8 MIDI Master USB (English)
Windows XP installation
The first time you switch the keyboard on, Windows displays a message indicating that the
hardware wizard has detected a newly connected USB audio device. Windows automatically
installs a standard Windows driver for the device. This driver lets you use the keyboard right
away. We recommend, however, using the special MIDIMASTER USB driver that we have pro-
vided on the product CD. This driver offers better support, for example when installing
MIDI/USB audio devices later, and furthermore, our driver displays the drivers (TerraTec MIDI
MASTER USB) and keyboard devices (MK-249 USB MIDI IN/OUT) correctly in the integrated
software application.
For a new installation, follow these steps:
· Open the Windows Device Manager (Start / Settings / Control Panel / System / Hardware
/ Device Manager) and click the “+” symbol next to “Sound, video and game controllers”.
· Double-click the “USB Audio Device” element and check whether the driver is assigned to
the MIDIMASTER USB Keyboard (MK-249 USB MIDI Keyboard).
· Select the “Driver” index and then click “Update Driver”. This opens the Hardware Update
Wizard.
· Select “Install from a list or specific location” and confirm by clicking “Next”.
· On the next screen, select “Don't search. I will choose the driver to install” and again click
“Next”.
· Click “Have Disk” and enter the path for the driver as <CD>:\DRIVER\PC\TERRATECUSBB. If
you like, you can use the “Browse” function to locate the driver.
· On the next screen, select the corresponding “TerraTec MIDI MASTER” element and then
click “Next”.
· When you see the message “…Software has not passed Windows XP Logo testing…”, click
the “Continue Anyway” option.
· The hardware wizard now tells you that it has completed installing the software for this
device. Close the wizard by clicking “Finish”.
· The hardware wizard now informs you that it has found another, unknown hardware com-
ponent. Again select “Don't search. I will choose the driver to install” and then click
“Next”.
· Select “Search for the best driver in these locations” and “Include this location in the
search”. Here, enter again the path to the driver on the CD:
<CD>:\DRIVER\PC\TERRATECUSBB and confirm by clicking “Next”.
· After the second driver has been successfully installed, click “Finish”.
Afterwards, the MIDIMASTER USB Keyboard will be available.
