NOTE: To use the Audiophile USB on Mac OS 9, you must also install
Opcode’s OMS. This should be done BEFORE running the Audiophile
USB’s Installer program. By installing OMS first, the Installer program will then be able to place the OMS driver in the proper folder. Then, after running the Installer, you will need to configure OMS. See the section, “OMS Configuration,” for more information on installing and configuring OMS.
1. Insert the Drivers CD into your CD ROM drive. Locate and open the
Audiophile USB folder. Open the folder for your current Macintosh OS,
and double click on the Installer program in that folder.
* TIP – visit www.midiman.com and look for the latest available drivers. Drivers are frequently updated, so your CD may not always have the latest.
2. As the Installer loads the Audiophile USB drivers, you will be asked if
you wish to place a shortcut to the Audiophile USB Control Panel on
your desktop.This is your choice, but it’s probably a good idea to choose
this option.You can always trash the shortcut if you find it unnecessary.
3. After you run the Installer, you may switch “On” your Audiophile USB.
Your Audiophile USB is now ready for action.<\/p>\n
– OMS Configuration –
To configure the Audiophile USB for MIDI on Mac OS 9.x, you will need to
have Opcode’s OMS (Open Music System) installed first. OMS is a “MIDI
Manager” program, and it is necessary to install this in order to run all OS
9 music programs that have a MIDI engine, i.e., programs that use MIDI.
You need to install OMS before you run the Audiophile USB’s driver
Installer program. OMS is provided on the Drivers CD that came with the
unit, and is located in the “OS 9” folder, or it can be downloaded from the
M-Audio Website’s “Drivers” page. Opening the OMS 2.3.8 folder and
double-clicking on the “Install OMS 2.3.8” program will install OMS in your
system. Restart your computer, and continue with the driver installation
(see previous section).
To configure your Audiophile USB MIDI in OMS, go to the Control Panel
or Chooser under the Apple Menu, and make sure AppleTalk is turned off (this is recommended, although OMS will sense that it is on and prompt
you to turn it off). If you are configuring OMS for the first time, follow
these instructions to configure OMS.
1. In the Opcode folder, which you will find on your hard drive, locate the
OMS Applications folder,”then OMS Setup.” Double-click on OMS Setup.
2. OMS will inform you that it has not yet been configured. Click OK.
3. The “Create a New Studio Setup” dialog box now appears. Click OK.
4. The “OMS Driver Search” dialog asks you to choose the port on which
you’ve attached the Audiophile USB MIDI (either Modem or Printer).
DO NOT choose a port, just click “Search.” OMS begins Searching.
5. “OMS Driver Setup” shows the “Audiophile USB” MIDI in a list when
OMS successfully finds the driver. Click OK. OMS will now define
(shows “Identifying”) the Audiophile USB output port. The “OMS MIDI
Device Setup” dialog box will appear showing the Audiophile’s output
port with a check box to the left of the port, indicating that the port
is enabled. Now click on OK.
6. Next, the “My Studio Setup” appears with a “file save” dialog box over
it. You will now need to save your new Studio Setup before you can
assign an instrument to the Audiophile’s MIDI output and input. Assign
your instrument and you are done. You may now exit OMS Setup by
quitting the application.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"storecat":[],"itemids":[19163],"manufacturers":[33513],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n
