• Mac OS X users........................................................................ (p. 136)

Mac OS X users

1
With the GT-PRO disconnected, start up Mac OS.
Disconnect all USB cables except for a USB keyboard and USB mouse (if used).
2
Exit all currently running software (applications).
Also close any open windows. If you are using virus checking or similar software, be sure to
exit it as well.
3
Before connecting the USB cable, switch the GT-PRO's driver mode to "Standard."
For instructions on switching the GT-PRO's driver modes, refer to "Switching the Driver
Mode" (p. 88).
4
With the power switch turned OFF, use the USB cable to connect the GT-PRO to your
computer.
5
Make sure that the GT-PRO's OUTPUT MAIN and SUB knobs are set to the lowest setting,
then switch ON the POWER switch.
6
Open the System Preferences and click "Sound."

7
In the Sound Effects tab, set the Play alerts and sound effects through to "GT-PRO."
Now, return the GT-PRO's OUTPUT MAIN/SUB knob to the original position, then try
clicking on an alert in the list. If the sound of the alert comes from the GT-PRO when you do
so, it means that the GT-PRO is being recognized and that the driver has been installed
properly.

Once set this way, all sounds
from your Macintosh (including
audio alerts) will be output only
through the GT-PRO, not from
the speakers of your Macintosh.
