The 15” MacBook pros only have the touch bar, however when using voiceover you can press the FN key to use the normal number keys as Function keys. Also VO+ the minus and plus keys will turn system volume up and down so you don’t have to mess with the touch bar to use those either. > On Nov

You would need. A double dongle solution to make it work you will need the firewire to thunderbolt adapter, and then connect the thunderbolt end to the thunderbolt 2 to thunderbolt 3 adapter. Think of the ports on the MacBook Pro as Thunderbolt 3 ports which also support USB-C. Since the USB-C

Hi, The Digital 003 uses Firewire ports and I have not managed to locate an adapter that ports Firewire to USB type C plugs. Do most USB interfaces work well with an USB type C adapter cable and do any of the 15 inch Mac laptops have the function keys or just the touch bars? I want to minimize

Personally I’d opt for the 15” pro over the 13” pro laptop. The 15” pros has the advantage of quad or 6 pro processors and discrete graphics. That being said, There are very few actual USB-C interfaces on the market most of the USB-C interfaces are really just USB 2 interfaces with a USB-C

Hi, I was holding off buying a new audio interface until I can get a new mac with the USB type C ports and am looking at the 13 inch with function keys and the highest ram and SSD storage. For my inputs I would like at least 4 if not more and I would like the jacks to be combo XLR and quarter

Hi John, I, too, was looking for looping suggestions. As far as I know there is not a looping plug-in that is accessibility. Instead, you have to approach it in a more manual way. Here are a steps below, thanks to Chi. Hope this helps. 1. Make sure Link Timeline and Edit Selection is checked
