mixpre 10-2 as audio interface in DAW

[nevo]

hello hive mind.

Im setting up a small laptop DAW with REAPER and was thinking about using my MixPre 10-2.

When  I plug into the Mixpre USB C port from my USB A on my computer The mixpre doesnt show up even as a 2x2 device in windows.

Im running the mixpre from a 240-12v .

I have downloaded the ASIO mixpre driver  but the mixpre which is windows compliant ? shhould show up as 2x2.

I can go back to running my  yamaha micpre box via ADAT into my ferro fish and going into ethernet but was trying to make a tiny rig.

Any thoughts

thanks Ant

Stating the obvious, but you do have System/USB-C set as 'Audio' not 'Power only' don't you?

The only USB function under system i can see is Normal or stereo  out......

The Mixpre 10 can not be powered by USB

Of course: my mistake (I was looking at my MixPre-3, which I also use as an interface). 'USB Audio' I have set as 'Normal'. R

Does your Windows computer installation support usb-c?

The usb-c to usb-a adapter doesnt change the protocol of the mixpre (usb-c).

Maybe you just need to install a driver...

It was the USB cable which worked for other purposes but not the MIXPRE .

New cable and ASIO drivers working.
