Guide to Getting Started Quickly
Here is what is required to get your Audiophile USB up and running:
1. Insert the included Drivers CD into your CD drive and locate the
Audiophile USB folder. Within that folder, open the folder for the
operating system that you are currently using and run the Audiophile
USB Installer program.
NOTE: Windows 98SE users will need the Microsoft Windows 98SE CD-ROM.
2. Plug the included power supply into your wall socket and the
Audiophile USB’s Power Jack. Then attach the Audiophile USB to your
computer with the included USB cable and power the unit “On.” (On
Windows, this will bring up the New Hardware Wizard, after which
installation will be complete.)
3. Configure your digital recording software to use the Audiophile USB as
its active audio device (see “Using the Audiophile USB with your
Software Application” and also your software application’s manual).
4. Hook up your digital and analog audio gear (see “Audiophile USB
Recording Tutorials”). Configure your Audiophile USB Control Panel
software for proper monitoring and playback.
