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.

In Special mode, the GS-10 cannot play back audio data from the Macintosh’s sound manager (such as audio CDs and alert sounds).

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.

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.

ASIO-compatible software		Driver to use

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).

fig.11-550

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.

The “Audio setting” dialog box will be named differently depending on your software. For details refer to the manual of your software.
