I don't get it either. For Pro Tools sleep should be turned off according to Avid, and Cubase turns sleep of by itself, just the screen will sleep.
Hot swapping an interface is just weird. Like switching a hardware analog mixer on half way in the recording session.

On the other hand, I will sometimes walk away or get distracted for a while, and if sleep would work properly even with a DAW running, this would lower the electricity bill somewhat.

Cubase/ULN-8/PSI-17m's with a serious project loaded: 270W. My desk with Hack sleeping: 19W.

Because I run my machine 24/7 (sans system sleep) for running off-site backups, etc., I don't run a DAW 24/7. I don't want to leave the Apollo 8 on 24/7. Just like I wouldn't leave a mic-pre, monitors, or a Marshall JCM-800 powered on 24/7. When I want to use the interface again, the goal is that I can switch it back on and get back to work without restarting the machine every time –Just like a Windows 10 PC or a real Mac.

I am still having crazy slowdowns with Final Cut pro and it is causing me to want to abandon this project. My rig works great with Pro Tools. Final Cut is so buggy. PLEASE someone help.

the most recent video I edited for my youtube channel was a simple 1 camera angle tour of my recording studio. I shoot with a Sony A6400. 4k Video. Simple color correction, and very basic sharpening is all the was applied to the footage. I am unable to simply push spacebar and have the video just play, I still get regular spinning beach balls. And almost every time I Hit the spacebar, the play head jumps to the very end of the video timeline. Its a significant slow down. My bruce x test was about 12 seconds.

I have a 9700k, Designare z390, 32gb gskill DDR4, Sapphire Pulse RX580 8gb. Thanks in advance.

I don't think it's a configuration problem, but rather a slow hard drive.
I have no problem with 4k video.
What kind of hard drive do you have?

unfortunately a hackintosh has its limits.
For your needs, perhaps better to buy a real Mac ...

just out of curiosity, I work in a television network, and I use a Yamaha dm1000 that has been running for 10 years

CaseySJ, I'm not getting any readouts for the GPU nor the fans, just CPU and Core Temps in HWMonitorSMC2 (or anything else) What am I missing?

Do you have VirtualSMC.kext with both (a) SMCProcessor.kext and (b) SMCSuperIO.kext?

Hey there, I've been running this hack since Aug of '19 and it was without WiFi/Bluetooth. I just installed the Fenvi T919, and the install went fine. I'm running it in the first 1x slot and as far as. I can tell the macOS is seeing the card just fine.

There is, however, an issue where WiFi seems to be power cycling. In the Network control panel it will go active and inactive every 20 seconds or so. So, I can't connect reliably to a WiFi router. I've done a bunch of searching and I'm including all the details I can find. Has anyone come across this issue?

That is certainly odd. I think it's the first such report in this thread. Some things that immediately come to mind:
  • Post screenshot of System Information --> WiFi. Blank out any personal info.
  • Are you running Mojave or Catalina?
  • Have you tried moving Fenvi to the bottom PCIe x1 slot?
  • Was the card purchased from the same country in which it's being used?

On a side note can you (or anyone) recommend a microphone that would plug into the front of a Focusrite 2i2 (2nd Gen)? Three conditions/considerations:
  • It's for voice/narration in an indoor setting.
  • It's for internal training videos, not elaborate productions.
  • Preferably under $150.

I don't want to cause thread drift but Elias64Fr encouraged me to post the results, for research purposes (!) with my NUC8i3BEH. thanks to dgsga for modding and posting the NUC8 thunderbolt firmware (post 16,584) and of course to Osy for the original NUC TB firmware work. and to Elias64Fr (via PM) for his help in determining which of the ROM chips on the NUC was the TB chip and his encouragement along the way.

I flashed the NUC firmware with my RPi2B, and because there is a component very close to the Winbond chip I had to sand down one edge of the clip to provide clearance for it to attach.

I used CaseySJ's Alpine Ridge DROM SSDT and changed the UID and recalculated the CRC8.

result: I only have a TB1 seagate HD dock to test, but it works properly, including hot plug. there is only a single TB port on the NUC so I had to eject the HD and remove the dock cable to test USB2 and USB3 via a USB-C to USB-A dongle. both usb2 and 3 work properly including ejecting and reattaching.

so, another success thanks to those above and all the others here who have helped develop and test the firmware and SSDT's.

I'll also note that I have achieved similar results as above with a flashed GC-Alpine Ridge installed in my Z390 Aorus Pro.

Do you think this could work for my NUC8i7BEH ?? Do I need a RPi2B to do this trick??

I want to have a properly working thunderbolt 3 and I am so lost.

Thanks
