Default Re: S6 with M1 mini

Not recommended. If you are running current version of Pro Tools and WSControl on Monterey you should be on at least EUCON (WS) 2021.10.

What exactly does "S6 is still with the 2019 configuration" mean? If it means you have 2019 software on the Master Touch Module of the S6 - it's not going to work. WSControl and MTM Software need to be perfectly matched.

Let us know.


Jeff

Yes 2019 software on the mtm of the S6. Do i just need to install
S4S6MasterModuleInstall_2022_4_0_78.exe
Or is there more upgrades needed like firmware. This S6 is older than 2019.
Thank you for your help and patience, i'm familiar with the S3 but new to the S6

Yes, install the matching 2022.4 S4S6MasterModule software onto the Master Module and ensure that your license / console support is up to date so that you can be running that version.

best,

Jeff

The S6 and the QS control software have to be the same version. If they are not, the S6 will not function.

All good, quite a few steps in term of authorization and updating the different modules, deleting the old workstation, but it's running now.
Thanks for the help and suggestions.

I spoke too soon :) The S6 is ok but Protools is not. I can't see the HDX card in the Sonnet Echo 3

Default Re: S6 with M1 mini

Is this Sonnet or Avid branded?

Have you taken a look at this?

https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/ar...-Compatibility

Also,

Sonnet Echo Express III-D/R Thunderbolt 3 Edition is not supported, unless using Sonnet Thunderbolt 2 Upgrade Card. Or possibly the Apple thunderbolt adapter (untested)

I remember reading somewhere that there’s an issue connecting directly to the M1 mac but when connected through a thunderbolt hub, it works. I can’t find that info now so don’t hold me to it.

Here’s a thread that might help you.
