macOS Sequoia / Apple Chip compatibility with Traktor Kontrol S4 MK1

parisathens

Hi all,

I recently upgraded to last year's M3 Macbook Pro, and with it am dragging my Traktor S4 MK1. I was previously able to install the Kontrol Drivers 2.8.0 and 2.7.0 in a workaround on an older mac (newer relative to the S4 MK1), but these same drivers will not install on this computer — they fail with mac's "The installation has failed" prompt. Does anyone have a fix here?

While I reasonably could assume this is hopeless (the computer and controller being a decade+ apart), I assumed the same thing with my mid-2010's Macbook Pro running Catalina 10.15. Any help appreciated.

macOS Sequoia 15.0.1

Unfortunately there is no known way to get an S4 Mk1 working on Apple Silicon Macs.

This Mk1 controller requires drivers which are only available for older Intel Chips. These cannot work on Apple Silicon Macs.
