3.3.2.1 Verification of successful installation in macOS
After driver installation, let’s test playback and make sure we get indication of proper performance before
claiming victory.
First, we will set up the Aurora as the default audio device in macOS. To do so, from finder click GO >
UTILITIES > AUDIO MIDI SETUP. Make sure that the Audio page is open (if not, you can open it from the
Windows menu). You will see Aurora
(n)
listed as one of the Audio devices. Highlight Aurora in the list, right-
click and choose “use for sound output”, or you can click the Gear icon at the bottom left corner of the
window and choose “use for sound output”. It should now have the Speaker icon next to it.
Next, we open the NControl application from Applications > NControl.
Next, we will test playback using iTunes. Open a known good file and hit play. Open NControl and look at
the output meters in the bottom row. Do we see meter activity?
