Audio and MIDI (Optional)
When the Drivers and Control Software were installed, Windows may have
automatically selected them as your default audio and MIDI outputs. This
means that your Windows sounds will be sent to the IO 42 rather than your
computer’s sound card. We need to check if these have been changed and
return the settings to what they were before.
1. Select Start>Control Panel>Sound and Audio Devices (XP) or
Hardware and Sound (Vista/7).
2. Select the Audio tab (XP) or Manage Audio Devices (Vista/7).
3. Under Sound Playback>Default device (XP), or Playback (Vista/7),
make sure your computer’s sound card is selected as the default device.
4. Under Sound Recording>Default device (XP), or Recording (Vista/7),
make sure your computer’s sound card is selected as the default device.
Under MIDI Music Playback>Default device, open the pull-down menu
and make sure Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth is selected as the default
device (XP only).
