NOTE: The Prism Sound Mac software has been digitally signed, which means it should install without additional intervention
on most Macs. Under OS X 10.7.5 and onwards, if your Mac’s Gatekeeper policy (Apple menu > System Preferences… >
Security & Privacy > General tab under the header "Allow applications downloaded from:" ) has been set to “Mac App Store”,
you will need to temporarily change it to “Mac App Store and Identified Developers”. For further information on Gatekeeper,
