S4 MK2 won't work with M1 and Monterey, or in standalone with power supply. Why?

DJ_Dave

NI indicates that the S4 MK2 is compatible with M1 and Monterey, yet it doesn't connect or even stay lit up, even though I am using USB and a power supply. I took it over to my friends house who is running Windows 10 on his PC and as soon as he plugged it in to worked flawlessly with TRAKTOR PRO... I am feeling little left out here. What do I need to do to resolve this issue? Also, why can't I use it in standalone with my turntables?

S4 MK2 is driverless. i would suspect a hardware issue (and more specifically a cable issue as it works with a pc).

I can only say that the S4 MK2 never had standalone capability.

For compatibility, have you checked this page? : https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/360014900358-Compatibility-of-Native-Instruments-Products-on-macOS

I did, and Monterey on an M1 MacBook Air lists as totally compatible.

@DJ_Dave did you get it to work? I had the same problem, but think I worked on it in 2023 sometime but didn’t have time to pursue it.
