M-Audio Fast Track USB - Macintosh Driver Installation

The included M-Audio Session software is for use with Windows computers only.  
However, the Fast Track USB hardware can be used on Macintosh computers with 
applications like GarageBand, Logic Pro, and Ableton Live. 

Fast Track USB functions as a class-compliant device. This means your Macintosh 
computer will recognize Fast Track without the need to install additional drivers. This 
gives immediate access to all audio inputs and outputs. However, if you wish to use 
your Fast Track USB with Pro-Tools M-Powered software, you need to download and 
install Fast Track USB OS X drivers from www.m-audio.com

Installing Fast Track USB drivers on your Macintosh computer:

NOTE

: Do not connect your Fast Track USB to your computer until the appropriate 

driver files have been copied to your hard drive. Be sure to leave your Fast Track 
disconnected until instructed to connect it below.

 

1.   Download the latest Macintosh driver for Fast Track USB from  

www.m-audio.com under the Support > Drivers page.

 

2.  Once the driver has finished downloading, double-click the file to run it.
