Connect the USB input to any PC/MAC using a good quality USB A to B cable not exceeding 4.5M.
To use USB input, simply press the USB button on the front panel or remote control
Play some music on the host computer.
When a valid audio data stream is detected, display will show ‘locked’
On the host computer, a new mixer will be available, which is the default mixer whenever the DAC is plugged
in. Use this mixer to select the source or adjust levels if required. CD, MP3, WAV files played on any software
should now play through the DAC. This device has been designed to work with Windows® 98, ME, 2000, XP,
Vista, 7 and 8, Linux and Apple® OS
The computer drivers for the USB input of the M6SCD should install automatically. To check correct installation
follow these steps:
PC users
Check the computer has picked up the device and is currently using it by clicking: (most Windows versions)
- Start
- Settings
- Control panel
- Sounds and Multimedia
- Audio
Check “M6SCD 24/96” appears under PREFERRED AUDIO DEVICE tab.
Mac users
Check the computer has picked up the device and is currently using it by clicking: (MAC OS X®)
- System preferences
- Hardware
- Sound
Check that “M6SCD 24/96” is selected under the OUTPUT tab.
If the computer’s warning sounds/chimes are to played through the DAC, make sure it is selected under the
SOUND EFFECTS tab too.
If you wish to have the music, only, played through it, deselect accordingly.
This device is a high speed serial data processor, and by its nature, requires a very high volume of USB
bandwidth. It will benefit greatly from being the only device connected on its USB ‘port’. Sharing the same port
with other devices may cause unwanted artefacts such as dropouts or temporary loss of signal. This especially
includes the use of the DAC on a USB hub/splitter alongside other USB components.
Please note the USB input does not work directly with iPhone® or iPod® products. To obtain digital output from
such devices, please use a “dock with SP/DIF digital output” which can then be fed into either of the SP/DIF
digital inputs provided on this unit.
