To alter an input channel's name on your computer, open the
Phonic Control Panel software. On the left hand side of the
control panel, users will find the settings categories. By clicking
"Input Channels", the main window will display the titles input
channels. You can then highlight the channel names and press
the "Edit Channel Name" button on the bottom of the control
window. A new window will appear that will allow users to enter a
new name for the channel.
If you would like to use the Firefly as your default audio output
device on your PC, simply go into the Windows control panel and
select "Sound and Audio Devices." Click on the Audio tab and
use the pull-down menu to select the Firefly 808 Universal from
the list of available devices. The Firefly can also be selected as
the default output device for individual programs by editing said
programs' settings / options.
Cubase LE 4
Cubase LE is a fairly powerful program provided along with the
Firefly interface that allows users to record, mix, edit, delete,
and alter their tracks. Please note that only 8 tracks can be
recorded at once with the version of Cubase included, and
users must upgrade to Cubase SX, or find other suitable DAW
software, if they choose to record more tracks.

Installation
Insert the Cubase LE 4 installation CD that came with your
Firefly into the CD-ROM drive of your computer. Run the
installer. You must install Steinberg's registration software to be
able to use the software successfully.
Setup
After successfully completing the installation process, the
following process must be followed to work efficiently with the
Friefly.
1. Open the Cubase LE 4 program and start a new Project.
Add a track or two to this project.
2. Go to the 'Devices' pull-down menu and select 'Device
Setup'. On the left, select 'VST Multitrack'.
3. From the ASIO Driver drop-down list select the "Phonic
ASIO Driver." A pop-up box will ask you if you want to switch
the ASIO driver. Click 'Switch.' This completes the basic
installation and setup.
4. Activating audio tracks received from the Firefly.
a. Go to the "devices" pull-down menu and select 'VST
Inputs'. This will display the various inputs ("Phonic
FF808U Ch 1", "Phonic FF808U Ch 2", etc.)
b. Activate 8 of these channels by clicking the "Active"
button located next to each channel name. Please note,
only 8 input channels can be activated at any one time
in this version of Cubase. This is a limitation of Cubase
LE 4. If more input channels are needed, we suggest
upgrading to a higher version of Cubase, or use other
DAW software.
5. For further instructions on the operation of Cubase, please
consult the user manual by pressing F1 while the program is
open.
If you wish to reset the Phonic ASIO driver, simply go to the '
devices' pull-down menu and select 'device setup'. Simply
click "reset" and select the "Phonic ASIO Driver". Click 'ok
' to continue and the Firefly 808 should once again become
functional.
FireWire Device Control Panel
The FireWire control panel can be accessed at any time by
entering choosing the shortcut from your Programs menu.
This program will not only allow users to alter their device and
channel names and properties, but will also let them correct
for latency issues, change sampling rates, and so forth. When
opening the software, a number of options will be available
for users to select from, allowing them to adjust the available
properties.
Devices
In the Devices section, users are able to view and edit the name
of the Phonic FireWire or USB Devices currently connected to
their computer.
