Frequently asked installation questions and
answers (FAQ)
Windows driver installation
Q: When I connect the unit to a computer, the Windows
“Hardware Wizard” appears and I cannot install the
driver. Am I making a mistake in the installation
procedures?
A: Close the Windows “Hardware Wizard” and disconnect
the unit. You must install the driver before connecting
this unit. Insert the CD-ROM included with the product.
The menu for installing the driver appears automatically.
Select “Install Driver,” and follow the instructions
shown on the screen. If you have downloaded the driver
from the TASCAM website (htt://www.tascam.com),
expand the ZIP archive, launch the “setup.exe” file, and
follow the instructions on the screen.
Q: I loaded the installation CD-ROM into a Windows
computer, but the driver installation menu does not
appear. How can I access this menu?
A: The automatic playback settings for the disc drive might
be disabled.
Open the CD-ROM using Windows Explorer, and
double-click the “Autorun2.exe” file to manually open
the installation menu.
Settings on your computer
Here are a few basic points to help you set up your
computer for best performance with audio applications.
Do not run other applications. You will probably use
•
your computer for applications other than audio, but we
recommend that you avoid running other applications
at the same time you are running audio programs.
Processing digital audio places a considerable load on
your computer.
This means that if you are running other applications
(especially graphics or Internet tools) at the same time as
your audio application, the processing may not happen
fast enough.
