    First, if you have the ASIO4All audio driver on your computer, delete it from the computer.
    Second, go to the Lexicon web site, download and install the latest audio drivers for your operating system.
    Once that's done, open MC and change the Driver Mode to ASIO. You may have to then close and re-open MC.
    Under Options>Audio in MC, select the Omega for both record and playback device and select the Omega drivers under the Drivers tab. Deselect everything else.
    Assuming you have an XLR cable for the mic, plug that in to mic 1 or mic 2.
    In MC, select the Omega input you have the mic plugged into to record that mic.
    Connect your powered speakers to the Omega's line outs. Or a stereo amplifier if you don't have powered speakers. Or plug your headphones into it.
    There may be hardware controls (buttons, knobs) on the Omega to choose which output you want to use, or there may be software controls to do that.
    Let us know how it goes.
