You can connect the Media Module to a Windows
PC or Macintosh USB input to allow you to use
the PRE32/I32 as a digital audio output device.
On a PC, Windows XP/SP2 or later is
required. On a Macintosh, OSX 10.4 or later is
recommended.
•
Connect the computer’s USB port to the USB
B input on the Media Module using a USB A
to USB B cable.
The first time that the Media Module is plugged
in to the PC or Macintosh it will automatically
be recognised, and appropriate drivers will be
installed.
The Media Module will then appear as a sound
output device called XMOS USB Audio 2.0 in
the Sound control panel (PC) or Sound system
preferences panel (Macintosh).
• Turn the SELECTOR until the USB source is
selected:
USB
Note: For best results set the computer volume
control to its maximum value, and use the PRE32/
I32 volume control to adjust the playback volume.
