HDX in new Mac Pro/Catalina
I have the new Mac Pro (2019) running Catalina. I installed my HDX card and have installed the latest Avid/PT software and HD Drivers (2019.12) still my HDX card is not being seen inside of Pro Tools Hardware Setup or I/O setup. I have not seen any threads on this.... Are the HDX cards supported in Catalina?? Can anyone please help

They aren't supported yet, but I've got mine working in a 16 core, 160GB RAM, 4TB model.
Which slot did you put yours in? Mine is in slot 5. How are you powering the card? |

Re: HDX in new Mac Pro/Catalina
The new Mac Pro isn't officially supported yet, but I have a single HDX card installed in slot 6 (two slots below the Apple IO card) and it's working fine. Pro Tools 2109.12 did a firmware update on the card during the first launch.
Did you get the Aux Power Cable Kit? You will need it. Specifically, it's the one labeled "Cable Set 3 - PCIe Aux Power Cable 6-pin to 6-pin".

Re: HDX in new Mac Pro/Catalina
Hi All,
I’m looking to pull the trigger on a new Mac Pro to run my HDX system. For those who have got it running, how’s stability been? Thanks, Ryan Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: HDX in new Mac Pro/Catalina
Look for a thread called "2019.12 Discussion" A few folks wrote in there about the new Mac Pro.

Re: HDX in new Mac Pro/Catalina
I'm running into the same situation as the original poster. I have installed as Avid Recommends here (slot 2):
Apple Mac Pro 7,1 Slot Order In the second slot. I am using the Belkin AUX Power Cable Kit for Mac Pro or one 8-pin to dual 6-pin cable and have the other end of the power cable in the Mac Pro in slot 1 (I've also tried slot two). I've installed the HD Driver multiple times, restarted multiple times and no luck. The HDX Driver just won't show up. I'm on a 16 core with 160 GB of memory. The mac shows that I have a card installed in Slot 2. It sounds like some of you may be having success in other slots. When I get a moment, I'll try those other slots and report back.

Re: HDX in new Mac Pro/Catalina
Well, interesting enough, I found that when I went into System Preferances - Security & Privacy and under the General Tab, it said it had denied Avid from installing because it was an unidentified developer. So after I told it to trust Avid, I installed it yet again, restarted my computer and it was there.
So if you are running into this problem, check Security & Privacy settings.
