[. . . ] (This is not dangerous if the system is unplugged!) Remove the cover from your computer chassis and select an empty PCI slot in your computer. You should refer to your computer system documentation for any special instructions on installing expansion cards and peripheral equipment. 16 Unscrew and remove the slot cover for your selected PCI slot. Insert the Audiophile 192 PCI into the selected PCI slot and press it down so that the contacts are securely seated all the way into the slot. Secure the bracket of the Audiophile 192 PCI card to the computer chassis using a chassis screw or retaining bracket. Replace the computer chassis cover and reconnect the power cords. Connect the audio cables to the Audiophile 192 PCI. See the External Connections section for more information. Restart the computer. Go to "System Preferences" in the Apple Menu. Select the "Sound" preference panel, and click the "Output" tab. Select " Audiophile 192 " to choose the Audiophile 192 as your default output device. Connecting the Audiophile 192 The Audiophile 192 offers following connections: < Main Inputs 1 and 2 ­ These are balanced/unbalanced 1/4" TRS input connectors, located on the breakout cable. Any incoming signals can be assigned via the software mixer panel and your DAW application. Connect your line level sources to these inputs. While somewhat different in appearance, the Mac control panel is functionally equivalent. Any differences in actual function are detailed in the following sections. Monitor Mixer Page The Monitor Mixer page has fader controls for the input sources feeding the Audiophile 192's software Monitor Mixer. The output of the Monitor Mixer appears at the analog Monitor Outputs. The inputs derive their audio streams from the Audiophile 192's analog and digital inputs, as well as audio streams from your DAW application. Each input source has its own individual Mute and Solo boxes, and the channels can be linked by checking the "Stereo Link" box. The faders are attenuation-only devices ­ they can only reduce the signal level from it's maximum. Note that the Main Outputs' overall output level is affected by the S/W RET 1/2 (WavOut 1/2) level faders. WavOut 1/2* These faders control the level of the main audio stream output assigned from your DAW in the monitor mixer, and the overall output of the Analog Hardware Outs 1 and 2. *Note: on the Mac, this is labeled SW Out 1/2. WavOut S/PDIF* These faders control the level of the audio stream output from your DAW, as assigned to the S/PDIF Digital Outputs in the monitor mixer. (The output assignment is selected within your DAW software. ) These faders have no effect on the S/PDIF output level. *Note: on the Mac this is labeled SW Out S/PDIF. 18 H/W in S/PDIF These faders control the mixer level of the audio stream output connected directly to the S/PDIF digital Inputs, providing for zero-latency hardware monitoring. [. . . ] MultiTrack Driver Devices As with all M-Audio Delta series audio devices, the Audiophile 192 is capable of synchronizing with multiple Delta cards when running DAW software that supports simultaneous multiple channels. Selecting "Single (In-Sync)" forces all audio channels to begin recording or playback at the same time. Selecting "Independent" will allow all channels to record or play back independently. This may be desirable if more than one application needs to address the Audiophile 192 simultaneously. [. . . ]
