3. True plug’n’play operation with Mac
Mac computers with OSX 10.6.4 and later have a native support for audio devices
compliant with USB Audio Class 2.0. This means that the driver is already included in the
operating system and the user needs not to install anything: just connect the
hi
F
ace
T
wo
to your Mac and it will be immediately recognized by the OS and ready to use. Macs with
older OS need update to use the
hi

ace
T

.
To use
hi
F
ace
T
wo
as output device for your Mac, you need to select it as default output
device from the Audio Control Panel (Preferences -> Sound) as shown in Figure 2:

After selecting

, please check settings, particularly the output sampling
frequency (Figure 3): that setting forces the sampling frequency for the

,
regardless the native sampling frequency of the various tracks being played back (to get
rid of such unease operation mode, you may want to use a player which automatically
changes this setting based on each track’s native sampling frequency, Like Sonic Studio’s
Amarra or PureMusic).
