Setting up the US-122 in OMS.
These instructions should be used when using the US-122 with Mac OS 9.2.2 or lower. OMS is not used (or needed) in Mac OSX.
Cubasis, ProTools and several other
applications rely on OMS for MIDI
implementation. OMS (Open Music System)
is a standard for MIDI management
on the Macintosh. Since the US-122 can
send and receive MIDI, you will need to
install OMS in order to use the US-122.
The exception is Digital Performer,
which utilizes FreeMIDI. The drivers
support OMS and FreeMIDI independently.
To set up OMS to work with the
US-122:
1. First, run the OMS installer. If you
do not have the current version of
OMS, it may be freely downloaded
at www.opcode.com.
2. Locate the US-122 Drivers folder,
which was placed on your desktop
when you ran the US-122 installer.
In this folder, locate the US-122 OMS driver.
Drag the US-122
OMS driver into the OMS folder
inside your System folder. Do not
drag this file into the Opcode
folder on your hard drive – it will
not work correctly.
3. Restart your computer. Then connect
the US-122 and start the OMS
Setup application (located in the
Opcode folder on your hard drive).
4. Select New Studio Setup from the
File menu. When prompted to
select a serial (modem or printer)
port, leave both selections
unchecked. Click Yes and continue.
OMS will assess all the MIDI ports
attached to your computer and
build OMS instruments for the
ones it recognizes.
5. When the setup is complete you
should see a list of all your connected MIDI ports. At the least you
should see two icons pertaining to
the US-122 specifically: the US-122
icon, and the US-122 MIDI port.
Once OMS setup is successfully completed,
you can proceed with setting up
the US-122 with your chosen application.
Please refer to the specific documentation
for your application for more
details.

Otherwise, an invoice that meets the minimum purchase amount and contains at least one qualifying manufacturer product is eligible for promotional financing. No interest will be charged on promo purchase balance, and equal monthly payments are required on promo purchase until it is paid in full. The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
