If you connect two STUDIO-CAPTURE units to a computer, you’ll be able to use them as a 32-in/20-out audio interface. The following procedure will guide you through setting up two STUDIO-CAPTUREs to be used simultaneously with Windows.

NOTE: 

• The STUDIO-CAPTURE driver must be installed prior to following the setup below. You may install the driver from the included setup disc or download the driver by clicking here.
• A maximum of two STUDIO-CAPTURE units can be synchronized.
• When using two units, they cannot be used with the 96 and 192 kHz setting.

Before you start making settings, disconnect both STUDIO-CAPTURE units from the computer and turn off their power.

1. Switch on the power to the second STUDIO-CAPTURE unit. The second STUDIO-CAPTURE unit will be the timing master.
2. Specify the sampling rate of your choice:
         a. Press the   knob to access the SYSTEM screen.
         b. Use the  buttons to choose “SAMPLE RATE.”
         c. Turn the  knob to change the sample rate to a desired setting.
   
   
3. Use the  buttons and  knob to make the following system settings:
   
   
4. Switch on the power to the first STUDIO-CAPTURE unit.
5. Set the first unit to the same sampling rate as the second unit and then make the following settings in the SYSTEM screen:
   
6. In order to digitally synchronize the two units, use a digital coaxial cable to connect the second unit’s COAXIAL OUT (9/10) to the first unit’s COAXIAL IN (15/16).
7. Connect the both STUDIO-CAPTURE units to the computer.
   NOTE: Connect the two USB cables to USB ports that are near each other.
8. Configure the STUDIO-CAPTURE in your computer:
   
   When using with Windows, the two STUDIO-CAPTURE units must be connected to the same USB controller.
   
   Windows 8:
       a. Move your mouse to the top-right of the screen. The Charms bar appears on the right hand side of the screen.
       b. Click on "Settings".
       c. Click on "Control Panel".
       d. On the top-right of the Control Panel window, set the “View by:” to “Small Icons”.
       e. Double-click on the STUDIO-CAPTURE icon.
   
   Windows 7, Vista & XP:
       a. Click on the Windows (or Start) icon on the bottom left of your screen.
       b. Click on "Control Panel".
       c. On the top-right of the Control Panel window, set the “View by:” to “Small Icons" (7 and Vista only).
       d. Double-click on the STUDIO-CAPTURE icon.
   
   In the STUDIO-CAPTURE Driver Settings window, select the VS EXPAND check box. Make sure that the “OK” indication is shown.
   
   
   
   NOTE: If this does not indicate “OK,” proceed as directed below:
   
   • If “USB controller does not match” is shown:
     Connect the second STUDIO-CAPTURE unit to a different USB port and keep trying other USB ports until the indication is “OK” or “Sampling rate does not match.”
     * Alternatively, you can ensure that the two STUDIO-CAPTURE units are connected to the same USB controller by connecting them both to a USB 2.0 compliant hub.
   • If “Sampling rate does not match” is shown:
     Disconnect both USB cables from the computer, turn off the power of the first unit, and start again from step 4. Connect each STUDIO-CAPTURE unit to the same USB port.
   • If nothing is shown in the VS EXPAND section:
     Disconnect both USB cables from the computer, turn off the power of both STUDIO-CAPTURE units, and start again from step 1.
9. Connect your headphones to the PHONES jack of the first STUDIO-CAPTURE unit. The number of audio ports will increase, allowing you to record and play back using 32-in/20-out.
