are merely exchanging one card for an identical one (such as during a

ECHODEL program.
System Sounds
There is one final step to perform before installing the Darla24 hardware.
We suggest that you turn off your Windows system sounds prior to
installing Darla24. Because most system sounds are sampled at very low
sample rates, typically 8 to 11 KHz, each time they are played it will cause
the sample rate clock on Darla24 to reset to the slower speed.
To turn off the system sounds, first go to the Windows
Control Panel
,
which can be found under
Settings
from the
Start
button. On the control
panel you will find an icon titled “
Sounds
”. After double clicking on this
icon, you will see a window labeled “
Schemes
” near the bottom of the
screen. Click on the small down arrow to the right of the combo-box and
select the “
No Sounds
” option. Then click on the Ok button.
