USB Driver Installation on the PC

This driver for the KEYSTATION USB interface requires Windows 98 or higher.
Please make sure that Windows 98, ME, or 2000 is installed on your system, and that
your USB port is enabled.  Check your computer manual for more information. 

1. Boot Windows with the KEYSTATION (powered on) connected, or connect it

after Windows has been booted.

2. When the Add New Hardware Wizard reports that it detected an Unknown

Device, click “Next.”

3. On the next screen select the “Search for the best driver for your device” item

& click “Next”.

4. Indicate to Windows where to look for the driver installation files.  Select

“Choose Path,” then type in (or browse until you locate) [your CD ROM drive
letter]:\KEYSTATION\USB.  In most cases this will be
d:\KEYSTATION\USB, but your CD drive may be a different drive letter.  

5. On the next screen, Windows will indicate it has searched for the driver files

for the “Midiman USB KEYSTATION Loader” and is now ready to install the
driver.  Click the “Next” button to continue.

6. Windows will copy files and then indicate it has finished installing the

software that your new hardware device requires.  Click the “Finish” button.

7. Next you will see Windows indicate that it has found another Unknown

Device & then see it automatically install the software for the “Midiman USB
KEYSTATION Midi Driver”.

Hold on, we’re not done yet.

8. The Add New Hardware Wizard will once again report it has detected an

Unknown Device, click “Next”.

9. On the next screen select the “Search for the best driver for your device.” item

& click “Next”.

10. Indicate to Windows where to look for the driver installation files (this should

be the exact same place you had Windows look for the previous software), the
click the “Next” button.

11. On the next screen, Windows will indicate it has searched for the driver files

for the “Midiman USB KEYSTATION Midi Driver” and is now ready to install
the driver.  Click the “Next” button to continue.

12. Windows will copy files and then once again indicate it has finished installing the

software that your new hardware device requires.  Click the “Finish” button.

The software drivers are now all loaded and functional. If you look in the Device
Manager, you will find 2 parts for the KEYSTATION driver; one under the
“Universal Serial Bus” controller group and the other under the “Sound, video,
& game controllers” group.

Your KEYSTATION is ready for use.  Refer to the sections “Setting Up Your
MIDI Studio” and “Using the KEYSTATION in your Application Software” for

more information.
