specific driver (because there can be more than one in an advanced

system) for use with the application. Select the driver named “DMAN

Audio Device Driver” as your audio driver. The manner in which this

selection is made is dependent on the application (each one is a little

different).

Problem: A 3rd party Windows MIDI program does not play or record

MIDI to/DMAN.

Possible Cause 1: You have not installed an optional wavetable

synthesizer daughterboard, or you do not have a MIDI keyboard or

sound module attached to the MIDI interface adapter cable.

Possible Cause 2: The DMAN MIDI driver is not properly installed.

Install/reinstall all DMAN audio drivers (see Windows 95 Software

section).

Possible Cause 3: You have not selected the DMAN MIDI driver from

your application. Many 3rd party applications require you to select a

specific MIDI driver (because there can be more than one in an advanced

system) for use with the application. Select the driver named “Midiman

DMAN MPU401 ” as your MIDI driver. The manner in which this

selection is made is dependent on the application (each one is a little

different).

Problem: I’m getting some pops and clicks in my audio recording

Possible Solution: Many accelerated graphics cards use enough system

resources that the recording buffer can’t keep up with demand. This can

cause clicks in the recording. This is a software level problem, but can

often be solved by turning off the graphics acceleration features of the

graphics card. In Windows 95, this is accessed from Settings/Control

Panel/System/Performance/Graphics (see figures below).
