i really enjoy using it because it's intuitive and the instruments are cool.. thank you so much
