Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB Recording Audio Interface SO they need to combine fixes for a number of different PC/Macs that have different hardware. I mean that list is incredibly long, and a lot of what needs addressing is very hardware specific. IF you think of it like this, the technical teams at these different corporations have a long list of problems that need addressing. This is a tough situation because all parties have whats called "Plausible Deniability", as Native Instruments states, "Our products are specific to USB 2.0- It says it right on the box", and PC/Mac hardware vendors state, "USB 3.0 is suppose to be backwards compatible- blah blah blah". If you need evidence I suggest you think again why we all seem so frustrated on this very particular issue. I'm sure it will not be overlooked, but from what I hear, trying to tackle USB compatibility hardware-programming issues is a beastly task. I do this for a living, I answer in 8 hours time on an average of 30 phone calls most of which deal with compatibility issues.

I hope NI is able to get those beta drivers up to NI quality soon!Ĭlick to expand.Love this point the finger game, and very hard to understand sometimes compatibility issues. This includes postponing the purchase of a new Mac if you plan to use it with one of the known-issue sound cards. I strongly advise Mac users to take caution with Mountain Lion until NI gets the drivers right. So tonight I'm preparing to roll back my system to 10.7.4 (thank you Time Machine) so as not to be embarrassed again this weekend. The sound quality was embarrassing to me. I played a gig tonight and all my levels were set as always, yet the clip lights on the amps were lighting up like never before. It also seemed like I could hear an underlying distortion in every song. It was like the mids & highs were being compressed while the lows were being boosted by some kind of cheap bass-booster effect. It "worked" in so far as music played instead of crackling - but the quality was horrible compared to under 10.7. But the issue was there: at first try there was a horrible crackling instead of music. I was hoping the issue might not be there since the 2011 MacBook Air does not have USB 3 ports. I decided this week to try it on Mountain Lion because I really want the new features of 10.8.

Here's my experience: I've used my S4 with my 2011 MacBook Air for almost a year now. NI is right to call these drivers "beta" - just like any beta software you should not use it unless you absolutely have to.

Looking into the system logs we see that the installer is crashing:Ĭlick to expand.I disagree the issue is not "resolved" - it's just a patch to make things basically functional. Force quitting is necessary to end the installer process. iso and launching the installer, the installer just hangs (keeps bouncing in dock but nothing happens). It is required to upgrade Komplete Elements to version 1.7 for Maschine integration.

#2) Unable to Install Komplete Elements 1.7 MK2 Update for Maschine - Komplete_Elements_Mk2_100.iso A temporary work around can be found here, which involves replacing the USB 3.0 Drivers with the older USB 2.0 Drivers from Mac OS 10.7.3.Īlso after installing the latest drivers from the service center, they still appear as not installed (which it's possible that they aren't I suppose in relation to the above USB 3.0 issue?) A comprehensive discussion of the issue can be found in this thread. The new USB 3.0 Drivers are causing all NI audio interfaces to fail (in my case Kontrol S4 and Audio 2).


Note: Default installation paths were used everywhere. This thread is to summarize the compatibility issues I am seeing and hopefully find resolutions. I just did a full reformat and installed a fresh version of Mac OS 10.8 Mountain Lion GM Preview.
