Hackintosh Apollo Twin Usb

[yanniscadena]

Hello Guys and congrats for your wonderful forum, just wanted to know if my apollo twin usb (normally for pc, but i am on my pc using hackintosh) could work in my hackintosh actually on osx sierra ? Are kexts existing for this ?

Thanks for your replies .

I don't think that USB will work with OSX period because they haven't written any drivers for it (if it doesn't work on a "real" mac then it won't work on a hackintosh). The USB version of the interface was meant for Windows exclusively. However, I'd like to bump this because I've been searching through the forums for a hackintosh compatible motherboard that has thunderbolt on it so that I can use either version of the Apollo interface with a hackintosh, and so far I haven't found anything.

I just pulled the trigger to purchase a music production system (using Pro Tools 12.6, and UAD PCIe cards) and wanted to have the expandability of Thunderbolt 3 built in so I could eventually move to the UAD Apollo Twin MkII. The MB I selected was the GIGABYTE AORUS GA-Z270X-Gaming 7 Gaming Motherboard LGA1151 Intel Z270 2-Way SLI ATX DDR4 Motherboard. I chose this because of the built-in Thunderbolt 3 and USB 3.1 gen 2 port.

Good luck!

Apollo has full Mac support and as far as I know there is no reason why it should not work.

It looks like the Apollo USB has only support in Windows
And also the Console 2 does not work in the USB version...
here are a few discussions about it ..

....And that's really too bad because I'm certain that writing the Thunderbolt driver, especially the Thunderbolt 3 driver for the Arrow, was much more involved. It's absurd that

If UAD creates an Ethernet card (Dante/Audinate) to replace the Thunderbolt 2 card in the Apollo 8, I'll buy it. I wouldn't buy another TB interface or any interface that doesn't support power on/power off –and proven on my machine.
