Setting up your system
Bring up the control panel for the audio hardware and ad-
just the settings as recommended by the audio hardware
manufacturer.
Under Windows, you open the control panel by clicking
the “Setup…” button.
The control panel that appears when you click this button is provided by
the audio hardware manufacturer and not Sequel (unless you use Di-
rectX, see below). Hence it will be different for each audio card brand
and model.
The Control panel for the ASIO DirectX driver is an exception, as it is
provided by Steinberg, and is described in the dialog help, opened by
clicking the Help button in the dialog. See also the notes below.
Under Mac OS X, you will find the control panel for your
audio hardware in the System Preferences (“Other” sec-
tion), opened from the Apple menu or from the Dock.
If you are using the built-in audio hardware of the Macintosh, you use the
“Sound” control panel in the System Preferences to set levels, balance,
etc. If you are using ASIO audio hardware, you can click the Control
Panel button to bring up its panel.
4. Click Apply and OK to close the dialog.
If you are using audio hardware with a DirectX driver
(Windows only)
Sequel comes with a driver called “ASIO DirectX Full Du-
plex Driver” available for selection on the Audio Connec-
tion pop-up menu in the Program Settings page.
Ö To be able to take full advantage of DirectX Full Du-
plex, the audio hardware must support WDM (Windows
Driver Model) in combination with DirectX version 8.1 or
higher.
In all other cases, the audio inputs will be emulated by DirectX (see the
dialog help for the ASIO DirectX Full Duplex Setup dialog for details
about how this is reported).
Ö During the installation of Sequel, the latest DirectX
driver will be installed on your computer.
When ASIO DirectX Full Duplex Driver is selected on the
Audio Connections pop-up menu, you can click “Setup...”
to open the ASIO Direct Sound Full Duplex Setup control
panel and adjust the following settings:
Direct Sound Output and Input Ports
In the list to the left in the window, all available Direct Sound output and
input ports are listed. In many cases, there will be only one port in each
list. To activate or deactivate a port in the list, click the checkbox in the
left column. If the checkbox is ticked, the port is activated.
You can edit the Buffer Size and Offset settings in this
list if necessary, by double-clicking on the value and typ-
ing in a new value.
In most cases, the default settings will work fine. Audio buffers are used
when audio data is transferred between Sequel and the audio card.
While larger buffers ensure that playback will occur without glitches, the
latency (the time between the moment Sequel sends out the data and
when it actually reaches the output) will be higher.
Offset
If a constant offset is audible during playback of Audio and MIDI record-
ings, you can adjust the output or input latency time using this value.
Setting up the input and output ports
Setting the inputs and outputs primarily depends on the
configuration settings of your audio card. You can check
the configuration by clicking on “Setup...” on the Program
Settings page.
If you have a stereo in/out audio card this will most likely
be set up automatically.
Inputs
Setting the recording input for Sequel is discussed in
“Adding an audio track” on page 13.
Outputs
Audio outputs can be selected in the Program Settings
page from the Output Selector pop-up.
About monitoring
In Sequel, monitoring means listening to the input signal
while preparing to record or while recording. Sequel al-
ways monitors the signal in real-time.
The audio passes from the input into Sequel, possibly
through Sequel effects and EQ and then back to the out-
put. You control monitoring via settings in Sequel. This al-
lows you to control the monitoring level from Sequel and
add effects to the monitored signal only.
!
If your Windows audio hardware doesn’t have a spe-
cific ASIO driver, a DirectX driver is the next best op-
tion.
