Numark has been actively testing all applicable hardware and software products with each beta release of macOS 11 Big Sur. We understand how important it is for all our users to know exactly what works before they make the jump on any new updates. Please refer to this article for all Numark hardware and software compatibility with macOS 11 Big Sur.

For this reason, we encourage all our dedicated Numark hardware and software owners to refrain from updating to macOS 11 Big Sur until compatibility with the new operating system can be confirmed. 

This page will be updated regularly to reflect any updates to product compatibility as testing is completed. We encourage all our users to remain on their current OS until all necessary hardware and software products have been qualified for support.

Support for Apple M1 Silicon Processors

Apple has announced the use of a new style of processor called the M1 that is to be included in their newer computer models. This is a gigantic step for computing power but rewrites a lot of the requirements previously used when developing new software and drivers.

For this reason, all Numark software and hardware will require additional testing, separate from Big Sur qualification. At this time, all Numark hardware and software should be considered not supported for use with these new M1 processors. Please look for additional announcements to be released here for M1 compatibility once testing is completed.

macOS Big Sur Hardware Support

The products below are class-compliant and do not require any drivers or updates for use with macOS Big Sur.

*Editors, utilities, and firmware updater software for this product have not been qualified for support on macOS Big Sur. This page will be updated as necessary to reflect the current support status on macOS Big Sur.

Please be aware: If you do not see your product listed in this article, it is not officially supported for use with macOS Big Sur. Compatibility testing is only necessary for products with USB connectivity and therefore does not affect any Numark speakers or headphones.

macOS Big Sur Software Support

Many of our products are dependent on software for all functionality and control while the device is connected to a computer. Our products may be considered "supported" for an operating system, but will not be functional until software support is also available. So, It is crucial that you weigh software compatibility before choosing to update your system.

Please check with the developers for your preferred software titles for the latest in Big Sur compatibility before choosing to update. We've listed a few key titles below for your convenience.
