Wave Devices (Windows 95)

Korg 1212 I/O 43

English

However, the Windows 95 multimedia system keeps track of each audio

device simply by a number, generated by the order in which they were

initialized. It is this number that is stored in a digital audio program’s input

and output assignments.

You can check the device order by looking at the audio “preferred device”

menus in the Multimedia Properties control panel. In these menus, the

devices are shown in order (although no actual numbers are displayed).

If you install or remove other soundcards, this may change the device

numbers assigned to the 1212 I/O. This, in turn, can change the track

output assignments of previously recorded ﬁles. If so, you’ll need to re-

select the desired outputs, and save the updated ﬁle.

As mentioned previously, the 1212 I/O appears to the Windows 95

multimedia system as six stereo audio devices–one for each stereo pair. The

devices appear in the following order: ADAT 1/2, ADAT 3/4, ADAT 5/6,

ADAT 7/8, Analog L/R, and S/PDIF L/R.

Setting the default playback or recording device

Some programs will automatically use only the default recording and

playback devices, as set in the Multimedia Properties control panel. To

select the 1212 I/O as the default device:

1. Open the Multimedia Properties control panel.

2. Select the desired 1212 I/O channels as the preferred device under

both Playback and Recording.

3. Set the Preferred Quality to CD Quality.

This will set the audio device to stereo, 16 bit, 44.1kHz sample rate. You can

use the Customize button to select other sample rates and bit depths, if

desired; the 44.1, 22.05, and 11.025kHz sample rates are valid for the

1212 I/O.

Note also that the volume controls in the Multimedia Properties control

panel are disabled when the 1212 I/O is selected. The 1212 I/O’s output

volumes may be adjusted using the 1212 I/O Wave Device Control, if

desired.
