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 www.behringer.com. Most users will
benefit from the most recent version (2.8.17) of the driver, but rare com-
puter chipsets may require the older 2.8.14 version.
