WHAT IS ASIO?
ASIO is an acronym for Audio Streaming Input and
Output. The ASIO MOTU FireWire Audio driver
allows the Audio Express to provide multi-channel
audio input and output for any audio application
that supports ASIO drivers.
Attention: Other software users
The Audio Express ASIO driver also provides
multi-channel I/O with any ASIO-compatible
audio software. Cubase is used for the examples in
this chapter. However, the basic procedures are the
same and can be easily applied to any ASIO-
compatible software. Just follow the general
descriptions at the beginning of each main section
in this chapter. Consult your software
documentation for details about each topic, if
necessary.
If your audio software doesn’t support ASIO
If your host audio software does not support ASIO,
but instead supports WDM (or legacy Wave) audio
drivers, refer to the next chapter.
PREPARATION
To make sure that everything is ready for Cubase,
install Cubase first (if you haven’t already done so),
and then see these chapters before proceeding:
■ chapter 3, “IMPORTANT! Run the Audio
Express Software Installer First” (page 15)
■ “Installing the Audio Express Hardware” on
page 17.
RUN MOTU AUDIO CONSOLE
Before you run Cubase, launch MOTU Audio
Console to configure your Audio Express
hardware. MOTU Audio Console lets you
configure your audio interface, and it lets you
enable the desired inputs and outputs. Only
enabled inputs and outputs will be available to
Cubase, so this is an important step. For complete
details regarding MOTU Audio Console, see
chapter 5, “MOTU Audio Console” (page 27).
