Apple has now released the latest version of Mac OS X Operating System, Version 10.7 (aka Lion). This article will provide the latest compatibility information with M-Audio devices and Mac OS X 10.7. Please check for a compatible driver before installing operating system updates. Before new device drivers are released, they are tested for use with operating system versions that are available at that time. When updates for an operating system are released, all M-Audio device drivers have to be re-tested and possibly updated to ensure proper operation. We recommend not installing operating system updates until a driver has been posted for that specific operating system.
Note: Pro Tools MP9 is not qualified for use with 10.7 at this timeBefore installing operating system updates, it is important to perform a complete system back, such as with Apple’s Time Machine. It is also important to disconnect your M-Audio device before installing any Operating System update.
