USB AUDIO SYSTEM

The 16-channel USB2.0, 48kHz/24bit audio system built into the XONE:DB2 makes it the perfect

interface for use with Digital Audio Workstation software. The mixer deals with the processor

intensive effects work, leaving the computer lightly loaded to better stream the audio data. Another

advantage is that all processing is kept in the digital domain, especially if the DAW is used to

simultaneously record the mix. MIDI compatible DAWs can be controlled from the DB2 via MIDI.

The supplied low-latency drivers must be installed before connecting the

XONE:DB2 to a computer; see page 28 for PC installation, or page 31 for

Mac installation.
