NOTE: The UCA222 will work on both PC and Mac computers without any
additional software. However, we recommend that PC users install the
low-latency USB ASIO driver for Windows XP/Vista, available for download on
our website at behringer.com. Most users will benet from the most recent
version (2.8.17) of the driver, but rare computer chipsets may require the older
2.8.14 version.
