Settings when using the OCTA-CAPTURE in Windows Media Player
Here’s how to specify the OCTA-CAPTURE as the system default playback device so that it can be
used with Windows Media Player.
* In “Verifying That You Hear Sound” (p . 27), you’ll use Windows Media Player to play back sample
data . Be sure to make the settings described below .
1. Open the “Control Panel,” click [Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices], and then click the
[Sounds and Audio Devices] .
* If you’re using the Classic view, double-click the [Sounds and Audio Devices icon] .
2. Click the Audio tab to open it, and in the Sound playback area, select [1-2 (OCTA-
CAPTURE)] . In the MIDI Music Playback area, select [MIDI (OCTA-CAPTURE)] .
3. Click [OK] to complete the setting .
* If you select the OCTA-CAPTURE as the default playback device, audio alerts and other sounds
from Windows will also be output from the OCTA-CAPTURE, and therefore will not be heard from
your computer’s speakers .
Caution when recording or playing back with your software
Check the following points before you use the OCTA-CAPTURE to record or play back.
• Connect the OCTA-CAPTURE to your computer before you start up the software you’re
using.
• Do not switch off the OCTA-CAPTURE’s power or disconnect the USB cable from your
computer while your software is running. Close the software you’re using before you
disconnect the OCTA-CAPTURE’s USB cable from your computer.
This completes driver installation and settings.
Next, verify that you hear sound from the OCTA-CAPTURE. -> “Verifying That You Hear Sound” (p. 27)
