My rDAC/rWave is plugged into my PC, the USB indicator is selected and shows green (rDAC only), but I get no
audio. It is the default USB audio device, but I still get no sound (or sound through my laptop speakers) for my open
application.
Some operating systems such as Windows XP cannot switch between dierent audio outputs whilst an application (such as iTunes, Windows Media Player or a web
browser) is running. e solution is to connect and install the rDAC/rWave before starting any audio applications. If you have already started an audio application
before plugging in the rDAC/rWave, close and re-open the application.
It is advisable to plug in the rDAC/rWave before turning your computer on, so that it will be fully initialised before you start any of your applications.
I keep hearing operatinng system sounds through my hi-fi system when the rDAC/rWave is connected. I do not want to
hear sounds every time I get an email, click a link etc. How can I stop these?
Operating system sounds can be turned o using the settings controls for each particular operating system.
Windows XP:
Via the Control Panel, open Sounds and Audio Devices.
e second tab, Sounds, shows a drop-down box to select
the sound scheme. Select the sound scheme called “No
Sounds. Press the OK button to conrm.
MacOS X:
Via the Apple in the top-le corner of the screen, select System
Preferences. Under the Hardware section, select Sound. In the ‘Sound
Eects’ tab, click the tickbox labelled ‘Play user interface sound eects’ to
remove the tick. If you still hear unwanted sounds, drag the slider labelled
Alert volume’ all the way to the le.
Windows 7:
Via the Control Panel, open Sound. e third tab, Sounds,
shows a drop-down box to select the sound scheme. Select
the sound scheme called “No Sounds. Press the OK button
to conrm.
