Using the iTrack Solo with a Mac or PC

You can also use your iTrack Solo as an analogue audio I/O (Input-Output) interface to a laptop (or
other computer). This will let you record tracks on your DAW from a microphone, guitar, etc., and
also let you connect loudspeaker or headphone monitoring, so you can hear your work in progress
through an external audio system.

Software Installation

You will need to install the appropriate drivers onto your laptop/computer before you can you use the
iTrack Solo with it. (Drivers are small software applications which ensure that your laptop/computer
communicates correctly and efficiently with the iTrack Solo).
The drivers can be downloaded from www.focusrite.com/downloads. Navigate to the iTrack Solo
download area.

Mac OS

Select the Mac disk image (*.dmg) version of the driver to start the download. Double-click the file
from the Downloads folder and then run the installation package (*.pkg). Follow all on-screen
instructions; a confirmation will be given when the driver has been installed successfully.
Your OS should automatically switch the computer's default audio outputs to be the USB port to which
the iTrack Solo is connected. To verify this, go to System Preferences > Sound, and set the
input and output to iTrack Solo. For more detailed setup options on a Mac, open Applications
> Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup.
