About

Motu M-Series is a macOS installer for drivers and software used with MOTU M-Series M2, M4, and M6 audio interfaces. This is the Mac installer, not the Windows package or the separate firmware updater.

  • The listed macOS release supports macOS 12, 13, 14, 15, and 26.
  • That release supports both Apple silicon and Intel-based Macs.
  • MOTU’s installation instructions say to double-click the installer to begin.

Install with Homebrew Cask:

brew install --cask motu-m-series
