Topic: Will early MADIface be recognized by MacBookPro with Thunderbolt conve

Will early MADIfaces be recognized by MacBookPro with Thunderbolt connectors?

MacBookPro with Firewire400 works with bus power, but can it work with current MacBookPro (USB-C)?

FireFace400 still works, but with Apple conversion connectors.
I can't use bus power with the Apple conversion connector, so I have to use the AC adapter.

However, the MADIface does not work with an AC adapter. Do I need an older MacBookPro to take advantage of the early MADIface?

The 'early' MADIface does not use FireWire, but a dedicated PCIe/ExpressCard interface on the computer side. No USB, no Thunderbolt.

The current MADIface USB (sic) runs from any USB port.
