Setting up Cubase with your Alesis Audio device
General Setup (for all devices)
1. Connect your USB device to a USB port on your computer. Some Alesis USB audio
devices have power cords, and some do not. If your device has a power cord, connect
to an electrical outlet, and turn on the device.
2. Launch the Cubase LE 4 application.
• Windows XP and Vista: Navigate to the Cubase LE 4 application by using the
Start menu at the bottom-left of your screen: select Start > Programs > Steinberg
Cubase LE 4 > Cubase LE 4.
• Macintosh: The Cubase LE 4 application is located in the “Applications” folder
on your Hard Disk. Double-click the program to open it.
3. Depending on your computer configuration, the first time you launch Cubase, you
may be presented with an error message indicating some problem with the sound
setup. By going through this setup guide, and properly setting up Cubase LE 4, any
such errors will be resolved. If an error is displayed at startup, click OK to continue.
4. Once Cubase LE 4 is completely started up, select the Devices menu from the top of
the screen and choose Device Setup.
5. In the window that opens, select VST Audio System from the left-hand side of the
screen.
6. The ASIO Driver field on the right-hand side is where you select the audio
input/output device that Cubase LE 4 will use. Below is a list of Alesis Audio
interfaces, and the correct ASIO Driver selection for each device for Windows and
Macintosh platforms. Make the appropriate ASIO Driver selection for your device.
