Setting Up Your System
Audio Hardware
Using the Built-In Audio Hardware of Macintosh Computers
All current Macintosh models provide at least built-in 16 bit stereo audio hardware.
For detailed information, refer to the documentation describing your computer.
Depending on your preferences and requirements, using the built-in audio hardware
may be sufficient for use with Sequel. It is always available for selection in Sequel –
you do not need to install any additional drivers.
About Drivers
A driver is a piece of software that allows a program to communicate with a certain
piece of hardware. In this case, the driver allows Sequel to use the audio hardware.
For audio hardware, there are different cases, requiring different driver configurations.
Specific ASIO Drivers
Professional audio cards often come with an ASIO driver written especially for the
card. This allows for communication directly between Sequel and the audio card. As a
result, audio cards with specific ASIO drivers can provide lower latency (input-output
delay). The ASIO driver may also provide special support for multiple inputs and
outputs, routing, synchronization, etc.
Audio card-specific ASIO drivers are provided by the card manufacturers. Be sure to
check the manufacturer’s web site for the latest driver versions.
DirectX Drivers (Windows only)
DirectX is a Microsoft package for handling various types of multimedia data under
Windows. Sequel supports DirectX, or to be more precise, DirectSound, which is a part
of DirectX used for playing back and recording audio. This requires two types of drivers:
- A DirectX driver for the audio card, allowing it to communicate with DirectX. If the
audio card supports DirectX, this driver should be supplied by the audio card
manufacturer. If it is not installed with the audio card, please check the
manufacturer’s web site for more information.
- The ASIO DirectX Full Duplex driver, allowing Sequel to communicate with
DirectX. This driver is included with Sequel, and does not require any special
installation.
Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver (Windows 7 only)
On Windows systems you can use the Generic Low Latency ASIO driver. This is a
generic ASIO driver that provides ASIO support for all audio cards supported by
Windows 7, thus allowing for low latency. The Generic Low Latency ASIO driver
provides the Windows Core Audio technology in Sequel.
Mac OS X Drivers (Mac only)
If you are using a Macintosh computer, make sure that you are using the latest Mac
OS X drivers for your audio hardware. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to install
the driver.
!
If your audio hardware comes with a specific ASIO driver we strongly recommend that
you use this.
Ö
This driver should be used if no specific ASIO driver is available. Although the Generic
Low Latency ASIO driver supports all audio devices, you might get better results with
on-board audio cards than with external USB audio interfaces.
