B612 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Hi guys. I hope all of you are doing well. I have been away for awhile, now... but here I am, with a new problem to submit to my Hackintosh family! I have a new sound card which is called M-Audio Delta 1010LT. It is very good (semi-professional) but it works only on Windows. The M-Audio staff was so mean. I contacted them way before buying this sound card, asking if it was compatible with MAC Intel computers and they said "YES!". After buying it, since the drivers for MAC are meant to work on a PPC computer, I wrote to the same people, asking for an explanation or a help and what they were able to say (the same man that 2 weeks earlier was saying it was compatible!) is that it cannot work on MAC Intel computers, because it's a PCI sound card. Is anybody able to give me a suggestion? Is there a solution to my problem, or I just have to throw away my sound card and buy a firewire one? Thank you very much everybody. Have a wonderful day! PS: of course I have a USB sound card which works on my Hackintosh, but it has not the same quality as the M-AUDIO!!

Wallstreet Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Return it and pick up a ProSonus FireBox. Works perfectly under OSX86, and I'd wager it sounds better than the M-Audio card.

psy4fun Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 (edited) Correct me if I'm wrong, but the problem isn't only the Intel port but the lack of PCI support in OSX86 (although System Profiler show us a "PCI Cards" section). Since we have the drivers for PPC MAC, I wonder if there is someone in this forum that is able to make them run on the Intel platform...

B612 Posted January 20, 2007 Author Share Posted January 20, 2007 Absolutely, that's the problem. But since my ears cannot wait I bought a USB sound card.

Keegan Quinn Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 It would be really nice to get this board working. There's an excellent ALSA (Linux) driver for it - it should be possible to port it, or at least use the source as a basis for a MacOS driver. I've no idea how much work that might be, though. I might take a look at it if I get a chance, but kernel programming isn't my forte.
