M-Audio MIDISPORT 4x4 [6/26] Getting started

IMPORTANT: The OMS MIDI driver is provided for use with Mac OS 9.2.2. You MUST

have a sequencer that supports OMS and have OMS properly installed in order to

use the MIDISPORT (this does not apply to Mac OS X).

Getting Started

Here is an outline of the steps needed to begin using your MIDISPORT on either a Mac

or a PC:

1. Install the MIDISPORT software (see "Software Installation"). Mac OS 9 users must first install

OMS (included on CD or available by download from our MIDISPORT "Drivers” page).

2. Attach the MIDISPORT to your computer (see "Hardware Installation").

3. Hook your keyboards and sound modules to the MIDISPORT (see "Setting Up Your

MIDI Studio").

4. Configure the MIDISPORT in your application software (see "Using the MIDISPORT in

your Application Software").

Software Installation

Your MIDISPORT comes with software that allows it to communicate with your specific

operating system and platform (PC or Mac). Please locate the operating system for

your computer in this section and follow the instructions. MIDISPORT’s “driver” software

will load during this installation.

Your MIDISPORT has a USB connector for a standard USB cable, which is supplied with

the unit. When you are asked to connect your MIDISPORT during the driver software

installation, simply plug the “device end” of the USB cable into your MIDISPORT and

plug the “computer end” of the cable into your computer’s USB port. The “computer

end” and “device end” can be easily identified by their size and shape.
