RedPitaya + SoapySDR + CubicSDR

I was doing some digging to figure out how to get SDR software running on the Mac (Catalina in this case) and I believe CubicSDR is the only app supporting the Mac and RedPitaya.

CubicSDR indicates that SoapySDR is used for Red Pitaya support.

Now ... I also can't find a good tutorial on CubicSDR. I have fumbled a bit with the settings where SoapySDR and RedPitaya can be specified as an SDR source... but have not go it to work, only crash the app.

I've also not found a tutorial for this. I presume I need to run the Red Pitaya SDR transceiver app (btw, I'm just doing receive at the moment) and then somehow connect to it with SoapySDR from CubicSDR.

Does anyone have pointers on how to set up CubicSDR + Soapy + Red Pitaya?
Or maybe a tutorial / how to?

thx

Looks like Gqrx also supports Mac OS X and Red Pitaya:
