11.2 How to check if the AUDIO 8 DJ driver is installed correctly

11.2.1 How to check if the AUDIO 8 DJ driver is installed correctly in Windows
Open Start > All Programs > Native Instruments > Audio 8 DJ Driver.
There you will find the helper applications Audio Statistics, Control Panel and the Settings
Tool. Make sure that the device is connected to the computer and open the Control Panel.
If all the drop-down menus are grayed out (i.e., there are no presets in the preset drop-
down list, no sample rate values to choose from) there must be something wrong with the
connection. If the AUDIO 8 DJ Driver entry in the NATIVE INSTRUMENTS folder of the
Start Menu is missing, the driver is most probably not installed at all.
►
If the driver is not installed, you can install it using the setup program as described
in chapter .1 (Installation of the AUDIO 8 DJ).
►
If the driver is not recognized, check your USB 2.0 connection as described in chapter
11.3 (USB Troubleshooting).
As any other USB device, the driver installs exactly for one USB port. If you connect the
AUDIO 8 DJ to another port, a standard Windows dialog opens in which you can install
the driver to that port.
►
If you have previously installed the driver on your computer once, Windows will find
the right drivers itself.
►
If you didn't install the drivers on your computer, Windows will install the wrong drivers.
►
If you do not know whether or not you have previously installed the drivers of the
AUDIO 8 DJ to your computer, it is advisable, to start the setup program of the AUDIO
8 DJ. If the setup program states that it will first uninstall the drivers, you already have
installed the drivers on your computer. In this case you can connect the device to any
other USB port, and Windows will find the right driver when it installs the AUDIO 8
DJ on another USB port.
