No input from Apollo 8 Thunderbolt to DP 11.23

Post by DonMarco1 »

I have a MacBook Pro running OS 14.1 (recently installed by Apple during a logic board swap). I can see and monitor mic inputs in my Apollo 8 Thunderbolt, but have no mic signals present in DP 11.23. There's actually a very faint signal, but I suspect it may be coming from the MacBook mic. I have microphone access enabled in Privacy & Security. All other DP settings seem to be correct, as I can monitor my sessions through the Apollo as normal.

Anyone else running the same or similar setup? Wondering if DP is working properly with OS 14. Everything was fine before the new OS was installed.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Hopefully someone using a UA interface can help. I'm running macOS 14.1.2 and not having any issues, but I'm using MOTU audio interfaces. You might try reinstalling any UA drivers.

OP did you ever get this resolved? I'm having a similar issue with no input coming from my Apollo into DP11.31 MBP 14.41

Everything works fine in Logic Pro.

I have a similar problem.

Mic pre out into Apollo, and level showing on Apollo input 3, and on channel 3 in UAD mixer. UAD assigned output to 3.

I can also hear the mic fine through UAD into stereo monitors.

But, DP does not see the input. The settings for UAD patching are out Thunder 3, and bundles have been set to accommodate this input, No luck however!

Any help greatly appreciated. Makes no sense to me!!

Enable the Mic (macOS) on installation?

The issue of granting permission (security, IIRC) gets a lot of folks. DP needs permission access the mic. The UA might also require it. It's been awhile for me, and I don't have a UA Interface.
