Installation for Windows

Connecting your StudioLive ARc mixer to your computer is quick and easy. For Mac
users, just connect your mixer to a free USB connection on your computer and you're
ready to go. For Windows users, you must first install Universal Control. This will install
both the ASIO/WDM driver and the control panel for your StudioLive ARc-series
mixers. We made this installer as simple and easy to follow as possible, and it will take
you through each step of the installation process. Please read each message carefully
to ensure the StudioLive driver and the control panel are properly installed. In
particular, be careful not to connect your StudioLive mixer to the computer too soon.
Please visit www.presonus.com for the latest system requirements
and an updated list of compatible hardware. It is also recommend
that you check your recording software's system requirements.
Power User Tip: The speed of your processor, amount of RAM, and
capacity, size, and speed of your hard drives will greatly affect the overall
performance of your recording system. A faster processor and more RAM
can reduce signal latency (delay) and improve overall performance.
Before beginning the installation setup, please quit all applications, including
antivirus software, and disconnect the StudioLive mixer from your computer.
Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation. When the
installer has finished, it will prompt you to reboot your computer.
Click "Finish" to automatically restart your PC. Once your computer has
rebooted, connect the StudioLive. When the Found New Hardware wizard
launches, follow the "Recommended" steps.
Your StudioLive is now synced to your computer and ready to use!
