This is the reply i got from novation...my new interface won't be one of theirs! 😮

Thank you for your email.

The Nio isn't supported on OSX Mavericks and as the product was discontinued several years ago, it's unlikely the driver will be updated to make this work.

If you wish to continue using Mavericks, you will need a new interface I'm afraid.

Kind regards,

I know, and it's not like its really that old a piece of kit!

I only got it 3 years ago!

And now it and apple are not compatible!

Makes me a little angry when i think of those smug apple adverts...'everything just works' ..

Yeh right!

haha

As for novation, i've spent alot of quid with them over the years...

Not any more!

It must be possible to create drivers, someone somewhere has to!

I can't beleive Novation won't update thier drivers, i always thought of them as reliable. I certainly won't be going anywhere near any more novation products if they don't update drivers after only a few years!

Seeing as it "kind of works" when you fiddle with itunes or the sample rate surely it wouldn't be very hard to tweak the drivers to work with Mavericks. Bet it's something really small and simple too.
