Driver (Macintosh)

■ Installing the driver

Use either OMS or FreeMIDI as the MIDI driver.

The included DR-880 driver is an add-on module for using the DR-880 with

OMS or FreeMIDI.

* Either OMS or FreeMIDI must be installed in your Macintosh, as appropriate for

the sequencer software you are using.

* Disconnect the DR-880 from the Macintosh before you perform the installation.

Use the following procedure to install the DR-880 driver.

Exit all currently running software (applications).

If you are using a virus checker or similar software, be sure to exit this as well.

Prepare the CD-ROM.

Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

The installation procedure will differ depending on your system.

Please proceed to one of the following sections, depending on the system you use.

OMS can be found in the

the OMS folder of the

CD-ROM. If you would

like to know more about

OMS, refer to

which can be found in the

same folder.

If a DR-880 is already connected to your Macintosh when you install the driver, a message like the

following will appear when the Macintosh is started up. Perform the steps described below as
