How to Operate the MP1100, con't
USB Output Operation and Driver Installation
The MP1100 USB Output provides the capability to
record music on your computer from the playback of
Phonograph Recordings through the MP1100 Phono
Preamplifier, when the computer is connected to the
rear panel USB connector.
Notes: 1. The MP1100 USB Output is for direct connec-
tion to a computer USB using a single input only.
2. To playback music from an USB Drive, connect
the USB Drive to another USB Port on the com-
puter and select the USB Drive with the Media
Playback Program.
The MP1100 USB Output is compatible with PC
Computers using Microsoft®, Windows 7 (SP1), Win-
dows 8.1 and Windows 10. It is also compatible with
Apple® Macintosh® Computers using OS-10.6.8 or
later.
When using a PC Computer with Windows, a spe-
cial McIntosh USB Audio Software Driver needs to be
installed on the PC Computer. The driver needs to be
installed before connecting the MP1100 USB Output
to the USB Port on the computer.
Notes: 1. If your computer already has a McIntosh Win-
dows USB Audio Software Driver (for current
McIntosh Preamplifiers or Integrated Ampli-
fiers) installed, it is VERY IMPORTANT TO
FIRST UNINSTALL THE DRIVER BEFORE
PROCEEDING. The new driver to be installed
in the following steps offers additional capa-
bilities for the MP1100 and is compatible with
current McIntosh Preamplifiers or Integrated
Amplifiers
2. If an Apple Macintosh computer is used with
the MP1100, no additional driver is required.
