16.3. Using the LP-16 as an Audio Interface with OS X
16.3.1. Minimum System Requirements
Operating Systems:

Hardware:
• Any Mac hardware compatible with OS X 10.7 or higher
• 512 MB Ram (1GB or more recommended)
• 1 free USB 2.0 compatible port
!
NOTE: The speed of your processor, amount of RAM, and capacity, size, and speed of your hard
drives will greatly affect the overall performance of your recording system.
A faster processor and more RAM can reduce signal latency (delay) and improve overall
performance.
16.3.2. Driver Installation
There is no driver installation for OS X Computers necessary. Simply connect the LP-16 to your
Mac® by connecting the supplied USB cable to the LP-16 USB2.0 connector on the rear panel,
and an available USB2.0 port on your Mac.
The device will now be selectable in the “Audio MIDI Setup” application, which can be found in
the Applications/Utilities folder.
Note that no custom LP-16 mixer control panel is available for the Mac, as there is when using
the LP-16 with Windows. The internal DSP mixer of the LP-16 is not available when connected to
a Mac, so all monitoring must be done through the DAW software.

• iOS® 5 or higher
Hardware:

16.4.2. Driver Installation

iPad® using the appropriate Apple USB adapter.
The LP-16 can now be used as a 2-input, 18-output audio interface with the iPad® and appropriate
