Installing & Setting Up the Driver (Macintosh)
Installing the ASIO driver
You must install the MIDI driver even if you will be using only audio on the GS-10.
* Be sure to install the MIDI driver before you install the ASIO driver.
This section explains how to install the ASIO driver that allows the GS-10 to be used by your
sequencer software or audio editing software.
The ASIO driver of the GS-10 supports the following audio input/output channels.
• Audio input 24/16 bit 1 stereo ch. (2 mono chs.)
• Audio output 24/16 bit 1 stereo ch. (2 mono chs.)
Here we will explain how to install the ASIO 1.0 16 bit-compatible driver.
1.

From the Driver E (Mac OS 9/8) –ASIO folder of the CD-ROM, copy [GS-10

ASIO1.0 16bit] to the [ASIO Drivers] folder within the ASIO Drivers folder of the

ASIO-compatible software you are using (e.g., Cubase VST, Logic Audio, Digital

Performer, Metro, or SPARK LE).

2.

Start up your ASIO-compatible software (e.g., Cubase VST, Logic Audio, Digital

Performer, Metro, or SPARK LE).

3.

Open the Audio setting dialog box of your ASIO-compatible software, and select

[GS-10 ASIO 16bit] as the ASIO Device.

ASIO (Steinberg Audio Stream
In/Out Interface) This is an
audio interface standard
promoted by the Steinberg
Corporation. When the GS-10
is used with ASIO-compatible
software, the synchronization
precision will be improved,
allowing a more sophisticated
music production
environment.
In Special mode, the GS-10 cannot play back audio data from the Macintosh’s sound manager
(such as audio CDs and alert sounds).
If your ASIO-compatible software supports ASIO 2.0 or recording/playback of 24 bit audio data,
using the following drivers will provide a higher quality environment.
