Whenever a new operating system is released, it is crucial to check the compatibility of your hardware and software before choosing to make the jump. This article will be updated periodically to reflect the current status of Akai Pro hardware and software compatibility with macOS High Sierra 10.13 and iOS11.
Hi everyone, While the new driver resolves a long list of issues in order to provide compatibility with Sierra, there are still noted problems with particular mac models and USB crackling/distortion/artifacts that cannot be resolved with a driver update from Akai. While the new driver resolves a long list of issues in order to provide compatibility with Sierra, there are still noted problems with particular mac models and USB crackling/distortion/artifacts that cannot be resolved with a driver update from Akai. If you have EIE, audio drivers in your Mac or PC will automatically install. If you have an EIE Pro, install the drivers for the device from the included installation disk, or from a download link on the product's page online. I review the Akai EIE Pro, a 24 bit/96khz USB 2 audio interface with 4 in/out XLR and TRS combo jacks, 4 audio inserts, Midi in/out, VU meters, and a.usb hub? Also, driver problems, Mac OS. The Akai EIE PRO (Electromusic Interface Expander) I/O is a tabletop USB audio interface perfectly tailored for your project and portable studio setups. This four-in, four-out (4x4) device enables you on Mac and PC-based systems to record at 24-bit audio resolution at sample rates of 44.1kHz, 48kHz, and 96kHz into virtually any DAW, recording.
