The following example is for setting up

the StudioDock in MAC OS X .
The StudioDock does not require any

special drivers or software. Just plug in

the StudioDock into a USB port on your

computer and everything is installed

automatically.
1. Make the connection between the

StudioDock's rear panel USB connector

and any available USB port on your

MAC using the supplied USB cable.

The MAC will recognize the USB audio

device and automatically install a

universal driver.

2. To select the StudioDock as the

computer's audio output, open the

System Preferences from the dock or

the main Apple Menu (figure 1).

3. Next open the Sound preference (figure

2).

4. Next, click in the Output tab and select

StudioDock. You may notice that the

Volume slider sets itself to the full level.

This will allow you to have full range

using StudioDock's hardware Volume

control (figure 3).

At this point you can begin using your

StudioDock's with most any audio

recording and playback software, but you

need to select it as an output device within

the DAW. When selecting the output just

look for and select the StudioDock.
