creates an “AudioSport QUATTRO Asio” folder on your desktop, containing
the Quattro’s ASIO driver.

2. If you are using a music software program that utilizes ASIO drivers, then

locate the program’s ASIO folder (it will be found within the program’s folder
on your Macintosh HD). Drag the AudioSport ASIO driver (located in the
“AudioSport QUATTRO Asio” folder created by the Installer) to that folder. 

3. Properly shut down the computer. 
4.  Plug the Quattro wall-wart into your wall receptacle and to the Quattro 9vAC

power jack. 

5.  Connect the USB cable to your computer and the Quattro. Power up the

Quattro, then power up the computer.

For information on how to enable the Sound Manager to use the Quattro, see the
section  “The Quattro and the Macintosh Sound Manager”). For further
information on using and configuring ASIO drivers, see the section “ASIO
Operation on the Mac.” 

Configuring OMS

Go to the Control Panel or Chooser under the Apple Menu, and make sure AppleTalk
is turned off  (this is recommended, although OMS will sense that it is on and prompt
you to turn it off).  If you are installing your QUATTRO driver and configuring OMS
for the first time, follow these instructions to configure OMS. 

First Time OMS Configuration Instructions:

1. In the Opcode folder, which you will find on your hard drive, locate the OMS

Applications folder, then OMS Setup.  Double-click on OMS Setup.  

2. OMS will inform you that it has not yet been configured.  Click OK.
3. The “Create A New Studio Setup” dialog box now appears.  Click OK.
4. The “OMS Driver Search” box asks you to choose the port on which you’ve

attached the QUATTRO (either Modem or Printer).  DO NOT choose a port,
just click “Search.”  OMS begins Searching.  IMPORTANT: If the USB cable is
not correctly hooked up to the QUATTRO, setup will fail.

5. “OMS Driver Setup” shows the QUATTRO in a list when OMS successfully

finds the driver.  Click OK.  OMS will now define (shows “Identifying”) the
QUATTRO output port.  

6. The  “OMS MIDI Device Setup” dialog box will appear showing the

QUATTRO’s available output port with an open check box to the left of the
port.  You will have to check this open box at this time to enable the output
port.  Now click on OK.

7. Next, the “My Studio Setup” appears with a file save dialog box over it.  You

will now need to name and save your new Studio Setup (or use the default
name) before you can assign various instruments to the QUATTRO’s output
and input.  Assign your instrument (optional) and you are done. 

8. Your QUATTRO is ready for use with MIDI.
