I buyed new IMAC, and its shipped with leopard..........
Right now, M-Audio not peovide any drivers for LEOPARD.

Really amazing how some companys work really slow.
Leopard its distributed to developers around one year ago, and ofical released day 30 oct !! and M-Audion no provide drivers yet?

Any person buy new apple machine, cant use sound cards from M-Audio.......right now !! amazing !

.......now i have to sell the fast track pro and buy another card? or i need buy TIGER? or need download form warez site.......


Its really amazing M-Audio !! really !!

Indeed.
M-Audio is laughable.

This problem, actually, isn't new. It's just that people forget that it's been repetitive for them until they do it again.

They're VERY slow at releasing drivers for new operating systems, and even then throw caveats into the ones the release.
Most recently:
Vista 32 drivers finally started coming out (in any substantial way) 9 months after Vista release
Vista 64 drivers aren't even really on the map
Leopard (well, here's what they say: http://www.m-audio.com/news/en_us-1045.html), but they said similar about Vista, and months and months and months and months passed

Here's my favorite line from that page:
"M-Audio has a history of quickly bringing the benefits of significant new advancements in computer technology to the pro audio community"

No, no... you really didn't just say that.

Ah well.
Sell it and get something else (but don't get EMU, they're VERY similar in this regard).

I'm sure someone will step in and point out a experiences with M-Audio and EMU that are good, and I once thought that too. It's cool. But I'm done with both of those companies.

IMHO - You'd be better off searching for companies that have a history of maintaining a social contract with their customers regarding hardware support. What M-Audio and EMU fail to understand is that they're selling you hardware sure, but also the use of that hardware on new operating systems, at least for the lifetime in which that same hardware is still being sold by them.

Good luck,

well mate. think about it as a salvation!!! get rid of M_AUDIO stuff could be not but a good thing, really, just a good thing...
Es la misma mierda de siempre con m-audio y sus drivers del carajo...
perdoná, es que me jode por que yo estoy esperando para comprarme un macbook pro y ademas de esperar che se arregle esta historia de santa rosa y leopard, tendré que esperar el driver de m-audio, o comprarme otra...
Good luck mate, aguante!

o instalr windows jajaj !

The rats that pilfer from my garbage can are already Leopard compatible. So WTF up with M-Audio??? Let's get it awn beotcheres.

I cant loose time with this.
I order right now AUDIO 8 DJ
Some guys confirm work correcty with LEOPARD, i not like NATIVE INSTRUMENTS i havelot of troubles with AK1.......but well.....anoter chance for NI with AUDIO 8 DJ

my m-audio firewire audiophile drivers still aren't fully compatible with tiger, i can't imagine how long it will take for leopard. fuck m-audio

what about motu? ultra lite is affordable, nice and seems good quality for the price... it sounds good by the way...

http://www.motu.com/newsitems/motu-leop ... patibility

or RME, but the price goes up... and haven't heard about leopard compatibility yet...

Motu ultralite in my country US$ 948.00
NI audio 8 Dj just 640U$

I loathe m-audio!

Because they are too lame to build class-compliant drivers, my Oxygen-8 is in the closet--unusable with Leopard. Lame asses!

never again will i spend a dime on m-audio hardware.

digidesign has been this way forever...


...now they're going to keep m-audio on the same track..

Firewire 410 works fine. No problem here.
Axiom 49 seems normal as well.
