WDM AND WAVE DRIVER COMPATIBILITY
WDM is an acronym for Windows Driver Model.
The MOTU WDM Driver allows the
UltraLite-mk3 to provide multi-channel audio
input and output for any audio application that
supports WDM audio drivers.
Attention: Cakewalk users
Cakewalk SONAR is used for the WDM driver
setup examples in this chapter.
Attention: other software users
SONAR is used for the WDM driver setup
examples in this chapter. However, the basic
procedures are the same and can be easily applied
to any WDM-compatible software. Consult your
software documentation for details, if necessary.
INSTALLING THE MOTU AUDIO WDM
DRIVER
The MOTU Audio Installer CD installs the MOTU
WDM driver into Windows for you. Thats pretty
much all the preparation you need. See chapter 3,
“IMPORTANT! Run the UltraLite-mk3 Software
Installer First (page 15).
ENABLING WAVE (MME) COMPATIBILITY
If your host audio software does not support
Windows WDM drivers, enable Wave driver
compatibility in the MOTU WDM Driver so that
all of the UltraLite-mk3’s inputs and outputs show
up in your software. For details, see “Wave support
for legacy (MME) software on page 32.
If your host audio software does support
WDM audio drivers, dont enable Wave driver
compatibility.
WaveRT SUPPORT
The UltraLite-mk3 Windows driver also supports
WaveRT, a low-latency audio driver standard
developed by Microsoft. WaveRT is supported by
Sonar 8 and later, under Windows 7 and Vista. To
enable WaveRT, check the Use WaveRT for Windows
Audio option in MOTU Audio Setup.
Figure 8-1: The WaveRT option can be enabled in the MOTU Audio
Setup console.
