The AudioBox USB is a class compliant core audio device. No driver installation is necessary under OSX 10.4 or above. Simply plug in your AudioBox USB to a free USB port on your Mac and record. May 13, 2016 As there is no device driver for the AudioBox USB provided by PreSonus, the AudioBox USB relies on the Apple OS X class device driver for connection. The issue appears to have been a problem with the OS itself and was fixed with the release Mac OS X 10.11.4. Sep 11, 2012 I just got my new AudioBox, was very pleased that there are now absolutely no interferences on my monitor speakers (I had this problem with my MOTU Ultralite). But I have a very new mac mini, which only has USB 3 slots and OS X Mountain Lion. AudioBox 1818 VSL Supported Operating Systems Mac OS X 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion) Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) Supported iOS App(s) AB1818VSL Remote More information on this release that supports OS X Yosemite can be found in our knowledgebase at. Jan 11, 2015 It came with a software by PreSonus ('Studio One 2 Artist Music creation and Production System') which due to the Mac not having a disk drive, and due to my research online, it is not necessary to use that software, and I can just plug the AudioBox into my computer, select the audio output, and get started with Garage Band/Logic Pro X.
