Motu 828 MK3 Hybrid on Yosemite 10.10.3

Post by kwtsh »

Hi

Its seems Apple are forcing people to upgrade to Yosemite to fix some security issues that will not be fixed on 10.8.5 or 10.9.

Before I make the leap can anyone comment on the stability or otherwise on 10.10.3 64bit with:

Motu 828 MK3 Hybrid, connected via Firewire
Cuemix FX

Thanks.

I'm using it now with the latest FW driver on a 1st gen Traveler.

That's unrelated. Here's the vulnerability that apple wont fix on anything but Yosemite:

Thanks - although you're on a different OS and a different interface, so not sure how much that helps?

You are wrong on the OS and my 828mkII is FW. We use the same drivers.

If that doesn't help...

Uhhh... that's because it is not an issue with anything before Yosemite.

Thanks Mike, and it's stable? How about Cue Mix crashes? I was just going off your signature which said 10.10.2. I see you've changed that now. I guess you've had a couple of days of testing now?

Unfortunately there's a bunch of incompatibility reasons why I can't update to 10.10.3 immediately, specifically Live with Max and Liquid Rytm won't work.

Hi people.
I don't know for sure that this is related to Yosemite 10.10.3 but since the latest update, both my MOTU MIDI Express 128 (2 of them) and my MOTU 828 MK3 Hybrid (connected via Firewire) are not working well anymore.
The most annoying thing is that the 828 is disconnecting (I notice it because MOTU Audio Setup suddenly doesn't show the 828 anymore - then after maybe 10 seconds it gets back).
Also, when the above happens, CueMix FX will not respond anymore, or better: it will respond, but communication to the 828 hardware won't work (volume changes, mute or unmuting on the software will not reflect on the hardware).

Anybody aware of this or experiencing the same problems?

Regards,
Flavio.

Not sure if this is related, but since upgrading from Lion to Yosemite, Cuemix is not working. It opens but I can't see any window, and the Devices menu won't open any options, as it did before. Tried shortcuts for opening the window, tried uninstalling/reinstalling, and can't get the window open. Can't find anything online with the same issue, just wondering if its happened to anyone here.

Hi. If this can be of any help, I run an Ultralite MK3 on 10.10.3 *via USB* and Cuemix works without problems.

My 828-3 works fine with 10.10. using FW. It works better than it did with previous OS versions. I used to sometimes lose channel names and some other MOTU Audio Setup settings. No longer. The audio setup also works if I power up the 828 either before or after the Mac.
