    The Kona 2 version 4.0 driver was available with the rest of the updated Kona drivers. Perhaps your browser needs to refresh or is holding an old page in cache?

    The URL for the Kona2 version 4.0 driver is:

    Again, remember that version 4.0 is specifically for Final Cut Studio 2.

    What about the IO Product line????

    The io SD drivers come from Apple and so it is up to them to release the drivers, not AJA.

    AJA hasn’t released easy setups yet for the Io and FCS2, but they will be available shortly. Apple provides the actual driver for the Io, so if you are lucky enough to have an Io and a copy of FCS2, you’ll have to hand generate easy setups or just wait for a bit.

    Updated our AJA LA, all is working fine with the current drivers! Bonus, with FCP 6 you can play HD footage trough the LA to view on SD monitors. Down convert down by FCP 6.
