• Sequel LE
Start "Sequel LE 2", click the "Program Settings Page" icon in the lower left of the screen and
then "Audio Connection". Then select "Yamaha Steinberg USB ASIO". A dialog box will appear
with the message "Do you want to switch the ASIO driver?" Click "Switch".
ASIO is an acronym of "Audio Stream Input/Output" architecture. To put it simply, this is
the key factor to make creating music on computers more enjoyable, because this driver
enables very fast communication of audio data between the computer and the software.
ASIO technology was also proposed and developed by Steinberg, and is very popular
standard among countless audio manufacturers worldwide.

Use WaveLab LE 7 to capture the music on a record
Let's try to capture the music on an analog record! By the way, the output signal generated by a
record player is incredibly small. Therefore, if you connect the output of a record player directly to
the CI1, the music that you record may not have a suitable volume level. Use a phono preamp to
amplify this signal. In some stereo combo systems, the phono preamp is built-in to the amplifier.
There are also record players with built-in phono preamps. You can also purchase a stand-
alone phono preamp. Read your record player's instruction manual carefully before preparing and
connecting the phono preamp to the player.
How to connect a record player to the CI1

In the example to follow, we use an amplifier that has a built-in phono preamp and connect that
amplifier's line-out to the CI1.
Note: The output jacks of each device are RCA
jacks, so you have to use adapter cables as
described on page 8.
