Mackie Onyx 820i Driver For Mac

  2. Mackie Onyx 820i Driver For Macbook

Mackie's Onyx Firewire mixer line has just gained a smaller sibling in the form of the 820i. However, the mixer itself is by no means the entire news here, as Mackie have taken the unprecedented step of writing their own software driver to allow their Onyx i-series range to work with Pro Tools M‑Powered software (which you must purchase separately). Onyx i-series driver support was abandoned years ago. Last update was in 2009-2010? Surprised that OP managed to use it on Yosemite (i've tried to use my 820i on Hackintosh and never succeed). Its decently build, bit noisy, works fine under Windows 10 (include all bellow versions). Can go low as 64ms in latency as DAW interface.
