Windows 2000/ME/98SE Users
The procedure for Windows 2000/ME/98SE is identical to the procedure for Windows XP, with the only
exception being the need to have the WinZip Utility Program installed. WinZip can be downloaded either as
a demo version (free) or a commercial version (charge) from www.winzip.com and installed on your PC.
USB Flash/Pen Drive Method (recommended)
***Requires a USB Flash/Pen drive with the appropriate drivers for Windows 2000/ME/98SE***
1. Download the Digital X Bus software update from www.mackie.com to your local hard drive.
2. Insert a USB Flash Drive into your computer. You may have to install special drivers to interface your
PC with your USB Flash drive…see the USB Flash Drive product documentation for more information.

Digital X Bus.
