You are correct, sir!

Security settings from my MacBook Pro…

And from my Mac Studio…

After updating to Sequoia 15.4.1 I can report no change from the behavior previously under Sequoia… that is, my Mac Studio does not detect my USB audio interface on startup.

The struggle continues...

Plugin Alliance Updates Decided to do the painstaking comparison using PlugInfo and then checking version numbers via my Account page on their website. Found a few things to update: bx_clipper: I had 1.0.1. It's now 1.1.0 bx_limiter True Peak: I had 1.2.1. It's now 1.3.0 bx_masterdesk: I had 1.7.1....

The Sequoia 15.4.1 update dropped today. My CoreAudio interfaces have not exhibited this behavior so I have no idea if this was afddressed. The Font Book.app bug I found is still there, however.

this is the hub I recommend since I've tested it back to USB 1.1 with USB 2 cables. https://www.amazon.com/Thunderbolt-Hub-OWCTB4HUB5P-W125947845-Aluminium/dp/B08NWL5V86/ref=sr_1_4?th=1 Thanks for the suggestions, Mike.

Thanks for the reply, Mike. To clarify, my audio interface is NOT plugged into a USB hub… it's plugged directly into one of the USB-A jacks on the back of my Mac Studio. Nor is this a "wake from sleep" issue (once my interface is working, it reappears from sleep just fine). Upon startup, m...

Hi folks........ Since upgrading to Sequoia, I've had persistent problems with my USB audio interface (in my case, an Apogee Quartet) not being recognized. After a note to Apogee, they responded by saying that there have been several instances of this going around on different USB interfaces: We've ...

Nice work. After I previewed the tune on my laptop, I had to go back and play it through my system (rather loud through my big Genelecs), Great sounding track.

OH...... you got me!

James, you may be more up to date than I am… but I was surprised to see a half dozen updates today when it seems like I updated just a couple weeks ago

NI Updates

I booted up Native Access this afternoon and found half a dozen updates (Kontakt 8, Massive X, etc.), so—if you own Komplete or any NI products—it might be worth checking.
