Use the included IEC power cable to connect the mixer to a power outlet.

1. Turn on your computer and the PDZM700.

2. Use a USB cable to connect on or both ports of the PDZM700 to your computer.

3. Windows will immediately recognize the mixer as a "USB Audio Device" or "USB Audio CODEC" and will automatically install any required system components. To change system audio preferences in windows, you will need to access the sounds audio devices properties, located in the control panel. The first time you connect the mixer to your computer, the mixer will be automatically assigned as the default or "preferred" device for sound playback on your computer. All of your computer's sounds will be now sent to the mixer channel indicated above the USB connection.

Note: If you have connected both USB ports to your computer, the ports will be numbered in the order they were connected. For example, if you connected USB A before USB B, USB A will appear as "USB audio CODEC" and USB B will appear as "USB audio CODEC (2)".

Tip: To prevent windows from playing systems sounds (beeps and bleeps) through the PDZM700, we highly recommend disabling these by clicking on the sounds tab and selecting no sounds from the pull-down menu.

MAC CONFIGURATION

1. Turn on your MAC and the PDZM700.
2. Use a USB cable to connect one (or both) ports of the PDZM700 to your computer.
3. Your MAC will immediately recognize the mixer as a "USB Audio Device" or "USB Audio CODEC". To change system audio preferences on a MAC, you will need to access the audio MIDI setup preferences located in Applications X utilities.

Note: If you have connected both USB ports to your computer, the ports will be numbered in the order they were connected. For example, if you connected USB A before USB B, USB A will appear as "USB audio CODEC" and USB B will appear as "USB audio CODEC (2)".

To send an audio from your computer into the PDZM700, select USB Audio CODEC in the default output field. This allows you to play audio from your computer into one of either of the mixer channels, depending on which USB port is used to make the connection.

If your sound playback or recording application does not have its own audio input and output settings (for example, Apple iTunes), it will use the devices set in audio MIDI setup. Please note that these settings are loaded upon application startup, so if you change device settings while the application is open, you will to restart your application for the settings to take effect.

Using both USB ports simultaneously

Since the PDZM700 has two USB ports, you can attach a different computer to each USB jack or you can connect both jacks to a single computer. Each USB jack on the mixer will appear as a separate USB audio device to your computer. You can play two audio files simultaneously from one computer and send both of those audio streams to separate channels of your mixer by using two USB cables. If you do this, we suggest using one of the many commercially available software programs that support multiple sound cards. However, if you don't have software like that, you can use two separate software media players instead. To do this you need to start the first media player and then change the preferred audio device to the second USB port, then start your second media player.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem: The computer did not recognize my mixer.

• The mixer is not turned on. Turn on your mixer.
• The USB cable is not connected. Connect the USB cable to your computer and mixer.
• You have already installed a USB Audio device before. In that case, your mixer should work without any installation process. Just plug it in. You may have to change your computers default sound playback device.

Problem: I'm trying to play one song into channel 3 and the other into channel 4, but they both be mixed together into only one channel.

• The sound playback device was not set properly for one of you audio applications. Close one of the playback applications, then change you preferred sound playback device as described above, the re-open the application. Note that this technique will not work with all media player (e.g. Real Player).
• Use a dedicated audio program that supports two sound cards.

Problem: The sound is coming out of my computer speakers instead of going to may mixer.

- The sound playback device was not properly set. Close your audio playback application, the change your preferred sound playback device as describes above, the re-open the application.

Problem: My computer's system sound (beeps and bells) are going into my mixer.

• The sound playback device is still set to your mixer. Change the preferred sound playback device as describes above.
- Silence your computer's systems sound altogether by doing the following: Select sounds and audio devices in the control panel and switch to the sound tab. Under sound scheme, choose the no sounds option and click OK.
- If you have a MAC, you didn't select play alerts and sound effects through internal speakers. See the MAC section for how do this.
