WHAT'S NEW IN THIS PACKAGE
==========================

DIRECTX COMPATIBILITY

The Audiotrix Pro drivers in this package (ATPWAVE.DRV, 
ATPWAVE.VXD, OPL4.DRV) now offer support for DirectSound,
an API of Microsoft's Windows 95 DirectX architecture. 
DirectSound reduces the latency of sound playback under 
Windows 95. More and more games under Windows 95 are now 
requiring DirectX drivers.

NEW FORMAT FOR ADPCM

The new DIRECTX drivers no longer support hardware ADPCM.
However, the DIRECTX drivers do support Microsoft ADPCM as
available in Windows 95.  Consequently, we have included a
new INTRO-AD.WAV file which has been recorded in Microsoft
ADPCM.  Il you absolutety require support for hardware 
ADPCM, DO NOT INSTALL THESE NEW DRIVERS.

SET/BLASTER IN AUTOEXEC.BAT

The new installation procedure now puts the following lines
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
    SET MEDIATRIX=C:\TRXPRO
    C:\TRXPRO\SETUPPRO -I
    SET BLASTER=A220 I7 D1

If your SETUPPRO settings are changed from the normal Sound
Blaster default settings of Address 220, IRQ7 and DMA 1, 
you must manually change these settings in your 
AUTOEXEC.BAT file to conform the settings in the DOS 
Audiotrix Pro configuration (SETUPPRO.EXE).



=====================
ABOUT THIS PACKAGE...
=====================
You are about to install the Windows 95 drivers for the
Audiotrix Pro.

The MIDI drivers are based on the OPL4 drivers provided
by Yamaha.  We have, over time, modified and fine tuned
these drivers for optimum performance on the Audiotrix
Pro.  The wave drivers, which were formerly supplied
by Crystal Semiconductor, the manufacturer of the CS4231
Codec on the Audiotrix Pro, are now based on the Microsoft
Windows Sound System drivers.

For these drivers to work properly, you will still need
the card to be initialized in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file using
the "SET MEDIATRIX" and "SETUPPRO -I" lines.  These lines
will be added to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file by the installation
program of the Audiotrix Pro Windows 95 Setup disk (see
What's New in this package above).

The following accessories which were packaged on the
Audiotrix Pro Setup Disk no longer function with our
new Windows 95 drivers: "Audiotrix Pro Input Mixer",
"Audiotrix Pro Output Mixer" and the "Audiotrix Pro
Recorder".  These utilities were formerly supplied by
Crystal Semiconductor and are now replaced by the "Volume
Control" (for both input and output), and by the "Sound
Recorder".  To avoid confusion, the installation program
removes the Crystal icons from the Mediatrix folder.
These icons are replaced by a shortcut to the Windows
95 "Volume Control" and "Sound Recorder" applications.
You can find these two programs from the Start Menu,
in the \Programs\Accessories\Multimedia folder.

The Audiotrix Pro OPL4 driver provided in this package
fixes problems when using the RAM daughterboard software
under Windows 95.  You will also need to download an
update of the RAM software which has been revised to work
under Windows 95.  You can download these updated files
from our BBS at (819) 829-8749, or from our FTP site
(ftp.mediatrix.com).



============================================
PREPARATIONS BEFORE INSTALLING THESE DRIVERS
============================================
For this driver package to work properly, you must first
remove some of the sound drivers which were automatically
installed by Windows 95.

To do this, you must click on the "Start" button, select
"Settings", and then "Control Panel" to access the Windows
95 Control Panel.  Once there, double click on the "System"
icon, and select the "Device Manager" notebook tab.

Select "Sound, video and game controllers".  Remove the
following drivers: "MS Windows Sound System Compatible"
and "Windows Sound System Soundblaster Emulation".  Once
these drivers are removed, restart Windows 95.

If you had installed our beta driver package, you must also
remove the "Audiotrix Pro Sound Card" driver using the same
procedure as above.

Make sure you have installed the multimedia accessories
packaged with Windows 95.  These accessories include the
Media Player (for playing WAV or MID files), the Sound
Recorder (for recording WAV files) and the Volume Control.
If you have not installed these items, keep your Windows 95
CD-ROM or installation diskettes handy because you will
need them if you have not installed any of the Windows 95
multimedia components.



==================================================
INSTALLING THE AUDIOTRIX PRO WINDOWS 95 SETUP DISK
==================================================
Use the "Add/Remove Programs" Wizard in the "Control
Panel" to install the Audiotrix Pro Windows 95 Setup
disk.  To access the "Control Panel" click the "Start"
button, then select "Settings" and finally, select
"Control Panel".  Double click the "Add/Remove Programs"
icon to install the Setup disk.

Follow these steps in the "Add/Remove Programs" Wizard:

Step 1: Select the "Install/Uninstall" notebook tab and
        click on the "Install" button.

Step 2: Insert your Audiotrix Pro Windows 95 Setup disk
        in your floppy drive and click "Next".

Step 3: The "Add/Remove Programs" Wizard will locate the
        Setup program and will show you where it is.
        Click "Finish" to begin the installation process.

Step 4: Follow the prompts of the Audiotrix Pro Windows 95
        Setup Wizard.


-----
Notes
-----
During the installation process, the setup program
will ask you for the type of installation to perform.
You are presented with three choices:

  - Typical: Installs all program, driver and music
             files.  Updates your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
             This is the recommended installation.
  - Compact: Installs all program and driver files.
             Updates your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
  - Custom : Installs only the components you want
             to install.  Updates your AUTOEXEC.BAT 
             file only if you are installing the 
             Program files.

The setup program will try to find the Windows 95 Sound
Recorder and/or Volume Control programs.  It will create
shortcut to these items in the Mediatrix folder if it
finds them.

The setup program will not install the device drivers,
it only copies the necessary files to your hard disk.
You must manually install them using the "Add New Hardware"
Wizard.  The necessary driver files are copied to the
\TRXPRO\WIN95 directory.

The setup program removes the icons for the Crystal software,
as well as the old Audiotrix Pro READ ME, and Utilities Guide
files.



======================
INSTALLING THE DRIVERS
======================
Use the "Add New Hardware" Wizard in the "Control Panel"
to install the Audiotrix Pro drivers.  To access the
"Control Panel" click the "Start" button, then select
"Settings" and finally, select "Control Panel".  Double
click the "Add New Hardware" icon to install the drivers.

Follow these steps in the "Add New Hardware" Wizard:

Step 1: After viewing the first screen, click "Next" to
        continue

Step 2: Indicate you DO NOT want Windows to search for
        your new hardware and select "Next" to continue.

Step 3: Select "Sound, video and game controllers" as
        the hardware type you want to install then select
        "Next" to continue.

Step 4: You are now at the manufacturer selection screen.
        Select "Have Disk" and specify x:\TRXPRO\WIN95
        as the directory where to find the driver files.
        Where x: is the drive where you installed the
        Audiotrix Pro software (normally c:).  The
        Audiotrix Pro Windows 95 Setup program copies
        the driver files in the \TRXPRO\WIN95 directory.

Step 5: Select "Audiotrix Pro Sound Card" and click "OK".

Step 6: You will then see the configuration of the card.
        Click "Next" to continue.  If you do not see
        the configuration and you would like to, select
        "Details".  Windows will then copy the files
        required to use the driver.

Step 7: Select "Finish" to complete the installation
        procedure and restart your computer.


-----
Notes
-----
If you had installed our beta driver package, you must remove
the "Audiotrix Pro Sound Card" driver (as explained in the
Preparations Before Installing these Drivers section before
installing them using the above procedure.  If you do not
remove them, you will see two instances of the driver in
the Device Manager.

By default, the driver will be configured for full duplex
audio using the recommended full duplex configuration
(IRQ11, Play DMA 3, Record DMA 0, I/O 530).  If Windows 95
can not allocate two DMA channels (1 for playback and 1 for
recording), it will configure the driver for half duplex.

These drivers no longer need the SETUPPRO Wave configuration
to match the settings of the driver.  However, you still need
to initialize the Audiotrix Pro in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file for
the Soundblaster and General MIDI emulation to work.  We
will address this in a future release of the driver.

If the "Add New Hardware" Wizard prompts you to insert the
Windows 95 installation disk or CD, it is because you have
not installed some of the required multimedia components
(ie. Sound Recorder, Volume Control, audio codecs, etc.).
We have noticed that sometimes when the Wizard wants you
to insert the Windows 95 disk, it will not be able to 
locate the file it is looking for.  In these cases, make 
sure your Windows 95 CD or installation disks are present 
in the specified drive and click on the OK button.  If 
problems persist, click on the "Skip File" button to move 
on to the next file and exit the installation.  To install 
missing multimedia components, use the "Add/Remove Programs" 
Wizard in the control panel.



=====================================

    DrumLevel=64
    BankSelect=0

Please note future versions of the Audiotrix Pro OPL4
driver will write its configuration settings directly
in the Windows Registry.



==============================
HOW TO RECONFIGURE THE DRIVERS
==============================
To change the configuration of the wave drivers, go
in the "Control Panel", double click on the "System"
icon and then select the "Device Manager" notebook
tab.  Select "Sound, video and game controller" and
then double click "Audiotrix Pro Sound Card".  To modify
the configuration of the driver, select the "Resources"
notebook tab and you will see the current configuration
parameters of the driver.  Double click on the name
of the item you want to modify and you will be able
to change it's configuration setting.  Make sure your
settings here reflect your Wave Settings in SETUPPRO,
which is located in the \TRXPRO directory.

To configure the card for full duplex, you must use
"Basic Configuration 0".  In that setup, the first
DMA entry is the Wave playback DMA and the second
is the Wave capture DMA.

To modify the parameters of the OPL4 device driver, you
must go in "Multimedia", which is in the "Control Panel",
and select the "Advanced" notebook tab.   Select "Midi
Devices and Instruments", then double click on the
"Audiotrix Pro OPL4 Synth" driver and then select
"Settings".



===============
TROUBLESHOOTING
===============
Q : Why don't the Audiotrix Pro Input and Output Mixers
    work any more?
A : Because we wrote our own drivers for Windows 95, these
    programs which were provided by Crystal Semiconductor
    do not function anymore.  Instead, use the volume
    control icon which resides in the taskbar.

Q : I can't find the input mixer...  How am I supposed
    to select the input source to record?
A : First, you need to double click on the speaker icon
    in the taskbar, or on the volume control in the
    multimedia folder.  From the "Options" menu, select
    "Properties".  Then, in the "Adjust volume for" box,
    select "recording" and click "OK".  You will see the
    input mixer appear on the screen.  You can open two
    volume control windows on your screen, one for input
    and another for input.

Q : When I click on the Volume Control icon in the taskbar,
    I only get one slider called volume, how can I control
    individual sound outputs?
A : Double click on the Volume Control icon to get the
    full volume control panel.  To select which sliders
    are displayed, select "Properties" from the "Options"
    menu.  In the lower part of the screen, you can select
    which volume controls you want to display on the screen.

Q : The drivers are installed, I can hear sounds but the
    volume control icon is not in the taskbar.
A1: Go in the Control Panel, then select "Multimedia".
    In the "Audio" notebook tab, there is an option called
    "Show volume control in taskbar", select this item then
    click on the "Apply" button in the lower right corner of
    the screen to see the volume control.
A2: Make sure the Volume Control accessory is installed on
    your system.  If it is not, you can install it using
    the "Add/Remove Programs" Wizard in the Control Panel.

Q : After installing the drivers, when I restart my computer,
    I get the following error message: "ATPWAVE.VXD is out
    of date."
A : The "Microsoft Sound System" drivers are installed on
    the system.  You must remove them as explained in the
    "PREPARATIONS BEFORE INSTALLING THESE DRIVERS" section
    of this text.

Q : When I'm in a DOS box, I cannot hear General MIDI music
    in DOS games.
A : This is caused by the Windows OPL4 driver which sets
    the Audiotrix Pro MPU-401 interface to use an external
    MIDI device when you are in Windows.  You can resolve
    this problem by running the SETMPU utility (which is
    in the \TRXPRO directory) with the "/M3" parameter
    (ex.: "SETMPU /M3").  We will address this problem
    in a future release of the drivers.

Q : I have to reboot my computer twice to get the wave
    drivers work and get the volume control icon to
    appear in the taskbar.
A : To resolve this problem, you must change the
    configuration of the driver to make it use automatic
    settings determined on startup by Windows 95.  To
    do this, go in the driver configuration screen as
    explained in the "How to reconfigure the drivers"
    section.  Once in the "Resources" tab of the wave
    driver, you will notice there is a checkbox called
    "Use Automatic Settings".  You must check this box
    and this should resolve your problem.

Q : I am trying to play a game using Microsoft Sound System
    in a Windows DOS box, but I get no sound output.
A : Go in Mixerpro and raise the volume of "Wave out left"
    and "Wave out right".  This problem will be fixed in the
    next release of the driver.

Q : I have a Pentium 133 Mhz machine, and I am having problems
    playing MIDI music.
A : If you are in this situation, please e-mail our technical
    support department at "techsupp@mediatrix.com" to give us
    a description of your computer system (ie. motherboard,
    brand name, etc...).

    The OPL4 driver in this package should work properly,
    on most computers but a small number of users are still
    experiencing problems.  Please e-mail us at techsupp@mediatrix.com
    if you encounter any problems.  We will get back to you
    as soon as possible.
