Note!
Even if you're a seasoned pro, you should still at least skim the The software. chapter starting
on page 25. The information on drivers and the first sections on the ControlPanel are impor-
tant for your overall understanding of the system. Thank you.
Short and to the point for busy pros.
The SoundSystem Aureon 7.1 Universe is a PCI card that supports Busmastering. Please
choose a slot that is as far away from the graphics card(s) and SCSI/RAID controllers as pos-
sible—usually as close to the “bottom” as possible in most installations. Also be sure to
leave room for up to six audio cables that can be connected to the card.
The front module is connected to the card using the included flat conductor cable. This cable
also supplies the front module with power. If possible, please install the module in a bay
below the CD, ZIP drive or other devices due to the dangling cables.
The driver installation under Windows (2000 and XP) follows the Microsoft guidelines. The
drivers can be found on the included CD-ROM.
It is necessary to install the ControlPanel after installing the driver. The full functionality of the
SoundSystem cannot be controlled using the Windows Mixer.
The WDM audio drivers can be selected in the applications as usual. ASIO drivers are avail-
able in compatible programs; WDM kernel streaming is “not visible” (i.e. it is always available
for applications and cannot be selected explicitly). The respective buffer sizes can be config-
ured in the Aureon ControlPanel (not to be confused with the Windows Control Panel).
So much for the summary. The following is a detailed, illustrated description of the installa-
tion.
