MOX with Macbook M1 (Apple Silicon) - Midi OK, Not recognizing Audio interface

[antoniocarnelos]

Hi all,
I've always used my MOX8 with Windows and I've never had problems to the Driver recognize the audio and/or midi interface.
I just bought a MacBook with an M1 chip (Apple Silicon) and it's on macOS Monterey 12.4.
I installed the latest version available from the Yamaha website: Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver V3.1.1 for Mac macOS 11/12(Intel/Apple silicon with Rosetta 2).
When trying to use it with the keyboard, the MacBook is recognizing the midi interface, but it does not recognize the audio interface, that means, I am able to control VST, exchange midi signals, but neither the operating system nor the DAW is recognizing the audio interface.

OBS: I already tested using the original keyboard cable + USB HUB, as well as I bought a new USB-B to USB-C cable, connecting directly to the Macbook and the result was the same. There was no difference.

The Yamaha/Steinberg driver thing has always been tricky - at least, on Windows . . . . .

I'd LIKE to suggest it's just an installation problem.

The Driver is VERY FUSSY about the order things are done - when to connect, when to switch on - and so on . . .

Any deviation seem to (annoyingly) allow a "partial" installation, like you are seeing . . . .

Completely remove the driver, and try again, following the instructions to the letter . . . .

<Saul> would be best to comment - I've not used Macs since Snow Leopard

Hi,
Thank you so much. I unistalled and installed again and didnt work.

This link solved my issue: https://helpcenter.steinberg.de/hc/en-u ... stallation

I needed to change the security via recovery mode.

To be expected I guess, due to the "New Silicon" . . . .

At least they posted details . . .

Thanks for the link

Glad you are sorted now . . .
