This is probably a dumb question. Is there an ASIO driver available for the MOTU PCI-424 card under OS 10.8.5? Reason I ask:
I have downloaded the Mac OSX wrapper version of Image-Line's FL Studio 11, because a client requires that I use this program on his project. Of course, FLS is a Windows program, but they do have this Mac OSX wrapper version available. So, I bought the app for $99. Now, it seems low buffer settings cause horrible distortion in the audio output of FLS. Anything under 700 samples distorts, but at that setting there is still too much latency to enable live playing of FLS instruments.
Selecting PCI-424 or Primary Sound Driver will allow audio routing out of the PCI-424 card, but again, the above problem exists. Choosing CoreASIO produces no sound. So….
Is there a way to use an ASIO driver for my MOTU PCI-424 card using Mac OS 10.8.5? I have to assume not, that it's a Windows thing. Somebody, please tell me I'm wrong!!

Steinberg produces an ASIO driver for Macs, and I think there is a ASIO4ALL Mac version. I have no idea if these would work with current MOTU devices. It looks like they are directed at USB.
I did use the ASIO installation that came with Cubase SX with my MOTU 2048-2, but I think that was using OS 9.
