Direct monitoring on mac?

Kewl - even with the Metric Halo, the real issue is will it respond to Nuendo? I’m not sure UA has that truly figured out with the Apollos either. When you hit record on a punch-in, will it flip the monitoring from playback to the zero latency input? AFAIK only Steinberg’s hardware will do this. This has been a major crippling issue with running SB on Mac for the entire time they’ve been on Mac. If they can do it with their own hardware it seems to me they could write a spec and make it available to other manufacturers. I’m pretty sure the rest of the industry would jump on a chance to get DM working on Mac.
