IMPORTANT NOTES

291a

In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 3, please read and

observe the following:

Power Supply

307

• Before connecting this unit to other devices,

turn off the power to all units. This will help

prevent malfunctions and/or damage to

speakers or other devices.

Placement

351

• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or

other equipment containing large power

transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate

the problem, change the orientation of this

unit; or move it farther away from the source

of interference.

352a

• This device may interfere with radio and

television reception. Do not use this device in

the vicinity of such receivers.

352b

• Noise may be produced if wireless communi-

cations devices, such as cell phones, are

operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such

noise could occur when receiving or initiating

a call, or while conversing. Should you

experience such problems, you should

relocate such wireless devices so they are at a

greater distance from this unit, or switch

them off.

354a

• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight,

place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it

inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise

subject it to temperature extremes. Excessive

heat can deform or discolor the unit.

355

• To avoid possible breakdown, do not use the

unit in a wet area, such as an area exposed to

rain or other moisture.

Maintenance

401a

• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a

soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly

dampened with water. To remove stubborn

dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild,

non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure

to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry

cloth.

402

• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or

solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility

of discoloration and/or deformation.

Additional Precautions

553

• Use a reasonable amount of care when using

the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls;

and when using its jacks and connectors.

Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

556

• When connecting / disconnecting all cables,

grasp the connector itself—never pull on the

cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts,

or damage to the cable’s internal elements.

558a

• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to

keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels.

You may prefer to use headphones, so you do

not need to be concerned about those around

you (especially when it is late at night).

559a

• When you need to transport the unit, package

it in the box (including padding) that it came

in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use

equivalent packaging materials.

562

• Use a cable from Roland to make the

connection. If using some other make of

connection cable, please note the following

precautions.

• Some connection cables contain resistors.

Do not use cables that incorporate resistors

for connecting to this unit. The use of such

cables can cause the sound level to be

extremely low, or impossible to hear. For

information on cable specifications, contact

the manufacturer of the cable.

6

IMPORTANT NOTES

Handling CD-ROMs

801

• Avoid touching or scratching the shiny

underside (encoded surface) of the disc.

Damaged or dirty CD-ROM discs may not be

read properly. Keep your discs clean using a

commercially available CD cleaner.

Copyright

851

• Unauthorized recording, distribution, sale,

lending, public performance, broadcasting, or

the like, in whole or in part, of a work

(musical composition, video, broadcast,

public performance, or the like) whose

copyright is held by a third party is

prohibited by law.

853

• Do not use this unit for purposes that could

infringe on a copyright held by a third party.

We assume no responsibility whatsoever with

regard to any infringements of third-party

copyrights arising through your use of this

unit.

Features of the UA-20

Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the UA-20. The UA-20 is a USB

audio interface that can be connected to your computer by a single USB cable,

allowing you to record and play back audio data in high-quality digital form.

Awesome, high-quality, 24-bit sound

You can use your computer to digitally record and play back unbelievably high-

quality audio in 24-bit format.

* Your application must support 24-bit audio data.

Mic/guitar input

The high-impedance inputs allow not only mic but also guitar or bass to be

connected directly. RCA phono-type output jacks and a digital output jack (optical)

are also provided.

Direct Monitor function

The Direct Monitor function allows the input signal from each input jack to be

directly monitored in real time from headphones or the analog outputs, without

routing the audio through your computer application. You can also switch the

monitor function on/off from an ASIO 2.0 compatible application.

WDM/ASIO 2.0 drivers included

You can enjoy high performance when using WDM-compatible applications such

as SONAR, and ASIO-compatible applications such as Cubase and Logic. Of course

you can also use the UA-20 with applications that support MMD (Windows) or

SoundManager (Mac OS).

* Roland will provide no guarantee or support regarding operation with sequencer software or

audio editing software made by another manufacturer. Please contact the manufacturer of the

software you are using.

MIDI IN/OUT interface

A set of MIDI IN/OUT connectors is provided for easy connection with MIDI

devices.

What is USB?

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus. It is a new interface used to connect various

peripheral devices to a computer.

USB allows more than one peripheral device to be connected via a single USB cable,

and also allows data to be transmitted more rapidly than conventional serial ports.

Peripherals can also be connected or disconnected with the power turned on, and

the computer will automatically recognize the peripheral that has been plugged in.

(Some peripherals may require settings or other operations to be performed.)

Getting Connected and Installing

Drivers (Windows)

If you are using a Macintosh computer, please proceed to

Getting Connected and

Installing Drivers (Macintosh)

(p. 42).

What is a driver?

fig.05-1e_50

A

“

driver

”

is software that

transfers data between the

UA-20 and application

software running on your

computer, when your

computer and the UA-20

are connected by a USB

cable. The driver sends

data from your

application to the UA-20, and from the UA-20 to your application.

Advanced mode and Standard driver mode

The UA-20 has two operating modes,

Advanced mode

and

Standard driver

mode

, and a different driver is used by each mode.

■

Advanced mode

The UA-20 will operate in this mode when the rear panel

ADVANCE (mode select)

switch

is turned

ON

. The special driver included on the CD-ROM will be used,

allowing audio to be recorded/played/edited with high quality and stable timing.

In Advanced mode, audio signals can be transferred between the UA-20 and the

computer at a resolution of

24 bits

and sampling frequencies of

44.1 kHz

. 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 or Logic Audio). (

➝

Installing the special driver

(p. 17))

■ Standard driver mode

The UA-20 will operate in this mode when the rear panel ADVANCE (mode select)

switch is turned OFF. The standard USB audio driver included with Windows will

be used. In standard driver mode, audio signals are transferred between the UA-20

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.

The standard driver that is included with Windows does not support ASIO.

(➝ Installing the OS-standard driver (p. 31))

Getting Connected and Installing Drivers (Windows)

Installing the special driver

■ Windows XP/2000 users

The CD-ROM contains two types of driver for Windows XP/2000.

Normally, you should use the WDM driver.

WDM driver

You should use this driver if you have specified WDM driver mode for SONAR or

a similar application. This will provide the highest-quality audio performance.

* It is not possible to use 24-bit audio with applications that do not support a WDM driver

mode, such as Cool Edit or Media Player.

Switching between Advanced mode and Standard driver mode

If you first install both the special driver and the standard driver, you will be able

to switch between Advance and Standard driver modes by operating the UA-20's

ADVANCE (mode select) switch.

* In order for the setting of the ADVANCE (mode select) switch to take effect, you must

exit all sequencer software and other applications that use the UA-20, and re-connect the

UA-20.

The installation procedure will differ depending on your system.

Please proceed to one of the following sections, depending on the system you use.

• Windows XP/2000 users.................................(p. 17)

• Windows Me/98 users.....................................(p. 29)

MME driver

This driver allows you to use 24-bit audio even from applications that do not have

a WDM driver mode, such as Cool Edit. It is not possible to use the MME driver

from WDM driver mode of an application such as SONAR.

* It is not possible to install both the WDM driver and the MME driver. You must select

one beforehand, and install only that driver. If after installing one of these drivers you

decide to change drivers, you must first delete the already-installed driver and then

install the new driver. (➝ Deleting the special driver (p. 79))

* The WDM driver and the MME driver can be installed using the same procedure.
