DRIVER INSTALLATION

To use the Helix Board mixer efficiently (or at all) on a PC, it is important to install all the necessary drivers from the included DVD (ASIO
and WDM drivers). It is important that users read all instructions carefully before continuing on to the each step of installation, as users
will be prompted to plug in their device. A driver is not necessary for Mac users through FireWire. A USB driver for the Mac will be made
available on the Phonic website.
Windows XP (with Service Pack 2 or 3) or Vista
1. It is recommended that you quit all applications before starting the installation process.
2. Ensure the Helix Board Universal is not yet connected to your Computer's FireWire or USB input.
3. Insert the installation DVD included with your Helix Board mixer into the DVD drive of your computer. If the CD does not automatically
start the installation process within a few moments, then navigate to "My Computer" > your DVD-ROM drive > "USB_x_x_x_Phonic_
HB_12U" (for USB) or "1394a_x_x_x_Phonic_HB_12U" (for FireWire) > double-click "setup.exe" to begin the installation manually. The
Helix Board Control Panel software also will be installed at this time.

comparable.
