Installing the ASIO driver

You must install the PCR-1 driver even if you will be using only audio on the
PCR-1. Be sure to install the PCR-1 driver before you install the ASIO driver.
(

Installing the PCR-1 driver

(p. 33))

This section explains how to install the ASIO driver that allows the PCR-1 to
be used by your sequencer software or audio editing software.
For details on installation and settings of the ASIO driver, be sure to also read
the

Driver E (Mac OS 9) - Readme_E.htm

document on the CD-ROM.

The ASIO driver of the PCR-1 supports the following audio input/output
channels.

• Audio input ........ 24/16 bit

1 stereo ch. (2 monaural chs.)

• Audio output ...... 24/16 bit

1 stereo ch. (2 monaural chs.)

Here we will explain how to install the ASIO 1.0 16 bit-compatible driver.

1

From the

Driver E (Mac OS 9) - ASIO

folder of the CD-ROM, copy

[PCR-1

ASIO1.0 16bit]

to the

ASIO Drivers

folder of the ASIO-compatible software

you are using (e.g., Cubase VST, Logic Audio, Digital Performer, Metro, or
SPARK LE).

2

Start up your ASIO-compatible software.

3

Open the

Audio setting

dialog box of your ASIO-compatible software, and

select

[PCR-1 ASIO1.0 16bit]

as the

ASIO Device

.

ASIO

(Steinberg Audio

Stream In/Out Interface)
This is an audio interface
standard promoted by the
Steinberg Corporation.
When the PCR-1 is used
with ASIO-compatible
software, the
synchronization precision
will be improved, allowing
a more sophisticated music
production environment.

The PCR-1 cannot play back audio data from the Macintosh’s sound
manager (such as audio CDs and alert sounds).

If your ASIO-compatible software supports ASIO 2.0 or recording/
playback of 24 bit audio data, using the following drivers will provide a
higher quality environment.

The Audio setting dialog
box will be named
differently depending on
your software. For details
refer to the manual of your
software.

For details on adjusting the
audio latency and using
ASIO Direct Monitor, refer
