Utilities folder.

the “Properties For” drop-down box. Note that it
says U.420 and not U.420d, that’s all OK.

You can also choose it as your default input or
output, as well as designate it to be used for the
system sound output.

Audio host application (i.e., Tracktion, Logic,
Cubase, Nuendo, Live, Digital Performer, etc.).

tions for the PC or Mac, connect the U.420d to
your computer using the FireWire connection.
