Driver Installation and Settings

In order to use the V-Synth as a USB MIDI device from your computer, you must first install the USB MIDI driver. The USB MIDI driver is on the included “V-Synth Driver CD-ROM.”

What is the USB MIDI Driver?

The USB MIDI Driver is a software which passes data between the V-Synth and the application (sequencer software, etc.) that is running on the USB-connected computer.

The USB MIDI Driver sends data from the application to the V- Synth, and passes data from the V-Synth to the application.

In order to use USB in MIDI mode, you must install the driver from the included CD-ROM into your computer.

The correct driver and the installation procedure will depend on your system and on the other programs you are using. Be sure to read the Readme file on the CD-ROM before installation.
