Why Yamaha / Steinberg doesn’t announce these updates is beyond me. Was getting some pops on my system, running a URC interface, and this seems to have cleared that up.

Thanks for posting, @Why !

Does anyone know what _“Added supported models”_ (the description listed as the “_Main revision and enhancement_” between V2.1.8 and this new V2.1.9) specifically means?

@alexis It seems that the new interface models are not branded as Steinberg anymore. They are listed only on the Yamaha page: [Interfaces - Synthesizers & Music Production Tools - Products - Yamaha USA](https://usa.yamaha.com/products/music_production/interfaces/index.html)

[This post](https://forums.steinberg.net/t/thank-you-for-your-continued-support/1010922) explains the move.

Also looks to be available version 4 driver on the Yamaha page for the URC interface.

This driver update added compatibility for some new Yamaha devices only but didn’t include any relevant fixes. This is why it was released silently. If it did fix some issues for you, @Why, this must have been an unexpected side effect 😉
