MP2014 MANUAL
Class Compliant USB Ports
The USB ports are 100% class compliant, connecting to Mac OS X without the need for an additional driver. A high-
performance ASIO driver runs most Windows DAW and DJ software. MIDI end points are class compliant with both OS X
and Windows devices. Mac and Windows Control Panel installers with additional mixer settings are included on the CD-
ROM with the MP2014, and current versions available from the Downloads link in the MP2014 page at dj.rane.com.
ASIO (Windows)
A low-latency ASIO driver interfaces with most DJ and DAW audio software applications on Windows operating systems.
Multi-client ASIO allows different audio software applications to simultaneously stream audio to and from the MP2014.
If the same playback channel is selected in more than one application, the driver mixes the audio from the applications
before streaming it to the device. ASIO driver and Rane Control Panel system requires Windows 7-SP1, 8.1, or 10. The driver
Control Panel may be launched from the Windows Control Panel. Select Start > Control Panel > Rane Products.
Core Audio (Macintosh)
No driver installation is required. Connect the MP2014 to a Mac running OSX, and the MP2014 inputs and outputs become
available in your audio program. Install the Rane control panel to provide additional setting as described below.
