Digidesign WaveDriver (Windows Only)
Introduction
The Digidesign WaveDriver is a two-channel, 
multimedia WaveDriver that allows third-party 
audio applications to record and play back 
through channels 1–2 of the Digi 002 on Win-
dows. The Digidesign WaveDriver is not re-
quired to use Pro Tools LE with the Digi 002.
Full-duplex recording and playback of 24- and 
16-bit audio are supported at sample rates of 
48 kHz and 44.1 kHz. Other word lengths and 
sample rates are available through the Microsoft 
Sound Mapper. 
Also included is the DigiGain volume control 
application. DigiGain allows control over the 
WaveDriver's master output volume, and input 
and record monitoring levels. DigiGain has no 
effect on recording or playback in Pro Tools or 
any other application that communicates with 
Digidesign hardware using Digidesign 
Direct I/O. 
Installing the WaveDriver
Before installing the driver, verify the following:
Pro Tools hardware and software must be prop-
erly installed and functional prior to installing the 
Digidesign WaveDriver
The WaveDriver requires several files installed 
with Pro Tools LE. Install Pro Tools LE prior to 
installing the WaveDriver. After launching and 
verifying that Pro Tools LE and Digi 002 are 
functioning correctly, restart Windows. The 
Digi 002 must be correctly installed, connected, 
and powered on to successfully install the 
Digidesign WaveDriver.
Check the Digidesign Web site 
(www.digidesign.com) for the latest version 
of the Digidesign WaveDriver that supports 
Digi 002, as well as current known issues.
WaveDriver is not multi-client. Only one 
application at a time can use the 
WaveDriver. Be sure to disable the Win-
dows system sounds. It is also recommend 
that you install a separate sound card for 
third-party soft-synthesizer and samplers, 
games, or multi-client audio work.
