Session Installation for Windows

4	Session with Fast Track USB User Guide

NOTE: If you have already connected your Fast Track USB audio interface to your computer, please disconnect it before beginning the Session software installation. Leave the Fast Track disconnected until instructed to connect it.

1.Insert the M-Audio Session DVD-ROM into your computer’s DVD-ROM drive.

2.The computer will automatically display the install screen. If your computer fails to launch the installer, manually start it by clicking on Start > My Computer > Session.

3.Follow the software installer’s on-screen direction prompts.

4.Session comes with a large library of loops and instrument samples for music creation, known as Session Content. During the installation process, you will be asked if you would like to install this content, as well as the Session Application, and the driver for the Fast Track USB audio interface. You must select the Session Application and the Fast Track USB options in order to use Session.

NOTE: Session’s Factory Content Library requires approximately 4 GB of disk space and may take as long as 30 minutes to install. This behavior is normal. If you do not have 4 GB of disk space available, you can choose not to install the Session Content, but you will then have to place the Session DVD in your DVD-ROM drive whenever you run Session. Accessing Session’s content via the DVD-ROM drive results in slightly slower computer performance, and if the required hard drive space is available, installing the Session Content on your computer’s hard drive is recommended.
