Testing your set-up with InterReView
™
Once the software is installed and the devices are connected,
you are ready to test the connections. We provide a software
utility (InterReView) that will check your set up and verify
that all components are working correctly. This step is
optional but recommended.
1. Launch and run InterReView. InterReView was installed
into the "InterView" folder inside the "XLR8 Folder" on
your system disk.
2. You are now ready to begin configuring your video.

Connecting the devices
XLR8’s InterView is fully compatible with Mac USB. Since
USB is a fully “hot-swapable”technology (you can unplug or
re-plug anytime), it is easy to connect the device.
1. Connect InterView’s USB connector to your Mac.
2. Connect a video source to one of InterView’s video in
sockets. You need to choose between using the standard
RCA composite connector or the professional
S-Video connector.
Note:
Since interView uses “female” connectors (like the
video source), you will need to use the A/V extension
cable which came with your video source.
3. Interview uses the microphone (sound in) port on the
Mac for recording audio. Connect the InterView audio
adapter to your Mac’s microphone port.
4. Connect the audio source of your camcorder, VCR or
tuner to the InterView audio adapter using the A/V cable
that came with your video equipment.
5. You are now ready to test your connections.
