Topic: SOLVED - Can't get new UFX II to work with macbook pro
Howdy folks, I'm hoping someone here can help because I'm so close to tearing my hair out!
I just got a new UFX II, I know it works as I've been able to get it up and running with another macbook pro.
I just cannot get this thing working with my mid 2012 macbook pro. I've tried all the new and not so new drivers, installed & reinstalled many times, but alas, no ability to control or do anything to the UFX II.
I can open Fireface USB settings and see the correct serial number, but changing sample rates/anything changes nothing on the unit. Totalmix FX won't even open the mixer windows. The unit itself displays a sample rate of 32k, which is... odd?
Interestingly, I haven't been able to get the system to block/need me to authorize the RME install to run (I'm on Catalina)... I feel like this is surely part of it?
I've deleted protools as I saw that could possibly be a problem, but no fix. I've rebooted. I've power cycled. I've checked I'm not in Class compliant mode. I've deleted all RME files and tried to start again. Nothing works!
Please help!
