MacOS can only install DaqMX Base, right?
So a Mac can't output the Digital Waveform format, right?
So the only way to send a repeating T-F waveform from a Mac is to do it in a nice sluggish loop, one write at a time, right?
Or install LV on a Parallels VM running Windows. Maybe.
Right? There's no way to do this native on a Mac, right?

As of my last update in January 2022, NI-DAQmx Base is indeed the only version of NI-DAQmx software available for macOS. However, it's important to note that NI-DAQmx Base has limited functionality compared to the full version of NI-DAQmx available for Windows.
Regarding your specific questions:
Digital Waveform Output:
Looping and Waveform Generation:
Using a Virtual Machine (VM):
Native Support on macOS:
It's recommended to consult with National Instruments support or check their official documentation for the most up-to-date information on NI-DAQmx Base capabilities on macOS and any workarounds or alternatives for waveform generation and other tasks.
