OPTIMOD-PC SOFTWARE SUMMARY
will load the same processing preset that was active on the OPTIMOD-PC card when
the computer shut down. If the service does not start up for some reason, then this
power-down processing preset will not be restored and the general-purpose preset
(loaded by the driver) will run instead.
The service is also responsible for verifying that the DSP code version running on the
card is the same as the DSP code with which the service was compiled. If it is not, the
service will load the more recent DSP code. Additionally, the service is an intermedi-
ary that allows the OPTIMOD-PC Control Application to talk to an OPTIMOD-PC card,
whether local or on the network.
OPTIMOD-PC will continue to pass audio through its hardware inputs and outputs
even if the OPTIMOD-PC driver and service stop running.
