cause damage to either your computer’s or Ozonic’s FireWire ports. Please review the hot-plugging advisory at the beginning of this manual

The Software Control Panel
Ozonic’s driver software installation includes a Control Panel—a simple yet powerful interface with your computer and Digital Audio
Workstation software. The Control Panel gives you a software mixer with 4 virtual outputs from your audio software, and 4 input channels
from the Ozonic’s hardware inputs. Each mixer channel input pair may be routed to any of the Ozonic’s analog outputs.
The Ozonic Control Panel is installed in your system after you have completed the driver installation procedure. To open the Control Panel:
In Windows – A tiny icon in the shape of a knob will be placed in the system tray, generally located at the bottom of your Windows desktop.
Double click this icon to open the Control Panel.
On the Mac – The Ozonic Control Panel can be found in System Preferences. In OS X, go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > M-Audio
FireWire.
In either Windows or on the Mac, the Ozonic Control Panel can also be opened from an ASIO-compliant music program’s audio setup page
(ASIO not applicable to Mac OS X).
The Ozonic Control Panel gives you a great deal of control, and you may find that the default settings are sufficient for your needs. Depending
on how you record, you may never have to make an adjustment to these settings. But in the event that you want to customize your settings,
the following section explains the Control Panel in great detail.
