Good evening (hopefully, it is still evening when someone comes to save the day; as I am desperately wanting to record).

I just purchased a PreSonus StudioLive AR8c Digital/Analog mixer. Everything works fine. However, I am trying to record on Pro Tools & can't seem to locate the device under the Network MIDI tab. I have googled and googled my way to hell, having no luck. Everyone is either talking about a different model of this series OR they are referencing a separate issue.

My question is: "Do I need to purchase some sort of adapter to gain a connection because there are only two ports on this device and my laptop (MacBook Air 2016 or 2018 [unsure]) doesn't have an ethernet connection?"
