Installing the drivers
In order to use the US-144, you must install
the appropriate drivers into your computer.
As described below, this is an easy process
using the CD-ROM included with the
US-144.
Drivers are updated from time to time. You
can download the most recent version of
the drivers from the TASCAM website
<http://www.tascam.com/>.
Do not connect the US-144 to your comput-
er before you have installed the drivers.
CAUTION
Handle the enclosed CD-ROM with care.
If the disc becomes scratched or dirty,
your computer may be unable to read it
and the software cannot be installed. If
the disc becomes unreadable, a fee will
be charged for its replacement.
WARNING
Never attempt to play the enclosed
CD-ROM in a conventional audio CD
player, as the resulting noise may dam-
age your speakers or your hearing.
