3 Using the Hilo/TB
With the LT-TB correctly installed in your computer, you can begin to use the Hilo with most popular third-party audio
applications. In this section we will explore setting up the Hilo/TB system for different contexts of use.
3.1 Hilo Driver Devices – Windows Operating Systems
Hilo was designed to provide maximum compatibility with the most popular audio and multimedia applications that
use the Windows MME, DirectSound, ASIO and OS X Core Audio driver standards. It is crucial that the applications
are set up correctly for optimal operation.
The Windows drivers for the LT-TB support two dominant driver models, WDM (which include both MME and
DirectSound) and ASIO.
WDM was developed by Microsoft and is used most typically by media playback applications, such as Windows
Media Player, iTunes, Quicktime Player, WinDVD, PowerDVD, etc.
ASIO was developed by Steinberg, and was designed to address the low-latency and high channel count needs of Pro
Audio and Music Production. ASIO is an option for Audio Production applications such as Pro Tools, Cubase/Nuendo,
Sonar, Samplitude/Sequoia, Audition, etc. These applications may also support MME or DirectSound, but when the
option exists, we recommend using ASIO for the best performance.
3.1.1 WDM/Multimedia Applications
Hilo can be used as a playback device for most popular multimedia, home theater and consumer audio applications.
Some such applications allow selection of specific playback devices. In these cases, 8 Hilo stereo play devices will be
available to choose from. These devices are labeled as TBT Play 1&2; TBT Play 3&4; TBT Play 5&6; TBT Play 7&8;
TBT Play 9&10; TBT Play 11&12; TBT Play 13&14; TBT Play 15&16. It is generally advisable to choose TBT Play
1&2 with any WDM program. This will insure that audio streams to every analog and digital output on Hilo. If you
wish to mute a stream to a particular output, you can do that from the Output Mix Routing Page, as described in section
3.4.8 Output Mix Routing Page.
When output device selection is not an option, it can be assumed that the application uses the Windows default audio
device. In this case, “Lynx TBT Play 1&2” should be established as the system playback default:
With Windows Windows 7 / Windows 8 navigate to:
Start > Control Panel > Sound > Playback. Right-Click on “(Speakers) LT-TB” and choose “Set as default
device”.
