USER MANUAL

Installation of the drivers and software

The Bitstream 3X is a « plug and play » device, fully compliant with the MIDI over USB specification.
This means that it doesn’t require a particular driver on any operating system OS’s compatible with this
specification, which is the case for almost any OS including Windows XP, MacOS X, and Linux.

Just connect your Bitstream 3X USB cable to a PC or a Mac, and it’s ready to use! 

Note 1: The first connection of the Bitstream 3X to the USB port will install automatically the generic
drivers. After the first connection, the Bitstream 3X will be immediately recognized.

Once the Bitstream 3X is recognized by the computer to which it is connected, the display screen will
indicate the connection by the USB bitmap on the top right.

Once   the   Bitstream   3X   is   recognized,   the   supplementary   MIDI   peripherals   will   be   listed.   These
correspond to the Bitstream 3X like this:

Peripheral listed

Name associated by default

C

   

orresponding to the Bitstream 3X

 

 

USB MIDI IN 1

USB audio device

USB MIDI OUT 1

USB MIDI IN 2

USB audio device [2]

USB MIDI OUT 2 

USB MIDI OUT

USB audio device

 

USB MIDI IN 

Note 2: Windows 98 and 2000 do not support MIDI-USB standards, if the Bitstream 3X is going to be
used with one of these systems, contact the support team at Wave Idea.

Note 3: Windows should be installed with the latest Windows update so that the communication MIDI –
USB functions perfectly. (Example Windows Xp service pack 2)

Note 4: A special Windows Xp driver is available from the Wave Idea website, it allows to change the
generic devices names listed above ( USB audio device) to a more convenient name “Wave Idea
Bitstream 3X”. This driver is optional and not required for the proper operation under Windows Xp.

Getting started with the Bitstream 3X

Connection to a computer

Connecting the Bitstream 3X to a computer can simply done 

via the USB port

. This port is capable of

transferring MIDI data to the Bitstream 3X, as well as powering the controller without requiring the
transformer that came with the machine.

The Bitstream 3X can also be connected to a computer 

via standard MIDI ports

, if the computer is

equipped with MIDI ports, the Bitstream should then be connected to these, being sure to connect the
input « MIDI In » on the Bitstream to the « MIDI Out » of the computer and vice-versa as with any other
MIDI gear.
In  this   case,  the  user   can  chose  to  connect  the  USB port   to  add  supplementary  MIDI   inputs   and
outputs, and to power the Bitstream via the same USB port.
The user can also decide to not connect the USB port, and in this case, the usage of the external
transformer is required. 

Note 1: The connection of the USB port powers the Bitstream 3X, in this case the connection of the
external electricity source is not required.

Note   2:   The   external   transformer   could   be   connected   at   the   same   time   as   the   USB   port   as   the
Bitstream 3X has an intelligent power supply system which allows it to accept the two sources at the
same time.
