7. Software Installation
First fit the card (see 6. Hardware Installation), then switch on the computer and install the
drivers from the RME Driver CD. The driver files are located on the CD in the folder
'Hammerfall DSP'.
In case a newer driver version was downloaded from RME's website double-click the
'madsp_x.sit' archive to decompress it into separate files (using 'Aladin Stuffit Expander').
If you already installed an older version of the driver first make sure to remove all old files.
To do so open the 'Extensions' folder which is inside your 'System' folder. Remove the file
'Hammerfall DSP Driver'. Also remove 'Hammerfall DSP Settings' from the directory where it
was copied to. Remove the 'Hammerfall DSP ASIO' driver file from any 'ASIO Drivers' folder.
After unstuffing the archive the driver files are found in folders. The name of the folders tell
where to copy the files! The driver installation is done manually in
5
steps:
1.
Drag the file
Hammerfall DSP
Driver
from 'into System folder'
into the System folder. It will be
installed automatically into the
'Extension' folder. Confirm the
system's message to complete
the installation. Now the driver
file should be found in the
'Extension' folder, see example to
the right.
2.
Copy the files
Hammerfall DSP Settings
,
Hammerfall DSP ASIO
and
Hammerfall DSP
ASIO 96 kHz
from 'into ASIO Drivers folder' into all
'ASIO Drivers' folders found on your computer. As
every ASIO software has its own ASIO Drivers
folder, the files most propably have to be copied
several times.
Configuration of the Hammerfall DSP is done through the Settings dialog, which can be called
from within any ASIO compatible software (for example Audio/System/ASIO Control Panel). To
be able to call up the Settings dialog at any time we recommend to create an Alias on the
desktop. To create an Alias select 'Hammerfall DSP Settings' with the mouse cursor, press and
hold the Apple and Alt keys on your keyboard, and drag
Hammerfall DSP Settings
to the
desired location.
