Set up the MIDI Device
The first time you launch the WaveWare application after installation you will be prompted
to select a MIDI device.
SOUNDBLASTER TYPE DRIVER (Most Common)
If you have a SoundBlaster or a SoundBlaster compatible sound card, you will be presented
with the following choices (or some variation):
MIDI Mapper
Microsoft synth
MIDI-OUT
SoundBlaster Connected to Speakers (Most Common)
If you are using your WaveRider with a SoundBlaster connected to a pair of speakers, choose
Microsoft synth or any other synth type device listed (but not MIDI-out or MIDI-mapper).
SoundBlaster (or MIDI card) Connected to External Synthesizer
If you are using an external synthesizer connected to your sound-card or MIDI-card you will
need to select either MIDI OUT or MIDI MAPPER.
This type of sound card allows you to send MIDI data to either
the internal synthesizer (in the
sound card) or to an external synthesizer, (but not both simultaneously).
MPU-401 TYPE DRIVER
If your sound card uses an MPU-401 type driver, it will send data to the internal synthesizer
and
to the MIDI outs simultaneously.
The preceding instructions assume that your sound-card is properly installed for Windows. If
your sound card is not properly installed, contact your sound card manufacturer to obtain the
appropriate drivers and advice.
