MOTU 2408 MKII and macOS 11 (Big Sur)

Post by JamesWarrior »

I need help to know how I can continue using my MOTU mkII with macOS 11 (Big Sur) and beyond, since I have been informed from the MOTU page that my audio interface is not compatible. Thank you.

If it's not compatible, you presumably can't. If they haven't updated the drivers/software to work on later systems, you're probably out of luck.

Have you searched around the net to see if anyone has found a way to do this successfully?

Other than buying a new interface, you might need to stick on an earlier version of macOS to continue to use that hardware...

I had a Motu 8X8 MK11, I gave it away, I'm running Big Sur on one machine, and High Sierra on another, the Motu wouldn’t work, I can't change my OS because tons of other things won't work, so it wasn’t worth it.
This is where RME seem to score, even though I wouldn’t buy one, they do have good longevity, support.

Yeah, it looks like 10.14 was the latest OSX version they supported in the driver.
