Connecting to a Mac 10.13 (...SH-01a, but not limited to...)

Post by Crumb »

Hi,

I have a Sh-01a and I just tried controlling it with my MPK mini, via my Mac. However the Mac wouldn't see it. And by that I mean when I open the Sh-01a driver it says it can't find the device (nor does it show up in Audio Midi Setup. I went to the Roland download page and noticed that the driver specifies up to Mac OS 10.12 I'm running High Siera 10.13

Can anyone confirm if they are successfully using the driver on OS 10.13? I imagine this is the same on any Boutique device.

Thanks

I have no problems using the SH-01A with MacOS 10.13.3 and driver v.1.0.2

Roland make it very clear what you need on this page:

Thank you CB. It's strange but I was only getting a page that specified up to 10.12

The link you provided of course worked, though I had to restart a few times to get it working (even after allowing it in security preferences). Thanks for the help! Very much appreciated.

To any future readers of this thread, the link provided by CB above has the correct driver for 10.13 Once you install it you have to go to Security and Privacy preferences and under the General tab you have to allow that driver by pressing the Advanced button. ..and then maybe a few restarts.
