Mac installation—step by step
Which operating system?
The PHASE 24 FW can only be used under Mac OS 10.3.4 (OS X) or higher. It can be
integrated easily using OS X CoreAudio and CoreMIDI.
Power supply
It should be possible to use the PHASE 24 FW without an AC adapter on a 6-pin Fire-
Wire™ connection. However, some FireWire™ controllers do not provide a consistently
adequate operating voltage. We therefore recommend the use of the included AC
adapter. This is also advisable if you would like to increase the battery life of your laptop,
or if you only have a 4-pin FireWire™ port, as the latter does not have the two power
conductors of the 6-pin port.
Installing the PHASE 24 FW driver in OS X
As mentioned above, the PHASE 24 FW uses the operating system's CoreAudio and
CoreMIDI drivers. It's therefore not necessary to install a device-specific driver. Simply
plug the device into your FireWire™ port and it's available immediately. However, to take
full advantage of advanced routing, samplerate switching and other features, please install
the included Control Panel. Simply run the installer in the
PHASE 24 FW\Driver & Control
Panel\MAC
folder.
The PHASE 24 FW as a system audio device (Mac OS X)
If you would like to use the PHASE 24 FW not only for specific audio applications, but as
your default Mac OS X audio device, select the PHASE 24 FW audio driver in the “Sound”
control panel as the default device for audio output.
Updating the firmware (Mac OS X)
Firmware updates for the PHASE 24 FW are currently only supported by Windows.
Please follow the instructions starting on
