Topic: Problem with Multiface Hammerfall DSP drivers on a new mac

Hi guys,

I am trying to install drivers for new mac os x 10.9.5 but it looks like it is impossible.
I installed all possible versions that might work for Multiface but it kept restarting after installation but nothing is working, my computer does not see anything. Some of the drivers crash all the time (mads221.sit madsp220.sit) although I downloaded them from different sources and I am not able to install them!

And I can‘t use the sound card at all, Help?

Anyone had same problem and found out how to solve this?

Is that a Hackintosh? Not supported.
Multiface with  PCI Express? This driver:

Re: Problem with Multiface Hammerfall DSP drivers on a new mac

it is new mac pro with mavericks 10.9.5

my card is Hammerfall DSP Multiface I use it with firewire cable on pc but I do some projects on mac and wanted to use it as well
I have thunderbolt-firewire cable but no drivers are detected.
This driver is crashing and its not possible to open it although I used 2 different programs-driver name: madsp221

Can I maybe run in under windows as I have software that enables to use windows on my mac?

what is the best solution?
please advice!

thanks

M

The Multiface is not a Firewire device, this will obviously not work.

No, you are not, please have a closer look. If the Multiface attaches to an RME PCIe card, you could use that in an external TB based PCIe enclosure. If it's PCI, it won't work again, sorry (no Intel Mac drivers for the PCI card).
