I purchased Dorico 5 Pro when I heard Finale was closing. I use an iMac running Mac OS 14.6.1. I used the Steinberg Download Assistant 1.35.0 Installer. After all was said and done and I tried to launch Dorico, it hung up and said this: “Dorico cannot connect to the audio engine. The application will now quit”. Now what?
I was told to start a new topic and someone from Dev would help me. I am attaching the Dorico Diagnostics.zip file here.

I’ve just had a look at the crash report and it appears that you have a very old version of HALion Sonic SE (version 2.0.3.94, which I think shipped with Cubase 8.5 in 2015) and that is crashing.
I suggest that you remove this (I think it is in /Library/Application Support/Steinberg) and install the current “HALion Sonic” (note: not “HALion”) from Steinberg Download Assistant.
