Rega DAC-R - Manual (Page 11)

USB Setup and connectivity
Connect a USB A-B type lead (as illustrated) from the DAC USB to a USB
output on your PC. IMPORTANT: Before you can use the USB function of
the DAC-R you must first download the Rega USB Windows driver and
install it on your PC. This driver is available for download from the Rega
website, www.rega.co.uk. Go to ‘product range’ and select CD players /
DAC’, then DAC-R. Under product downloads on the product page you
will see the USB driver. Follow the instruction for installation. Once installed,
USB will be ready to use. The driver is not required for MAC OS.
USB A-B Lead (not supplied)
It is recommended to switch off any other system sounds emitted by the
PC via the control panel. In some systems, the DAC-R will automatically
become the default for your PC whilst connected. Once disconnected,
the previous default should be restored. If this does not happen, you can
manually reset as follows:
Windows Vista - Control Panel / Hardware & Sound/Manage Audio
Devices/select ‘USB Audio’ from list.
Windows7 - Control Panel / Sound / Manage Audio Devices / select
USB Audio
Windows 8 - Control Panel / Hardware and Sound / Sound / Advanced /
select USB Audio
Mac OS - System Preferences / Sound Output / Select ‘USB DAC’.
