ESI MAYA44 USB

1. Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the ESI MAYA44 USB.

MAYA44 USB is a powerful portable audio interface, that provides 4 analog input and 4 analog

output channels plus a stereo digital output and amplified headphone output. It is very easy to use,

small and powerful. With our ASIO driver support MAYA44 USB works perfect with all current

recording and sequencer applications, as well as professional DJ applications. The USB connection

makes installation extremly simple.

Just plug it in and it works!

Features

MAYA44 USB is connected to the computer with a fixed USB connection cable. In addition the

product has these features:

1. S/PDIF optical output plus headphone output (channel 1 and 2)

2. 4 analog outputs (Line Out 1, 2 – channel 1 to 4)

3. 4 analog inputs (Line In 1, 2 – channel 1 to 4)

The cool compact design allows you to take MAYA44 USB with you, wherever you go. As

companion to a notebook computer, you can take your projects with you. MAYA44 USB is simple

to install and even easier to use. Working with samples, as a DJ or with software synthesizers has

never been easier, with the help from MAYA44 USB. The hardware works perfectly with important

ASIO compatible software applications such as Cubase, Reaktor, Reason or Live and with most

professional DJ applications such as MixVibes, BPM Studio or Traktor DJ Studio.

2. Installation

System Recommendation

MAYA44 USB is not simply a standard digital audio interface card, but a high-resolution device

capable of advanced processing of audio content. Even though MAYA44 USB is built to have low-

CPU resource dependability, system specifications play a key part in the MAYA44 USBs

performance. Systems with more advanced components are generally recommended.

Minimum System Requirements

- Intel Pentium II 450MHz CPU or comparable AMD CPU (or equivalent) – we recommend at

least a Pentium III CPU with 600 MHz

- Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, XP operating system

- 1 available USB port

- at least 128MB RAM

- high quality audio software with ASIO support strongly recommended

Mac

- Power Macintosh G3 or higher

- 1 available USB port

- at least 256MB RAM

- Mac OS X 10.3 or higher

Hardware Installation

MAYA44 USB is simply connected to an available USB port of your computer. A separate power

supply is not required, as MAYA44 USB is a USB powered device. Simply install the hardware by

plugging it into your computer.

Driver Installation

After the connection of MAYA44 USB, the operating system automatically detects it as a new

hardware device. Modern operating systems like Windows XP or Mac OS X usually detect the

hardware directly and are installing the correct USB audio drivers automatically.

You can use MAYA44 USB already now in some consumer audio applications that do not need

special professional ASIO driver support. Under Windows XP this could be for example programs

ESI MAYA44 USB

that don’t require ASIO like more simple DJ applications. Under Mac OS X this could be

applications like Garageband.

The following section describes the installation of our ASIO compatible special driver software

under Windows XP. The procedure is similar with other versions of Windows.

Installation under Windows XP

Unplug the device before you start the installer. Then launch setup.exe from the ESI/MAYA44USB

folder of the included driver CD or from a download of a recent driver from our website. You can

select the language used for installation, then the following dialog appears:

Choose Install the driver. The following window appears:

Accept the license agreement and then click on Install. Now 1:1 follow the instructions on screen

through out the installation process.

ESI MAYA44 USB

The installer will instruct you to plug-in the USB device to the computer. The detection can always

take a moment.

If you are told to do so like seen above, please unplug the device again, before you will be told to

plug it in again. If that happens, please wait again until the detection (like described above) is

completed.

ESI MAYA44 USB

The completion of the installation can be confirmed on the screen above with Exit.

Congratulations! You have now completed the installation of the special ASIO driver successfully

and the installation of MAYA44 USB has been completed now.

With the installer, you can also remove the driver again. If you want to do that, launch setup.exe

again and then choose the option Uninstall the driver.

3. Setting in Applications

This chapter contains basic configuration examples for some popular software applications. Please

always also refer to the manual of every audio software you use for detailed information.

ASIO Control Panel

Nearly all ASIO applications provide a button labeled ASIO Control Panel in the audio device

settings dialog that allows you to open the control panel window of the ASIO driver. The settings

done there are used for all ASIO applications, even though the dialog is only opened directly from

within an application:

ESI MAYA44 USB

System Performance changes buffer sizes and latencies. Higher values allow the use of more plug

ins, effects etc. at the same time but aren’t fun playing virtual instruments live.

If you open the Controls tab within the ASIO control panel, you’ll see the mixer window that is

explained below:

You can control the input monitor level, the input level and the output level from here. If you’re not

clear with this chapter, please refer to the block diagram on the following page.

ESI MAYA44 USB

1. Monitor Level Control Section

This section can be used to control the input monitor level. You can monitor the signals through the

input channel 1,2 and input channel 3,4 individually and/or simultaneously. It will not affect the

actual input level from the source. Even if these faders are muted, you can still record the signals

from the source, but you are not able to listen to (= monitor) the input source through the analog

output.

2. Input Level Control Section

This section controls the real input level through the input ports. You can control all 4 inputs using

the one set of the stereo faders.

3. Output Level Control Section

These are the master output level faders. You can control all the outputs using the single set of the

stereo master fader, except the digital optical output. You can control the monitoring level of the

input source through the input ports and/or the playing out level of the wave file through the analog

output ports.

Please note that the headphone output signal is the mixed signal from analog out 1, 2 and analog out

3, 4. Please also note that the analog headphone output and the digital optical output share the same

connector, i.e. they cannot be used simultaneously.

The Gang mode links the left and right faders of each channel together for easier stereo operation.

Deselect Gang if you need to control the left and right levels independently.
