Using Audio MIDI setup in OS X Mavericks (10.9)
In OS X Mavericks (10.9), two options appear in the Audio
Devices list: “US-366 (Bit Accurate)” and “US-366 (Core Audio)”.
Only the “Core Audio” setting can be used as the input or output
device.
Do not use the “Bit Accurate” option.
NOTE
• When the “US-366 (Bit Accurate)” option can be selected in a
DAW or other software, using it should make recording and
playback more stable.
• The “US-366 (Bit Accurate)” option cannot be used with
applications downloaded from the Mac App Store. Use the
“US-366 (Core Audio)” option with such applications.
