USB Connector
USB (Universal Serial Bus) V1.1 is an external peripheral
interface standard for data transmission. Xone:S2 USB
works at 12Mbps and provides two stereo uncom-
pressed audio channels. It is fully compatible with USB2.
The USB connection is used to send and receive audio
data between the Xone:S2 and a connected computer.
Use a standard type A to B lead to connect to your
computer.
In the default configuration, the USB input to PC is from
the RCA Phono connectors on the rear of the mixer.
Internal option links can be set to change this to the
pre-fade mix output.

Use closed-ear headphones that provide maximum

ommend that you use high quality headphones rated be-
tween 30 to 100 ohms impedance. 8 ohm headphones
are not recommended.
