The Studio 4 Package; Registering Your Studio 4 - OPCODE STUDIO 4 Instruction

PART 1: Overview and Installation
you're new to either of these standards,
you should read magazines specializing in
music technology, or purchase introduc-
tory MIDI and SMPTE books from your
local bookstore or music dealer.
Also, you should be familiar with basic
Macintosh operations. If you're not,
please read the Macintosh manual before
using the Studio 4.
This manual discusses how to connect,
set up and use the Studio 4—it describes
Studio 4 operations at the time of its print-
ing. However, updates and changes may
occur. Always look for hardware and soft-
ware change information in the Read Me
folder on your master program disk.
The Studio 4 uses the Opcode MIDI
System (OMS) and the Studio 4 OMS
driver software to control all mapping,
channelizing, routing and timecode func-
tions. If you're already familiar with OMS,
you can read this manual straight
through.
NOTE: If you have never used OMS, read
the first three chapters in this manual, then
read the OMS manual before installing
OMS and reading Chapter 4. Pay particu-
lar attention to the OMS manual's
discussions of installation, defining devices
in your studio and creating a current OMS
Studio Setup document.
This manual is divided into three parts:
• Part 1: Overview and Installation
(Chapters 1-4)—This part discusses
the Studio 4's front and rear panels
and will help you to integrate the unit
into your studio. It concludes with a
4
chapter describing software installa-
tion and setup.
• Part 2: Using The Studio 4
(Chapters 5-10)—This part explains
how to set the Studio 4 internal state
and use its SMPTE features.
• Part 3: Appendices
This part includes a troubleshooting
section, details on networking the
Studio 4 with a standard MIDI inter-
face, and the Studio 4 specifications.
