USB Audio Interface
The MixPre-10M has an integrated 12-in, 4-out core audio-compatible interface
for use with a Mac or PC computer.
For PC users, the MixPre-10M will appear as a 2x2 audio interface unless
a specic ASIO driver is installed. The latest ASIO driver, along with install
instructions, is available for free at www.sounddevices.com/support/downloads.
See the MixPre-10M’s Downloads page.
To work with the USB audio from a host computer, it is necessary to route the
USB 1 - 4 sources appropriately. Should you want to mix the USB audio from
the host computer with live audio from the MixPre-10M’s inputs to the LR bus,
use the channel screen and select input source.
The MixPre-10M is capable of recording and streaming audio to a USB host
simultaneously. The MixPre-10M is also capable of recording the USB audio
stream out of a computer directly to its SD recorder. This is an amazingly useful
feature for recording any computer-based audio. See the table below detailing
the MixPre-10M’s channel to output assignments.
