    How to Register your Behringer to Get the Full Warranty<\/p>

    If you register your Behringer product within the first 90 days of purchase, you get the full 3-year warranty. Let us explain how.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/a>\n\n\n\n

    TIP<\/strong>: Everything you purchase from Sweetwater<\/strong> comes with our 2-year Total Confidence Coverage (TCC) warranty<\/a>. However, three years is even better than two, so please register with Behringer today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Download and install Behringer drivers (Windows users only)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    After registration, the next step is to download and install the required PC (Windows) driver. A driver isn\u2019t necessary on a Mac OS because Behringer interfaces are class-compliant<\/a> and do not need additional software to connect. Follow the steps below to install the necessary driver software for Windows. If you\u2019re a Mac user, skip this section and continue to Set up and connect your gear<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Visit the Behringer Products page<\/a>, and under “Audio Interfaces,” select your product.<\/li>
    2. On your product’s individual page, click\u00a0Downloads<\/strong>. Under “Drivers, USB, Audio,” locate the newest version of the driver. Download it and install it according to the instructions.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Do I need to use the ASIO4ALL driver?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Although most Behringer audio interfaces have their own driver (version 4.38 as of July 2018), some of the smaller interfaces will require the third-party driver, ASIO4All. These interfaces include the UMC22, UM2, UCA222, and UCA202. Check out our ASIO4ALL setup guide<\/a> for instructions on how to install and configure it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Set up and connect your gear<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Once connected, the last step is to set up your gear and configure your computer\u2019s audio settings. The process is effortless, so you’ll be making music in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      USB CONNECTION TIP<\/strong>: We highly recommend connecting your interface directly to your computer, preferably a USB 2.0 port. USB hubs may not provide enough power to your interface, resulting in connectivity issues, and connecting to a USB 3.0 port may result in connectivity issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Turn the Volume knob all the way down, then connect your speakers.\n
