Interesting device... looks like the Mac OS 9 drivers are lost, though. Not here, not the Garden, not Archive.org...

There are no drivers needed, it is a Pre-amp strip, if you add the "Digital I/O option" it gets connected to the Optical of your audio interface or directly to a mac with optical.  I don't have that option, so I just use the analog out.

But if you have Mindprint Envoice mkII with USB-port and Mac without optical in..you might want drivers for it.

I have the original MK1 versions, no USB

OK. This thread has now officially gone so deep into the woods it should be a horror flick…

i just checked and i actually dont have it. which explains why i am not aware of this driver at all, it always seemed to be a windows-only thing.

if somebody could deploy the ASIO driver from propagamma one could put that machine on his wishlist and it might make a good 2 channel IO solution.

otoh, can you still buy the usb card for the mkII? is it more a common or more a rare add-on?

Not sure, but the DI-Mod for my unit is avail on eBay from Germany for about $200

[IIO]

so, as much as the rest of the unit? i was afraid it is in that price range, it is probably not a bad converter.

From SOS review:
"Suitable ASIO drivers for Windows (98, 2000 and XP) and Mac (OS 9 and OS X) are supplied on a CD-ROM, although as you would expect the company's web site carries the latest versions (current v2.23 for all formats)"

i meant the "generic", commercial propagamma, which i suspect would work with many decives.

It is not complete...it missing all PPC Macs (except iMac G5) that have it.

You are right..I made separate thread about that Mindprint USB-driver:

Ok , do you have a complete source for the info about TOS Linked Macs ?
Would be nice to have all of 'em in a list.

yeah, it is the old name of ploytec.

you can see a picture of the OS9 ASIO controlpanel in that SOS article about the mindprint, the only other source is their old website

http://web.archive.org/web/20050324014646/http://usb-audio.com/

the main interest for some of us might be the support for the griffin imic.

maybe we should ask them if we may republish the OS9 version free of charge?

Or would he/she sell source code of Mac OS 9 version?
It would be nice to continue his work for new devices, also.

i think "how to usb" should be part of the ASIO SDK, but we can ask for both. it is most likely a two men project so there should be no rights releated issues with it.
