Quick Start Guide
Setting up TouchMix-30 Pro with a computer: Windows driver installation, iOS Core Audio configuration, iTunes playback, and DAW setup
This quick start guide is to help you set up a computer with the QSC TouchMix-30 Pro digital mixer—for example, to use it as a digital audio workstation (DAW).
If your computer runs on the Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10 operating systems, you must first install the Windows driver before using the mixer
and computer together, including setting up the DAW. If your computer is a Mac, you may proceed and set up the DAW.
