Installation for Windows

After you insert the Installation CD into your CD-ROM drive,
the StudioLive installer will take you through each step of the
installation process. Please read each message carefully—ensuring
especially that you do not connect your StudioLive too soon.
We made the StudioLive installer as simple and easy to follow as possible. Please
read each message carefully to ensure the StudioLive driver is properly installed.
Before beginning the StudioLive installation setup, please close
all applications, including antivirus software, and disconnect the
StudioLive from your computer. After the installation is successfully
completed, don't forget to reenable your antivirus protection!
