I updated to Yosemite on my Mac before checking whether the FP10 would even be supported (not smart I realize). However, I had been running Maverick and using my FP10 without any issues, so my assumption had been that the minor update to Yosemite would not cause a problem. I think I am wrong, however since I can no longer connect to my iMac....

Per the Presonus site, it appears that the FP10 isn't even technically supported for Maverick. I am assuming then, that unless I want to re-install my old OS, I need a new interface. So..if what I have typed so far is correct, I have two questions:

1) What would be a suitable replacement for the FP10 in terms of price & features? I was pretty happy with it up until this point...

2) Is it worth holding on to for any reason or is there even a market for it anymore now that the drivers are no longer supported?

Thanks!

Is it worth holding on to? That depends on your needs. If there is nothing wrong the unit, you might consider getting a cheap used laptop and build a mobile rig...if you have such a need. The FP10 works perfectly fine with nearly ALL OS's EXCEPT Yosemite. And for EXACTLY that reason there is, of course, a VERY strong used market for these units....they sell on eBay all the time. What do you want for it? Maybe I'll buy it!! :lol:

Thanks for the reply!

Firestudio looks like the logical replacement at this point. If I decide to dump my FP10, I'll give you first dibs if you want it! :D

Hi Cristofe,

If you are still interested, I think I am going to sell my FP10. Shoot me a message if you want it...I'll probably go ebay with it if not.

Thanks!
