I have an old MAudio Profire 610 which has done me well, but MAudio aren't providing drivers for it on anything after macOS El Capitan, so I'm left with a dilemma, do I stick on an old OS, and buy the necessary converter cables to make it work on my MBP, or do I bite the bullet and buy a new USB2 one?
I wasn't happy with firewire really. The lack of hot plugging and the drivers seemed to get confused if I put the computer to sleep rather than restarting.
So is USB any better with the sleep issue? I'll be using it with a laptop and will need to unplug it all the time when I'm not at my computer desk, but I don't want to have to restart the computer when I do it.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a good, cheap(ish) USB audio interface that will work on modern Macbook Pros? The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 seemed perfect, but they say you need to 2i4 to have it working well with guitars but that's getting more than I really want to spend.
