USB Audio Interface
The MixPre-6M has an integrated 8-in, 4-out core audio-compatible interface for
use with a Mac or PC computer.
For PC users, the MixPre-6M will appear as a 2x2 audio interface unless a
specific ASIO
®
driver is installed. The latest ASIO driver, along with install
instructions, is available for free at
www.sounddevices.com/support/downloads
.
See the MixPre-6M’s Downloads page.
To work with the USB audio from a host computer, it is necessary to route the
USB 1 - 4 sources appropriately. Should you want to mix the USB audio from
the host computer with live audio from the MixPre-6M’s inputs to the LR bus,
use the channel screen and select input source.
The MixPre-6M is capable of recording and streaming audio to a USB host
simultaneously. It is also capable of recording the USB audio stream out of a
computer directly to its SD recorder. This is an amazingly useful feature for
recording any computer-based audio.
See the table below detailing the MixPre-6M’s channel to output assignments.
