This example shows the M Audio Delta 66 and Midiman WINMAN 4x4/S (another
product shown here only as an example) entries in the Windows Device Manager
device list. The Delta 66 is properly installed with no conflicts, as is the WINMAN
4x4/S. If you do not see your M Audio Delta 66 in your Device Manager in this
fashion, please jump ahead to the “Troubleshooting” section of this manual.

Verifying Delta Control Panel Installation, PC & Mac

In Windows, open the Windows Control Panel (do so via Start | Settings | Control
Panel ). If your Delta 66 hardware and Delta Control Panel software are properly
installed, the Windows Control Panel should display an “M Audio Delta H/W” icon.
By double-clicking on that icon, you may launch the Delta Control Panel software.
Also for convenience, you may create a shortcut on your desktop by dragging a copy
of the “M Audio Delta H/W” icon from the Control Panel to your Windows desktop
using your mouse or trackball. After completing the drag operation, a dialog box
will ask you if you wish to create a shortcut — click on ‘Yes’. Once the shortcut is
installed, all you have to do is double-click on the shortcut icon on your desktop to
launch the Delta Control Panel software.

On the Macintosh, the Delta Control Panel may be placed anywhere on your hard
drive, or any partition of your hard drive that you find convenient. Once the control
panel file has been dragged from the CD onto your hard drive, you may double click
it to launch the Delta Control Panel software. You may create a alias to the control
panel by highlighting it, then holding Apple key+M. This alias can then be placed
on your desktop.

NOTE: When using a music software program that is ASIO
capable, launch the Delta Control Panel software from within
that program. Some of the control panel functions will be
controlled from within that program, such as master clock
setting and sample rate, so it is desireable to launch the music
program first, and then the Delta Control Panel from the the
program’s “launch” or “control panel” button. Without the
music program open however, it is okay to open the Delta panel
from your desktop or other location.
