DMAN with 3rd Party Applications
Sooner or later you will want to use DMAN with some of the
advanced 3rd party applications currently available. It is with
these applications that the DMAN becomes a true multi-track
digital audio recording tool. Although there are various setup
parameters built into Windows for selecting audio quality, etc.,
the 3rd party applications usually work around those settings.
IMPORTANT: 3rd party digital audio recording software often
bypasses the general Windows settings and instead has its own
means of setting up the DMAN record/playback sample rate,
format, full- and half-duplex settings.
For example, you often select the sampling rate (22 kHz, 44.1
kHz, and even 48 kHz on some products) and format (16-bit
stereo, 8-bit mono, etc.) directly from within that application.
However, you usually select the recording source (Mic, Line In,
Synth In, Mix In) from the mixer application supplied with
Windows 95 (or the input mixer application we install in
Windows 3.1).
In addition, the application may require you to explicitly select
the audio device by name for the application to use. This also
goes for MIDI applications -- they will require you to select the
DMAN MPU401 device as the MIDI input/output device.
Please consult the user’s manual that shipped with your 3rd party
application for more specific information regarding its audio and
MIDI configuration and setup.
