FW-1884

This guide is designed to quickly get you started using the FW-1884. If you have any
problems or questions during setup, the Owner’s Manual covers this in much more detail.

1.

Plug the included FireWire cable into the FW-1884’s

FireWire port and your computer’s FireWire port.

Don’t turn on the power yet.

2.

Insert the FW-1884 Software and Documentation

CD-ROM into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. The

installer will automatically launch. Click OK on the

screen. If the installer asks you where it should look

for drivers, select the installation CD-ROM. Follow

the on screen instructions.

3.

Restart your computer. When it has restarted, turn

on the FW-1884 using the power switch on the back

right side of the unit.

4.

The New Hardware Wizard will launch when it sees

your new hardware. Click “Next” on the fi rst screen.

If you see any messages telling you that the product

hasn’t passed Windows Logo Testing, click “Continue

Anyway.” After the fi rst driver is installed, the New

Hardware Wizard will fi nd new hardware and walk

you through the installation process two more times.

5.

Open the “DAW Plugins” folder. Find the ASIO plug-

in for your DAW recording software. If none exists,

check the TASCAM website for a new driver.
