USB Audio Interface
The XB-14 is equipped with a stereo bi-directional USB 1.1 compliant audio CODEC. It is fully compliant with USB 2
ports and uses standard Windows and MAC Core Audio Drivers. In other words, plug it in and your computer will find it
and be able to transfer audio to and from the XB-14 USB device.
You will need some form of audio software running on your computer to be able to record and play back what you re-
cord, but on a basic level, you can use your computers media player to play straight to the XB-14 device.
Just a couple of points to look out for:
1. When you plug in your XB-14 USB interface to your Windows computer, check the device volume in:
Control Panel\Sounds & Audio Devices\Volume
Then drag it fully up
like this…...
Then click Apply
2. By default Windows will use its WDM driver for the data stream from the USB audio device. There are other driv-
ers available from third party companies like ASIO4ALL (www.asio4all.com) who supply ASIO drivers for WDM audio
which is free to end users.
