Another thank you to Mike Halloran and others for guidance on reviving legacy MOTU gear. I found this thread an hour ago - downloaded the MOTU driver recommended by Mike and installed it into my 2019 16" Intel MBPro running Montery 12.6.2. I ran the installer as is - no issues and no warnings, ...

Interesting (and great) that it worked. I'm wondering if you are using 10.13 (or later)? If you are, your Mac must not have an SSD drive as it's startup drive? Apple will reformat all SSD drives to the new APFS file format - but not spinner drives - when updating to High Sierra and beyond. So, when ...

Any suggestions how I can go back to normal and scratch on my hard drive? Thanks! Neal Gittleman I use a 64GB Sandisk 3.0 thumb drive - leave it in my MBP 24/7. It sticks out about ⅜" - similar to a wireless mouse USB receiver. Does your MBP have an SSD drive? If so - when upgrading to High Si...

No, it is not. The current MacBook Pro and iMacs do carry TB3 through the USB C port. Other Macs with USB C, including the MacBook Air, do not (Apple just says TB—probably TB1). You are correct. Thanks for the clarification. I think I was trying to show that, in the Macs I use anyway, there didn't ...

That is the reason that many 32 bit apps cannot work over APFS including DP 7—it installs and sees the CD but cannot write the Authorization file it needs to see to finish booting. I found similar activity in other apps while testing High Sierra. That issue could be caused by one of two scenarios.....

There have been other reports that it can work if the OS is upgraded but it's been many Mac OS versions since it can be installed. Interesting... I've seen those reports also - and can only offer that PEAK 7 installed OK for me on a fresh iMac Pro. I used the original "BIAS PeakStudioTrial.dmg...

I know this is an old thread, but I'm adding an update - PEAK 7 does work on 10.13.6 with one very important exception. It can't write cache files to the APFS formatted drive... so... before you attempt any DSP processes or bounce any plugins - you MUST designate a Scratch Disc that is HFS (not APFS...

USB-C is Thunderbolt three. What I mean is: Apple has this nasty habit of implementing new port designs and assigning multiple protocols to the same port almost every time they release a refreshed hardware design - making the ports auto sensing/switching based on what gets plugged in to the port - s...

Success - I unpacked a brand new iMac Pro (picked it up today) and the first thing I did was try to get the 828 original to work. I can report that my 828 (original) does indeed work with High Sierra and the new iMac Pro. Here are the cable and adapters that worked for me: 1. Apple brand Thunderbol...

No - that's not my setup. I'm currently using a Mac Pro - not a MacBook. My Mac Pro has a firewire card - works fine with the original 828 and High Sierra. I am afraid of it not working using the cables, dongles, etc... when I upgrade to a machine that doesn't have built in or PCI firewire ports. I'...

Hi - I also have an "original" 828 Firewire interface - worked great through my upgrade to 10.13.X. I'm using a MacPro (mid 2010). No issues with seeing the 828. I'm using driver version 1.6 73220, which I downloaded from the MOTU legacy area. The driver was installed and working prior to ...
