2.Installation
Windows XP/ Vista/ Mac OSX
Connect the Midistart music 25 keyboard to an available USB port on your computer with the USB cable
provided. If the PC is running, switch the keyboard on with the power switch.
As the Midistart music 25 is a "Class Compliant" device, you do not need to install special
software drivers. Windows XP;Vista and Mac OSX will automatically recognize the new device and
establish it as "USB audio equipment" within the system. Once established it is ready to start
use. Should you have previously used other USB audio equipment on this same USB port, it
is advisable to choose another USB port that has never previously had audio equipment
installed. This ensures that an Midistart "exclusive" is established at this port.
