Not just music creator apps, but people who use Photoshop and Lightroom Classic also reported compatibility issues. Customers using older / legacy versions of Lightroom Classic or Photoshop shouldn’t upgrade to the last version of macOS Catalina. Adobe has confirmed that they are not supported in any way for use on macOS Catalina.
If you use any of the Mac Machine that has received the Catalina update, wait for a few weeks before updating. In the meantime, app developers have already started working on fixes.
