Initial Setup
The following steps will help you set up and integrate your mio4 as easily as possible.
1. Connect a Mac or PC to rear-panel USB Device jack 2, using the supplied USB-A to USB-B
cable.
This provides the mio4 with power over the USB bus. (It can also be powered by the optional
iConnectivity power adapter.)
2. Download and install the included iConfig software to a Mac or PC from
www.iconnectivity.com/support/downloads. Launch the program.
iConfig will automatically check to ensure your interface has the latest firmware installed.
mio4 is shipped from the factory with a default configuration that includes MIDI routing and
merging between all the connected devices. You can operate the mio4 in this default
configuration, or use iConfig to customize the routing and MIDI management for your specific
needs. Custom settings can be saved on the interface for next use.
mio4 requires no driver software to operate on either Mac OS X or Windows.
(The exception is that Network MIDI on Windows computers requires the rtpMIDI driver:

)
3. Connect your MIDI devices and/or an additional Mac or PC to the interface. Your interface
can also operate stand-alone without a computer using the optional iConnectivity power
adapter.
For detailed information about hardware connections, please see the
4. The mio4's MIDI routings are in the factory default state, which is a "one size fits all" setup
that you can reconfigure. Your Mac/PC DAW software automatically sees all the available 16-
channel MIDI port sources and destinations the mio4 provides, and connected MIDI devices
are routed to both computers and to each other.
