The MAC OS 9 drivers.
The PHASE 26 USB System is equipped with a special ASIO driver. The MIDI port is not
available under MAC OS 9. Furthermore, the Sound Manager is not supported. The
functions of the ASIO ControlPanel are pretty much identical to those of the Windows
Version. In the version that is currently being shipped, direct monitoring is not supported
by the MAC OS9 ASIO driver.
The MAC OS X drivers.
Under OS X (currently OS 10.2.6), the PHASE 26 USB System is implemented com-
pletely using the Apple CoreAudio and CoreMIDI connection. No special drivers need to
be installed. If you like, you can configure the PHASE 26 USB System as the standard
recording and playback device under “System Preferences -> Sound”.

Likewise, in audio applications such as Cubase SX or Emagic Logic, the CoreAudio/MIDI
driver can be selected. Usually there is also a setting you can adjust for buffer sizes so
that you can accelerate the access to the audio system. The latency under CoreAudio is
comparable to the common ASIO latency under Windows/OS9.
