Input/output devices
In order to obtain the best performance from your software, you must make the appropriate input/
output device settings.
For details on these settings, refer to the owner’s manual for your software.
* If you are unable to select the UR-80 in the device settings for your software, it is possible that the UR-80

MIDI devices
Audio devices
MIDI OUT device
UR-80 MIDI OUT (Mac OS 9: UR-80 MIDI IN, OUT)
If you specify UR-80 MIDI OUT as the output port for your sequencer software, messages will
be transmitted from the MIDI OUT connector of the UR-80 itself.
UR-80 (Mac OS 9/8: UR-80 1)
Select this port if you want to send messages from your sequencer software to the UR-80 itself.
MIDI IN device
UR-80 MIDI IN (Mac OS 9: UR-80 MIDI IN, OUT)
If you specify UR-80 MIDI IN as the input port for your sequencer software, messages will be
input from the UR-80’s MIDI IN connector.
UR-80 1
UR-80 2
Select one of these ports if you want messages from the controllers to be received by your se-
quencer software. For each controller you can select the port that will be used. You may find it
convenient (for example) to use UR-80 1 for messages to be recorded on a track or used to control
a software synthesizer, and UR-80 2 for messages used to play back/stop your sequencer or
perform mixing.
Use UR-80 2 as the MIDI input device for UR-80 Editor.

This sends audio signals from your computer to the UR-80. Use this if you are using an applica-
tion that does not have a WDM driver mode, or if you want to use 24-bit audio with a non-ASIO
application (such as Cool Edit).
