1. About the Conectiv Drivers
Conectiv ships with a special set of audio drivers. These ASIO-compliant drivers
enable your computer to process sound efficiently, provide low latency and high
performance, and give full access to all of Conectiv’s inputs and outputs when
using audio applications such as Torq. You must install these drivers to get the best
performance from Conectiv.
While your computer will recognize Conectiv even if these drivers are not installed,
the included Torq software will not run and other audio applications may have
undesirably high latency. Furthermore, audio applications may not have full access
to all of Conectiv’s inputs and outputs if the drivers are not installed.
We advise all users to install the Conectiv drivers using the instructions below.
2. Windows XP Installation
1. We recommend that you download the most recent Conectiv drivers by
going to the Support > Drivers page at www.m-audio.com. This ensures
that you have the newest drivers available. If you do not have Internet
access, insert the SynchroScience CD-ROM into your computer to
install the drivers that came with Conectiv.

wire, be sure to connect each turntable’s ground wire to the grounding
connector located on the rear of the interface.
< Attach Conectiv’s outputs to your DJ mixer, powered speakers, or other
destination:
• If you are using an external DJ mixer, connect both outputs A and B
to separate line level inputs on your mixer.
• If you are mixing through your DJ software and are routing Conectiv’s
outputs directly to an amplifier or powered speakers, connect
output pair A to your destination device.
< Connect your headphones to the 1/4” headphone output on the front of
the interface. Alternatively, if you are using an external DJ mixer, you may
want to connect your headphones to the DJ mixer’s headphone output.
< If you’d like to use a microphone, connect a dynamic microphone to
Conectiv’s 1/4” microphone input on the front.
< Attach Conectiv to an available USB port on your computer using the
provided USB cable.
< If you want to use Conectiv in standalone mode for the purpose of
using its phono preamps without a host computer, or if your computer
cannot supply sufficient bus power to Conectiv, attach an optional power
adapter to the DC Power jack on the rear panel. The power adapter can
be ordered from the M-Audio Webstore (www.m-audio.com).
