![]() ![]() you need) and budget are then folks here can suggest some good interface options. Start by looking through the interface section on Thomann Music or similar. There are great interface available from (in no particular order): Focusrite, Universal Audio, RME, Apogee, Presonus, etc. Avid finally woke up and exited the consumer interface market years ago, the best thing for them and customers in the long term. You can go back to what you were running on before or you can purchase a new interface. Lots of discussion on DUC about all this. And when an Apple Silicon version of Pro Tools is released there may (likely will?) be some transition pain, especially with third party plugins. If you are on Apple Silicon Macs you are at the leading/bleeding edge and you have to look at bit at what's going on there, for example for now you have to run Intel versions of any third party plugins for now and even then may have to upgrade any third party plugins to latest versions to be compatible now. at least one serious bugs that hit Apple Silicon systems in recent Pro Tools releases just got fixed in 2022.5. ![]() it runs really well under Rosetta 2 on Apple silicon based Macs-but you do need to pay extra attention. That is compatible with Monterey, even if it's an Intel binary today. But again all that is of no use to you as these are all old Intel only drivers and have never supported Apple silicon. If you were running an Intel Mac (which you are not), you could see what drivers are available/support older operating systems here for 3rd gen Mbox: or for the 3rd gen Mbox Pro here. Modern drivers may come as separate Intel or Apple silicon installs or may come as one installer package that will contain both Intel and Apple silicon driver components, you need to read the descriptions of that the vendors say. And if you are looking at any driver from any vendor for any hardware you need to make they explicitly say it's supported on Apple silicon (aka M1 etc.) Macs, not just say that it says "supports Monterey" or similar. Apple silicon Macs require any device drivers be compiled for Apple silicon (drivers cannot use Rosetta 2 for compatibility), and Avid has never done that. Not even caring enough about an end of life product to list it as end of life says a lot about the Mbox, and more about Avid).Īnd because you have an Apple Silicon mac Mbox interface compatibility is easy: not a single Mbox family product is compatible in any way with an Apple silicon Mac. ![]() Some genius can explain why they did that. (Avid recently removed the beyond end of support life Mbox products from the end of support life list. And so there are no new Mbox family drivers compatible with Monterey (on Intel or Apple silicon macs). It requires drivers supplied by Avid and Avid stopped providing updates to all the (beyond end of support life) Mbox a while ago. Multiple edits belowįor the interface: "Supported by”? To be clear the operating system knows nothing about any Mbox interface. Uh sorry I misread the version of Pro Tools you are running until I read Ben's reply. ![]()
