To connect this unit to a computer running Windows 7 (or 
Windows Vista, XP) and to enable audio input/output, proceed 
as follows. The installation description uses Windows 7 as an 
example.
 
 
 
Download the latest ASIO driver from the web site of 
ZOOM Corporation (http://www.zoom.co.jp) and install 
the driver.
 
The ASIO driver software is required to enable use of Sequel LE for
audio input and output with a computer. Refer to the read_me file
included in the download package for instructions on how to install
the driver correctly. 
 
NOTE 
 
If the system software is an older version, the product may not be 
recognized properly by the computer. It is therefore recommended to 
always keep the system software updated to the latest version. The 
system software can be downloaded from our web site.
 
 
 
Insert the supplied "Sequel LE" CD-ROM into the CD 
drive of the computer, and perform the installation 
steps.
 
Insert the CD-ROM. When the contents of the CD-ROM are shown,
double-click "Sequel LE2 for Windows" and then select  "Setup.exe".
When the language selection screen appears, choose the language to
use.
After making the selection, follow the instructions on the screen.
 
HINT 
 
If nothing happens when you insert the CD-ROM, open the Start menu 
and select "Computer" ("My Computer" in Windows XP). Then 
double-click the "Sequel LE 2 for windows" CD-ROM icon to display 
the contents of the CD-ROM, and double-click the executable file 
"Setup" ("Setup.exe").
 
NOTE 
 
During the installation of Sequel LE, a screen asking about installation 
of activation (software license authentication) management software 
appears. Install this software, because it is required for registering 
Sequel LE. 
 
Connect this unit to the computer using a USB cable. 
 
 
 
NOTE 
 
• If you monitor the audio signal during recording via the audio output 
of the computer, there will be an audible delay. Be sure to use the 
[OUTPUT] jack of this unit to monitor the signal.
• When this unit is operated on USB bus power via the USB cable, 
insufficient power may result in unstable operation or error 
indications appearing on the computer screen or unit display.
In such a case, power the device from an AC adapter.
• Use a high-quality USB cable and keep the connection as short as 
possible. If USB bus power is supplied to this unit via a USB cable 
that is more than 3 meters in length, the low voltage warning 
indication may appear.
 
HINT 
 
• No special steps are necessary for canceling the USB connection. 
Simply disconnect the USB cable from the computer.
• When you connect this unit for the first time to a computer running 
Windows 7, a message saying "New Hardware Found" will appear. 
Before proceeding, wait a while until this message disappears.
 
Bring up the "Sound" window from the Control Panel 
and make the input device setting for the computer.
 
To bring up the "Sound" window, select "Control Panel" from the
Start menu and click "Hardware and Sound", then click "Sound". 
 
In the "Sound" window, verify that "ZOOM G Series Audio" is listed
under the Play and Record devices and that the device is checked. (To
switch between Play and Record, click the tabs at the top of the
window.)
If the device is not checked, right-click on the icon for the device and
click "Set as Default Device" so that a check mark appears.
 
Launch Sequel LE and select "ZOOM G Series ASIO" 
as the ASIO driver.

created on the desktop.
After Sequel LE starts, click the button in the bottom left corner of the
Multi Zone area of the Sequel window to open the settings page. Click
the Audio Connection item and select "ZOOM G series ASIO" from
the pop-up menu.
When you change the ASIO driver, a confirmation window will
appear. Click the "Switch" button. 
  
Next, click the "Setup..." button to open a window where you can set
the latency of the ASIO driver. Set the latency as low as possible
without causing the sound to drop out during recording and playback.
