Installing the M-Audio Session Software
(Windows only)
Please Note: Do not connect your Micro audio interface to your computer until
the Session software has been installed. Leave your Micro disconnected until
instructed to connect it.
1. Insert the M-Audio Session
DVD-ROM into your
computer’s DVD-ROM drive.
2. The computer will automatically
display the install screen
1
. If
your computer does not launch
the installer, manually start
it by clicking on Start > My
Computer
‡
and then double-
clicking Session.
3. Follow the software installer’s
on-screen direction prompts.
4. Session comes with a large
library of loops and instrument
samples for music creation,
known as Session Content.
This content requires
approximately 4 GB of disk
space and may take as long
as 30 minutes to install. This
behavior is normal. During the
installation process, you will
be asked if you would like to
install this content, as well as
the Session Application, and
the driver for the Micro audio
interface
2
. The M-Audio Micro driver is required in order to use the Micro
audio interface.
If you do not have 4 GB of disk space available, you may choose not to install
the Session Content, but you will then have to place the Session DVD in your
DVD-ROM drive whenever you run Session. Accessing Session’s content via
DVD-ROM results in slightly slower computer performance. If the required hard
drive space is available, installing the Session Content on your computer’s hard
drive is recommended.
