Installing & Setting Up the Driver (Windows)
Special Driver and Standard Driver
The GS-10 features two operational modes, each of which uses a different type of driver, with one
mode using the special driver on the CD-ROM included with the GS-10 and the other mode using
the standard Windows driver.
Before installing the drivers, you must first switch the GS-10’s driver mode.
For instructions on switching the GS-10’s driver modes, refer to “Switching the Driver Mode” (p. 80).
■ Special Driver
Special Driver mode allows audio to be recorded/played/edited with high quality and stable
timing.
Audio signals can be transferred between the GS-10 and the computer at a resolution of 24 bits and
sampling frequencies of 44.1 kHz.
And in addition to audio, you can also control the GS-10 using MIDI messages and connect external
MIDI devices and computers.
Select this mode if you are using an application that allows high-quality audio recording/playback/
editing, such as an application that supports 24 bit audio (e.g., the Cakewalk series or Cool Edit) or
an ASIO-compatible application (e.g., Cubase VST, Logic Audio, or SingerSongWriter).

■ Standard Driver
In Standard Driver mode, audio signals are transferred between the GS-10 and the computer at a
resolution of 16 bits and sampling frequencies of 44.1 kHz.
Select this mode if you are using an application that uses Window’s own functionality, such as an
application that uses the computer’s CD-ROM drive to play back CD-audio, or an application that
uses the software synthesizer included with Windows.

* If you want to use MIDI, use special driver mode.
* The standard driver included with Windows does not support ASIO.
