Wave Devices (Windows 95)
Using the Korg 1212 I/O as multiple wave devices
Through the 1212 I/O’s standard wave device driver, the card can be used
by almost any Windows digital audio program. The 1212 I/O appears as
six full-duplex stereo cards, one for each output pair. Programs which
support the use of multiple cards have simultaneous access to all 12 audio
inputs and outputs, up to the limits of the program itself. You can even
install multiple 1212 I/O cards, and use them simultaneously!
The 1212 I/O’s wave device functionality is controlled by two programs:
the 1212 I/O Utility, and the 1212 I/O Wave Device Control.
The 1212 I/O Utility allows you to set the card’s sample rate, word clock
source, and monitor routing, as well as the analog input trim. The 1212 I/O
Wave Device Control allows you to synchronize playback and recording
between the six input and output pairs, and, optionally, to adjust output
volume and balance.
To set up the 1212 I/O for use as a wave device:
1. In the 1212 I/O Utility, select the desired sample rate and word clock
source.
2. Also in the 1212 I/O Utility, set up input-to-output monitoring as
desired, using the channel routing and volume controls.
For more information, see the chapter “1212 I/O Utility,” beginning on
page 23.
3. Optional: to use the 1212 I/O as the default input and/or output
wave device, use the Multimedia Properties control panel.
For more information, see “Setting the default playback or recording
device,” on page 43.
4. Open the 1212 I/O Wave Device Control Panel.
5. Enable the Auto Sync check-box (under Sync Settings).
This will ensure that all of the input and output pairs are synchronized. For
more information, see “Sync Settings” on page 45.
In some special cases, you may wish to disable Auto Sync; for more
information, see “Custom Synchronization” on page 47.
Wave device numbering
When selecting 1212 I/O inputs and outputs in digital audio software, each
stereo pair is identified by name, PCI bus, and PCI device number - such as
ADAT 3-4, Bus 0, Device 11.
