Using Audio MIDI setup in OS X Mavericks
(10.9)
In OS X Mavericks (10.9), two options appear in the Audio
Devices list: US-1200 (Bit Accurate) and US-1200 (Core Audio).
Only the “US-1200 (Bit Accurate)” setting can be used as the
input or output device.
Do not use the “US-1200 (Bit Accurate)” option.
NOTE
• When the “US-1200 (Bit Accurate)” option can be selected
in a DAW or other software, using it should make recording
and playback more stable.
• The “US-1200 (Bit Accurate)” option cannot be used with
applications downloaded from the Mac App Store. Use the
“US-1200 (Core Audio)” option with such applications.
