•
•
•
Software features
UAX220v2 and UAX220-Mic comply with the USB Audio specification.
Therefore, and depending on the operating system used, they are compatible
with WDM DirectSound, ALSA, and CoreAudio. Furthermore, it is possible to
use a third-party ASIO driver (Asio4all, Ploytec).
HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
•
•
A USB port (standard 1.1 or higher)
Minimum Apple Macintosh configuration:
PowerMac G3, G4 or G5 with 128 MB RAM
Minimum PC configuration:
Pentium III (or equivalent), 256 MB RAM.
•
Supported operating systems
Windows XP
Mac OS X
Linux
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Connect the UAX220v2/UAX220-Mic to the USB port (USB 1.1 or 2.0) of
your computer. It will then automatically be detected by the operating system
and its driver will also be automatically installed.
Note:
If you have several USB peripherals connected to your computer, they
may consume more energy than the USB port can provide. In this
case, disconnect some of these peripherals.
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
Your UAX220v2/UAX220-Mic does not require any driver installation,
because it meets the USB Audio 1.0 standard, which is supported by your
operating system (Windows XP, Mac OS X, Linux).
∗
can be used with unbalanced signals

CONTROLS
UAX220v2 and UAX220-Mic feature switches and faders for manual controls
as well as adjustments via software.
Manual controls

•
48V (UAX220-Mic)
These two switches (one per input channel) allow enabling/disabling the
48 V phantom power for condenser microphones. This power supply is
activated on a channel when the corresponding LED is lit.
In1 and In2: (UAX220-Mic)
These two knobs allow adjusting the analog gain on each input, from
0 dB to +50 dB. The “Peak” LEDs light up when the input level is too
high.
Pad
This switch permits to attenuate the analog input signal level by -12dB.
The attenuation is active when the corresponding LED is lit.
1+2
This switch allows adding up the left and right input channels. The
summation is active when the corresponding LED is lit. The signal
arising from the summation is then available on the left and right
channels to be recorded, and/or to be sent to the outputs, if the
monitoring is activated.
Monitoring ON
This switch allows sending the input monitoring signal to the outputs
(modified by the various input adjustments)
Monitoring Mono
This switch allows monitoring on the summation of left and right
channels on the outputs. The summation is active when the
corresponding LED is lit.
Digital recording of the stream played
With “Monitoring Mono” activated and the “Monitoring On” disabled,
the UAX allows to record the played stream without passing through the
analog inputs/outputs. This makes it possible, for example, to record an
Internet broadcast using an application such as Windows Media Player.
Headphones out level adjustment
The knob marked with a headphones symbol allows adjusting the audio
level on the headphones output. This setting does not affect the line
outputs.

Software controls
Control Panel under Windows
To control the levels of your UAX220v2 or UAX220-Mic, use the Volume
Control application. To open this application, double-click onto the
loudspeaker icon in the Windows task bar. In case this icon is not displayed
in the task bar, go to , , , .
On the ‘Volume’ tab, check the box “Show volume icon in the task bar”.
The UAX220v2/UAX220-Mic offers Volume and Mute controls for the
outputs. These controls are not available for the inputs.

User’s manual
‘Loudspeaker’ volume control
The fader ‘Loudspeaker’ modifies the analog output gain of the
UAX220v2/UAX220-Mic. The applied gain varies from -60 dBr to +10 dBr, by
steps of 1 dB. These controls are applied to both line and headphones
outputs.
The check box ‘All mute’ in the loudspeaker section allows muting/unmuting
the outputs of your UAX220v2/UAX220-Mic.
‘Wave sounds’ volume control
The volume and mute controls are applied to the audio stream read by the
application. Therefore it is a digital gain adjustment.
11
D
Mac OS volume Control Panel
The fader ‘Output volume’ modifies the output level of the D/A converters of
UAX220v2/UAX220-Mic.
The ‘Mute’ checkbox next to the volume control allows to mute/unmute the
UAX220v2/UAX220-Mic outputs.

CONFIGURATION
UAX Manager
The UAX Manager application (available on the Digigram web site) allows
UAX220v2/UAX220-Mic to
•
either work at a fixed frequency (32 kHz, 44,1 kHz or 48 kHz),
or at the frequency defined by the application
•
to process the samples at 16 or 24 bits.
Default factory setting is: frequency fixed at 48 kHz, 24-bit sample resolution.
In the “sampling frequency set by audio application” mode, if the frequency of
the application is other than 32 kHz, 44,1 kHz or 48 kHz, then the UAX
works at 48 kHz and sample rate conversion is performed by the audio layers
of the operating system.
In the “Frequency fixed” mode, sample rate conversion is performed by the
audio layers of the operating system if the frequency of the application and the
frequency of the UAX are different.
