try the MacGurus site. ftp://ftp.macgurus.com/%2Fftp/ You'll find xlr8 drivers, control panels etc there. The Mach Speed Control 2.6.1 is probably the first to try (don't have an XLR8 card but I use the software with my sonnet just fine)I think XLR8 went out of business. Here's a serial #: XLR-LS28-JPDS-CFV2 good luck!
