How to connect the Traktor Kontrol X1 in the MacBook Pro M3 with Sonoma?

Which X1? The new x1 mk3? or mk2 or the first version?

As your MacBook only has USB-C-Ports you will need either an USB-C-to-USB-B-Cable or an USB-C-to-USB-A-Adapter and the cable which came with your Kontrol X1. X1 Mk. 2 and the new X1 Mk. 3 should work without any additional drivers. The first version isn't supported by NI on Apple Silicon Macs as you need macOS 10.14 Mojave (or older). But @Opa built an inofficial solution for the first X1. You'll find it in this thread:
