Getting Started with Windows XP
The following example is for setting up
the CO1U in Windows XP with Service
Pack 2. Other versions may vary slightly.
1. Plug in microphone. The LED will
light to indicate it is receiving USB
power. Windows will recog-
nize the USB audio device and
automatically install the universal
drivers (figure 1).
NOTE: This balloon will not appear
next time you plug it in, as the
microphone drivers are already
installed.
The CO1U is now recognized as a
Windows audio device under the
name Samson C01U. Each ad-
ditional CO1U will have a number
added, such as Samson C01U (2),
and so on. To set it as the default
device and change computer-con-
trolled gain, access control panel.
2. Access Sounds and Audio Devices
through Control Panel (figure 2).
3. Select Samson CO1U as Sound
recording Default device under
the Audio tab. The default device
is used in simple programs like
those for teleconferencing or
Sound Recorder. In most pro au-
dio programs you can select which
device (or multiple devices) to use
within the program itself. To set
computer-controlled gain, click
the Volume button (figure 3).
4. The Wave In window sets the com-
puter-controlled gain or mutes the
microphone. The gain is from -62
dB to +48 dB (figure 4).
