Requirements
To use ReCycle for Windows you need the following:
• An Intel Pentium computer running at 66 MHz or faster.
• A 800x600, 256 color monitor or better.
• A CD-ROM drive.
• 16 MByte RAM or more.
• A Windows compatible, 16-bit audio card.
• Microsoft Windows 98 or NT 4.0 or later.
For communication with your specific sampler, you might also need:
• A Windows compatible MIDI Interface and cables, and/or...
• A 100% Windows compatible SCSI interface and cables.
Setting Up The Computer
Before proceeding, your computer should be set up and you should be reason-
ably familiar with its operation. You should also have the audio card installed and
working properly.

To check whether your audio card works properly, try playing back
audio with the Media Player application (included with Windows).
!
The quality of the sound during direct playback from ReCycle de-
pends fully on the audio card. If you have a not-so-good audio card,
this may mean that the sound quality during direct playback from
the computer isn’t immaculate. However, this does not reflect the fi-
nal audio in the sampler or in exported files, since this always main-
tains highest possible quality.
Depending on whether you plan to use a sampler, and the model of the sam-
pler(s), you may also need to install MIDI and/or SCSI interfaces. See page 17.
Turning on your system
1. If you have any peripherals connected to the computer or sampler,
always turn these on first.
2. If you are using a sampler with the operating system on a floppy
disk or hard disk, make sure the operating system is loaded before
you turn on your computer.
Finding your way on the
ReCycle CD-ROM
Once you have turned on your system, insert the ReCycle CD-ROM and open it.
At the root of the CD-ROM, you will find a file called “Read Me”. Double click
this to get information about what is what on the CD-ROM.
Installing the Acrobat
Reader
To be able to read the online documentation, you must have the Acrobat Reader
application installed. If this isn’t already installed on your computer, you need to
install it from the ReCycle CD-ROM:
1. Insert the ReCycle CD-ROM.
2. On the CD-ROM, open the folder “Acrobat Reader” and double click
on the application file “rsxxx.exe” (where “xxx” is the version of the
Acrobat Reader, e.g. “4.05”).
3. Follow the instructions in the dialogs that appear.
