Installing the dedicated software

To use this unit as a USB audio interface with a Windows com-
puter, dedicated software must be installed on the computer.
Download the latest software from the product page on the
TEAC Global Site (http://teac-global.com/).
Installing the dedicated software will install a driver and a Set-
tings Panel application.
ATTENTION
Before starting to install software, quit other applications.
NOTE
With a Mac, the standard OS driver will be used, so instal-
lation of dedicated software is not strictly necessary. We
recommend installing this software, however, because it has
a notification function about updates for the unit firmware
and software.
Installing the Windows dedicated soft-
ware
Follow the procedures below to install the Windows dedicated
software.
ATTENTION
i Complete installation of the Windows dedicated software on
the computer before connecting the unit to it with the USB
cable.
i If you connected the unit to the computer using the USB ca-
ble before installing the Windows dedicated software and the
"Found New Hardware Wizard" launched, close the Wizard
and disconnect the USB cable.

TEAC Global Site (http://teac-global.com/) and save it on

desktop or another location.
3.
Double-click the "TASCAM_Model_Mixer_Installer_x.xx.exe"

ATTENTION
If you open a zip file without decompressing it and dou-
ble-click the "TASCAM_Model_Mixer_Installer_x.xx.exe" file
in the folder that opens, installation will not start. Right-click

after a while, open the software installation screen from the
notification area at the bottom right of the computer dis-
play, and click "Skip obtaining driver software from Windows
Update" to stop the search.
