Today is a "Tiger compatible day" ! So Edirol announces new drivers supporting Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger for eleven current and legacy devices. This includes the complete complement of Edirol's current USB audio and audio+MIDI devices, as well as some legacy devices. In addition, a number of Edirol Audio Devices are supported natively in Mac OS X so therefore require no driver update with Tiger, namely FA-101, FA-66, UA-1X, UA-1D and UA-3D.

New drivers support 64-bit audio files and device aggregation.
