bubinga5 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) Ive just updated my MacPro to Sierra. I have a Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 running into it, but its not recognising the interface.? I can play and hear the bass, but audio/signal from YouTube isn't running through the interface. Im thinking I need to update the Saffire software.? Any ideas.? Edited September 25, 2017 by bubinga5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I guess so yes, make sure that model is supported by Sierra. It should as Focusrite are usually bang on with updates. My interface, albeit a different model, has been working well. The only other thing I can think of is to reinstall and then make sure that Focusrite Control is configured correctly.

roman_sub Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I take it you've checked Audio / Midi setup on the mac, to check software outputs are correctly routed to the interface and not the built in speakers? Failing that driver reinstall should hopefully do the trick (I don't use focusrite so can't give more specific advice unfortunately).

davebass66 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Get in touch with Sibob. He works at focusrite and helped me out when I had the same issue a couple years ago with a software update. Unfortunately I can't remember what it was he told me to do!

JamesBass Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I can confirm that the interface should work with sierra as I have it and I have sierra and I recorded some stuff just last night! Check audio preferences and make sure that the Safire is routed properly. Alongside that try opening the Safire mix control and seeing if that helps. The college I'm the Technician at has a Safire 56 and it only seems to work with the mix control open too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) Ok thanks guys. Yeah the Mac is only recognising built in speakers. Mix Control won't open either. So I presume it needs a software update. Edited September 26, 2017 by bubinga5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 You can load drivers which are not OS compliant by unclicking the padlock thing in Security and Privacy in the System Preferences doobrie and allowing Apps downloaded from anywhere. That is how my Ozonic keyboard/interface lives to fight another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
