control. This allows you to use the volume of your processor to adjust the level of 

your whole system. 

This is a configuration switch and must be set with the mINT 

powered completely off! 

Fixed Out/Main In 

 

In cases where your speakers require a active crossover for bi or tri-amping, 

an integrated amplifier can make things interesting. It can be impossible to insert a 

active crossover into the signal path of most integrated amps. The flexibility of the 

mINT doesn’t stop here. A selectable Main In feature has been incorporated to allow 

for just that! The main in feature is activated by selecting the “in position” on the 2 

position switch located on the rear panel. The signal will now be output through the 

Aux out and should be routed to the passive crossover. The signal from the outputs 

of the crossover should then be routed to the Main In input on the mINT. The signal 

fed to the Main In input will then be fed to the amplifier. 

The Fixed Out feature is activated by selecting the “out position” on the 2 

position switch. If fixed out is selected the mINT can be used for recording or to feed 

a signal to another system. The fixed out is 2.0V. 

This is a configuration switch and 

must be set with the mINT powered completely off! 

DC Trigger 

Near the middle of the rear panel is a 12V DC trigger in and out. If the HT 

bypass is not active the trigger In will turn the unit on from a standby state 

(illuminated green around the power button) and it will default to that last used 

input. When HT bypass is active the trigger in will power the mINT on directly to the 

Aux 2 input (HT bypass). Trigger out will be active whenever the mINT is powered 

on. (Current Rating 20mA) 

USB Configuration (MAC) 

When connecting to Mac computers the USB interface automatically installs 

the drivers into the operating system.  If you are using a PC, drivers are required for 

asynchronous operation and they are available for download on the Wyred 4 Sound 

website (http://www.wyred4sound.com/downloads.html). Please refer to the next 

section regarding USB setup for PC. If you are using a Mac please follow these 

directions.  

 (Please note: This USB device currently does not support Mac OS 10.5 or earlier) 

1.

 

Connect a USB cable from the mINT to the computer ( type: USB A to USB B ) 

with the mINT and computer powered on.
