Emagic A26 Emagic (EMI) driver The A2 6 driver provided with the device has not worked since Mac OS-X Lion (10.7). I have written a replacement driver which works from Lion to present (High Sierra). Please note, this driver is for the A26 device (2 inputs 6 outputs), not for the A62m. A driver for the A62m can be found.

(Alternatively: the three files can also be found, however you need to click each file in turn, then click the 'raw' button, and then save the raw page into a text file. Repeat for each file). Move the files into place Firstly place all three.HEX files ( loader.HEX, bitstream.HEX and firmware.HEX) into the A26 folder on your desktop. They should not be inside another folder.
