Installation

OMS settings

Here’s how to make OMS settings. Before you make these settings, make
sure that the MIDI devices connected to your Macintosh and all peripherals
are powered up.

Use a USB cable to connect the VariOS to your computer, and turn on the
power of the VariOS.

serial port, check the port to which it is
connected.

If AppleTalk is on, a dialog
box will appear, asking you
whether to turn it off or
leave it on. We recommend
that you use the Chooser in
the Apple menu to inactive
AppleTalk.

Easy method using the sample settings

The "Driver" folder of the CD-ROM contains a sample OMS setup file
named "VariOS OMS Studio." As an easy way to make OMS settings, you
can copy this file into the "Opcode" folder of your hard disk, double-click to
open it, and continue the setup procedure from step 9 of p. 37.

If the

“Create a New

Studio Setup”

dialog box

does not appear, select the

File

menu and click “New

Studio Setup.”

If an error dialog box is
displayed during the setup,
disconnect all MIDI cables
connected to the VariOS,
and make the OMS settings
once again.

MIDI devices that are not
powered up will not be
detected automatically by
OMS. If a MIDI device that
you thought was connected
is not detected, click

[Troubleshoot]

and follow

the on-screen directions.
