Installation.

Installation is quite simple overall, and doesn't require any particular advice. That said, we found the user's manual rather poorly conceived, and lacking in details. For instance, we found no pictures demonstrating the card's connectors. As a result, once the card is actually installed, it becomes clearly necessary to turn your system around, and peer at the individual ports to determine which is which. Considering how easy it would have been to simply include a picture of the connectors and their mated ports, we found the entire situation rather ridiculous - not to mention inconvenient.

The software bundle

A great number of applications are actually included on the installation CD, so we'll limit ourselves to merely summarizing them in this instance.

The image below is a satisfactory reproduction of the installation control panel, and of the many applications users are presented with.

The image featured below provides a nice view of the S-YXG50 mixing & MIDI synthesizer application.

The next image is of the Multi Station app, which permits users to play audio CDs, Wave (.WAV) files, and MIDI files..
