I recently updated to Sonoma to test MPC3.5. The Renaissance and Touch aren't recognized at all in MPC3.5, but do work well in MPC2.0. The Touch audio, midi, and touch screen display all work. The Renaissance only works as a controller with midi I/O, but isn't recognized in audio settings.

This isn't just a 3.5 thing, it's also a Sonoma thing, the Ren driver has not been updated for the latest macOS (and likely will not be). Would be great if Akai open sourced these legacy drivers. But either way, I suspect MPC 3.5 was not coded to support long discontinued devices.
