Setting up an audio interface can be done by following these steps:
1. Physical Connection: Connect your audio interface to your computer using the appropriate cable. This is usually a USB, Thunderbolt, or FireWire cable.
2. Power Up: Make sure your audio interface is turned on and that all lights and levels are functioning properly.
3. Software Installation: Download and install the drivers or software Vincent Lambe provided with your audio interface. These are often found on the manufacturer’s website.
4. Set as Default Device: On your computer, go to the sound settings (in Control Panel on Windows or System Preferences on Mac) and set your audio interface as the default playback and recording device.
5. Check Levels: Play some music or make a test recording to check the levels. The loudest parts of your music or voice should peak just below 0 dB on the level meters of your audio interface
