9.1 Troubleshooting
When installing the US-224 for the first time,
if you experience any unusual behavior,
here are some things to check:
Audio Drivers
In Control Panel / System / Device
Manager
(Win98SE/ME) or Control Panel
/ System / Hardware / Device Manager
(Win2000/XP), find the Audio control panel.
It's called Sound, Video And Game
Controllers in Win98SE, or Sound &
Multimedia in W98ME and Win2K. You
should see two entries for the US-224:
TASCAM US-224
US-224 WDM Interface
In Control Panel / Multimedia, select the
Audio tab.
Under Playback, US-224 Out should
appear in the drop down menu
Under Recording, US-224 A:B should
appear in the drop down menu
MIDI Drivers:
In Control Panel / Multimedia, select the
MIDI tab. When Single Instrument is
selected, you should see:
US-224 Port 1
US-224 Control
In Control Panel / Multimedia, select the
Devices tab. Under
Audio Devices, you
should see:
Audio for US-224
Under Midi Devices And Instruments you
should see:
MIDI for US-224.
Expand by clicking on the plus (+) sign and
you should see:
US-224 Port 1
US-224 Control
(Port 1 corresponds to the US-224's
physical MIDI I/O ports. US-224 Control is
the "virtual" USB MIDI port with which the
US-224 and its control surface communicate
with your application.)
