Hi. Just installed Big Sur on my Intel chip iMac, and DP's "configure audio system" doesn't see my Thunderbolt 8pre ES anymore, nor does the audio portion in System Preferences. Downloaded & installed what I think are the latest drivers from the MOTU site, but still no go.
Suggestions?
Thanks!

Re: need new driver
Din you install v2.0.88529 | June 8, 2021 from https://motu.com/download ?
Did you check this within 30 minutes of installing the drivers?

Some are reporting that a regular reboot doesn't always work but shut down, then boot does. I've experienced that with some drivers and plugins but I'm not on Big Sur.

Re: need new driver
Found the missing piece...
It's due to a security feature in the OS:
"Due to the updated security architecture introduced since macOS 10.13 High Sierra, the system extensions for all newly-installed third-party software will automatically be blocked from running. If your MOTU interface is not showing up in Audio MIDI Setup, MOTU Audio Setup, MOTU Discovery, or your DAW on macOS 11 Big Sur, you might need to enable the driver in your System Preferences.
To enable the MOTU drivers, follow these steps:
Download and install the very latest installer for your MOTU interface.
After restarting, open System Preferences.
Select Security & Privacy.
In the General section, click the Allow button."
