GETTING STARTED
There are 3 simple steps to installing your INport Deluxe:
Step one: Automatically loading the drivers.
Step two: Setting up your INport in Windows.
Step three: Connecting to your stereo and recording.

STEP ONE

Loading your INport is as simple as plugging it into a free USB port on your
computer. There’s no special software to install, but you will need to follow
a few easy steps.

Windows 98SE
Note: If you have any trouble loading INport, make sure your computer is
running all of the latest hardware updates - especially the ones for your
soundcard and motherboard. These are available from your computer
manufacture. Visit the troubleshooting section at the end of this user
manual for more information.
1. Find a free USB port on the back of your computer and plug in the
supplied USB cable. Plug your INport into the other end of the USB
cable. Don’t plug INport into a USB hub - other devices on the hub
may interfere with the audio data, causing pops and clicks in your
recordings.
2. Windows 98SE will open an Add New Hardware Wizard and let you
know it’s found INport. It will then start loading drivers for a USB
Composite Device, USB Human Interface Device, or USB Audio Device
(depending on what has been installed on your system in the past).
Click Next.
3. Check the option Search for the best driver for your device
(Recommended) and click Next.

INPORT – USER MANUAL | 1


4. Windows 98SE should automatically default to the location of the
necessary drivers on your hard drive. Click Next. Windows 98SE may
ask for the Windows 98SE CD. In this case, put your Windows 98SE
CD into the CD-ROM drive and direct the installer to the Win98 folder
on the CD. Click Next.
5. The Wizard will let you know it’s located drivers for a USB Composite
Device, USB Human Interface Device, or USB Audio Device and will
identify these drivers under the heading Location of Driver. This
location may be your hard drive, or CD-ROM drive, depending on what
drivers your system has installed in the past. Click Next.
6. The first set of drivers will now install.
7. Once the first set of drivers finishes installing, Windows 98SE may
load the other USB drivers. This depends on what USB devices
have been used on your system in the past. Simply follow the steps
outlined above until all required USB drivers have been loaded.
8. Once the drivers have finished installing, we recommend rebooting
your computer to ensure all changes take effect. Your driver
installation for INport is now complete. Go to Step 2 on page 5.

Windows ME
Note: According to Microsoft knowledge base Q280127, some systems
running Windows ME may require a Microsoft update for USB audio
devices. We recommend downloading this from Microsoft before
installing INport. The necessary update is called 280127USAM.exe and
can be obtained directly from Microsoft. Unfortunately we couldn’t
provide this update on the CD because Microsoft wants customers
to contact them directly. If you can’t find these drivers on Microsoft’s
website, send our technical support an email via support@xitel.com.
1. Find a free USB port on the back of your computer and plug in the
supplied USB cable. Plug your INport into the other end of the
USB cable. Don’t plug INport into a USB hub - other devices on the
hub may interfere with the audio data, causing pops and clicks in
your recordings.

2. Windows ME will open a New Hardware Found window and let you
know it’s found INport. It will then start loading drivers for a USB
Composite Device, USB Human Interface Device, or USB Audio Device
(depending on what has been installed on your system in the past).
Click Next.
3. In the Add New Hardware Wizard, place a check next to the option
Automatic Search for a Better Driver (Recommended) and click Next.
4. The Add New Hardware Wizard will automatically select a Windows
Driver folder. When it has completed loading drivers from this folder,
the Add New Hardware Wizard will let you know that it’s done. Click
on Finish. If a message pops up saying there’s a version conflict and
that a file being copied is older than a file currently on your computer,
click Yes to keep the existing file.
5. Once the first set of drivers has finished installing, Windows ME
may require the other USB drivers to also be installed. This depends
on what USB devices have been used on your system in the past.
Simply follow the steps outlined above until all USB drivers have
been loaded.
6. Once the drivers have finished installing, we recommend rebooting
your computer to ensure all changes take effect. Your driver
installation for INport is now complete. Go to Step 2 on page 5.

Windows 2000
1. Find a free USB port on the back of your computer and plug in the
supplied USB cable. Plug your INport into the other end of the
USB cable. Don’t plug INport into a USB hub - other devices on the
hub may interfere with the audio data, causing pops and clicks in
your recordings.
2. Windows 2000 will automatically update your USB drivers.
3. Once Windows 2000 has completed updating the USB drivers, it
should automatically set INport as your preferred recording device.
4. We recommend rebooting your computer to ensure all changes take
effect. Your driver installation for the INport is now complete. Go to
Step 2 on page 5.

STEP TWO

Choosing your INport for Recording


There’s never any need to turn off your computer when plugging in, or
unplugging INport. When you want to use it, simply close any programs
and plug INport into a free USB port - your system will then automatically
configure. When you’re done, you can unplug INport and your computer will
revert back to your soundcard. For smooth loading, please make sure all
audio programs are closed before plugging in, or unplugging your INport.

Note: Plug your INport directly into a free USB port. If you’re using a
desktop, it’s best to use a USB port on the back of your system. Do not use a
hub if possible - hubs can prevent your computer from seeing INport. If you
must use a hub, make sure it is a powered one.
Note: when INport is selected as your system’s preferred recording device,
you will not be able to record through your soundcard. If you wish to use
your soundcard instead of INport, either unplug INport from the USB cable,
or select your soundcard as preferred recording device in the Multimedia
Properties control panel for Windows 98SE, Sounds and Multimedia control
panel for Windows ME and Windows 2000, or Sounds and Audio Devices
control panel for Windows XP.

Windows 98SE
Once Windows 98SE starts, go to:
Start > Settings > Control Panel > Multimedia > Audio Tab
Set Recording Preferred Device to USB Audio Device. Set Playback Preferred
Device to your system soundcard. Put a check next to the option Use only
Preferred Devices that appears at the bottom of the window. Go to Step 3
on page 8.
Note: If you cannot select USB Audio Device in the Recording Preferred
Device Window, make sure your computer is running the latest soundcard
drivers. Older soundcard drivers can stop Windows from using your INport.
Please refer to the troubleshooting section at the end of this user manual
for more information.

INPORT – USER MANUAL | 5


Windows ME
Once Windows ME starts, go to:
Start > Settings > Control Panel > Sounds and Multimedia > Audio Tab
Set Recording Preferred Device to USB Audio Device. Set Playback Preferred
Device to your system soundcard. Put a check next to the option Use only
Preferred Devices that appears at the bottom of the window. Go to Step 3
on page 8.
Note: According to Microsoft knowledge base article Q280127 some
systems running Windows ME may require an operating system update for
USB audio devices to work. We recommend installing this update before
installing INport. The necessary update is called 280127USAM.exe and can
be obtained directly from Microsoft.

Windows 2000
Once Windows 2000 starts, go to:
Start > Settings > Control Panel > Sounds and Multimedia > Audio Tab
Set Recording Preferred Device to USB Audio Device. Set Playback Preferred
Device to your system soundcard. Put a check next to the option Use only

STEP THREE – RECORDING FROM YOUR STEREO

INport is compatible with a huge variety of software. Included in the pack


are three free programs that make recording as easy as possible.

Installing the Software:


Insert the CD that came with your INport into your computer’s CD/DVD-ROM
drive. A window should automatically pop up. Click on the program you want
to install. You will need to enter your registration number to unlock all of the
features. This number is printed on the front of the paper cover your CD came
in. DO NOT LOSE THIS NUMBER. You should record it in a safe place.
Note: Each program that comes with INport has a detailed user manual
built in. To access the user manuals for LPRipper and LPRecorder, start
either program and go to Help in the navigation bar, then select Contents
and Index. For Wave Corrector, start the program and go to Help in the
navigation bar, then select Help Topics.

Recording:
1. Connecting INport to your stereo: using the supplied cable, plug the red
and white ends into the red and white sockets on your INport. Plug the
other ends of the cable into the red and white audio outputs on your
stereo receiver, tape deck, CD player, DVD player, MiniDisc player, etc.
The audio outputs are usually labeled Line Out, Aux Out, Tape Rec or Send.
If your stereo doesn’t have any red and white audio outputs, you can
record from the headphone jack instead. You will need to purchase an
adapter cable that goes from a male headphone jack to female RCA
connectors so you can use your INport cable. You can find these
adapters at Radio Shack.
INport is not designed to record directly from a turntable that only has a
phono level output.
If you want to record directly from a turntable without going through a
receiver, you will need to use a pre-amplifier. You can get these at
www.audioreplay.net.

8 | INPORT – USER MANUAL


WARNING: do not plug INport into the speaker outputs on your stereo
system – these will damage your INport.
2. Setting volume levels:
Windows Vista users: skip to next point.
Double click on the Speaker icon in the bottom right hand corner of
Windows. In the Volume Control panel go to:
Options > Properties > in Mixer Device select USB Audio Device or INport
> in Adjust Volume For select Recording > put a check next to all options
to show all volume controls > hit OK > set all volume control sliders
to maximum > put a check under the option Line Balance > close the
Volume Control panel.

3. Start LPRecorder. In the Audio Settings window choose the following:

INPORT – USER MANUAL | 9


Recording Device: set to USB Audio or INport or Line (INport).
Playback Device: set to your computer soundcard.
Put a check a check next to Simultaneous Playback and
Display when starting.
Hit OK when you’re done.
4. In the Directory bar, choose the folder where you want to save your
recorded files or type in a name to create a new folder. We’re going
to use the folder Recorded Music for Directory as an example. In the
Filename field, type in the name of the album you want to record. We’re
going to use the name New Album as an example. If you also use these
names, you’ll be able to follow our example each step of the way.

5. In the left hand box, choose Line in the drop down menu. Windows Vista
will default automatically to Master Volume.
Do not put a check next to Auto Start.
Put a check next to Auto Stop.
Put a check next to Auto Level.
6. In the right hand box, set the Volume slider in to minimum.

10 | INPORT – USER MANUAL


7. LPRecorder has automatic leveling that stops your music from clipping.
To set the right volume, start playing some audio on your stereo. Raise
the volume slider in LPRecorder. In the Level section you should see
two green bars move up and down. You’ll want to set the volume so that
during the loudest part of your music, the bars move up and down in the
green without turning red (it’s ok if they turn yellow). We’ve found the
optimum for recording from most stereo equipment is with the volume
around 30. At this level the bars should be green and may sometimes
move into the yellow.
8. Once the levels have been set, you’re ready to record. Stop your music
and rewind it to where you want to start. Hit the red circle record button
in LP Recorder, then start playing your music on the stereo. This will now
be recorded onto your hard drive. To get the best results, you shouldn’t
use your computer for any other tasks during recording.
Note: With the Auto Stop feature, it is important to start LPRecorder
before you start your music on the stereo. If you start your stereo first and
LPRecorder second, LPRecorder may stop recording in a quiet passage.
With Auto Stop enabled, LPRecorder can sometimes stop recording if it
detects a long period of silence that it thinks is the end of your source.
To avoid this, uncheck Auto Stop and manually stop LPRecorder at the
end of your recording session.
9. When your source stops playing, LPRecorder will continue to record for
10 seconds before automatically stopping.

INPORT – USER MANUAL | 11


Removing pops and clicks
After you have finished recording, you will have one large wav file on your
hard drive. You can use Wave Corrector De-Click to remove unwanted pops
and clicks in one simple step. Wave Corrector is not a filter! It analyzes
your music and removes individual pops and clicks by extrapolating the
audio without effecting overall fidelity. It is one of the most powerful and
effective programs around. It is important to remember that a pop or click is
damaged audio information that in some cases cannot be totally fixed
or removed.
1. Start Wave Corrector De-Click

2. Click on the Add button and choose the folder where you have just
saved your music. Select the wav file you have just created using
LPRipper and press the Open button.

12 | INPORT – USER MANUAL


Using our example, the folder you created with LPRipper is called
Recorded Music on C drive. The name of the wav file you want to load is
New Album.wav.
3. Press the Start button. Wave Corrector will begin removing pops and
clicks. You can follow the progress using the blue meter at the bottom of
the window. Use the Detector Threshold slider to adjust how aggressive
Wave Corrector is. Setting 3 (in the middle) is the best for most music.
Use setting 5 (maximum) only for badly damaged albums.

4. When Wave Corrector is done, a new file will be saved into the same
folder that you just loaded from. It will have the words cor added to the
end of the title to show it’s been corrected.
In our example, the corrected file will be saved as New Albumcor.wav in
the C:\Recorded Music folder. This indicates our original file, New Album.
wav, has now been cleaned.

INPORT – USER MANUAL | 13


Splitting tracks
The music you have just cleaned still exists on your hard drive as one large
wav file. You can use LPRipper to cut this up into individual songs.
Important: To get the feel of how LPRipper works, we suggest you start by
recording a small wav file that only has 3 or 4 songs. Once you get used
to how LPRipper works, you can move into cutting up larger wav files with
many more songs.
1. Start LPRipper, then go to:
Options > Preferences > Directories tab > Wave Directory section >
Directory bar > choose the folder where you saved your wav file
after removing the pops and clicks. For our example, that is
C:\Recorded Music.
In the Target Directory, select a folder where you want your finished
songs to be saved. We’re going to use the same C:\Recorded Music
folder that we’ve used all along. You can choose the same folder
automatically if you put a check next to the option Same as the
wave directory.

14 | INPORT – USER MANUAL


2. You can now open a wav file. Go to File then Open. Choose the wav file
you want and press Open.
In our example we’re going to open New Albumcor.wav. This is the file
that we have already cleaned using Wave Corrector.

3. In the Analyse window, enter the number of songs you recorded in the
No of tracks field. Put a check next to Detecting silence between tracks.
Hit OK.

4. LPRipper will analyze your file and insert


tracks between songs. This is a very
difficult operation for a computer to
perform, so not all track marks may be
spot on. You should check track mark
placement using the Trim function.

INPORT – USER MANUAL | 15


5. To open the Trim screen, click on the magnifying glass icon or go to
Edit, then Trim Tracks. In the Trim Tracks screen, the top window shows
how your total wav file looks. The bottom window is a close up view of
how your wav file looks around the track marks. The portion in yellow
represents the track you are currently working on.

6. In the bottom part of the screen are your navigation and preview
controls. Set Length to 4. This will give you a 4-second preview that you
can listen to as you adjust your track marks. Use the green play button
in the Preview controls to listen to a preview.
You can move track marks using your mouse. Left click on the first track
in the top window. The track will light up yellow. Put a check next to
Start in the navigation and preview controls. To move the track mark,
put your mouse cursor over the green vertical line in the top window.
The green line appears at the start of the yellow highlighted track. When
the mouse cursor turns into a left/right icon, left click and hold your
mouse button to drag green line to where the beginning of your track is.
You can then use the bottom window to precisely place the track mark
using the same technique. Press the green play button in the Preview
controls to hear if your track mark is where you want it.
7. To set the end of track 1, put a check next to End in the navigation and
preview controls. It’s easy to distinguish where the end of a track should
be, as the audio will drop down like a valley. If you look at our example,
you can see four tracks separated by three valleys. If you look in the
bottom window, you can see there is a point where the audio drops

16 | INPORT – USER MANUAL


down and goes flat. This is a gap between songs. Use your mouse to place
the red vertical line at the end of the track. Super fine-tuning can be done
by using the buttons next to End and Start in the navigation and preview
controls. You should see the vertical track line move in the bottom
window as you adjust using these buttons. Keep using the Play button in
the Preview controls to check the ending of track 1 is correct. When you’re
happy, use your mouse to click on Track 2 in the top Window to select it.

8. LPRipper will now move to the start of track 2. You can move and set
the start of track 2 exactly the same way you did for track 1. By using
the Forward and Rewind buttons in the Preview controls, you can swap
between the ending of track 1 and the beginning of track 2 to check how it
all sounds.

INPORT – USER MANUAL | 17


When you’re done, hit the Forward button in the Preview controls or
put a check next to End to move to the end of track 2. You can also left
click on the end of track 2 using your mouse in the top window. Keep
using the Play button in the Preview controls to check how your track
placement sounds. Continue to do this until all tracks have been set.
Note: LPRipper has a number of other powerful features that let you
set, merge and trim tracks. You should read the user manual for further
details by going to Help and then Content and Index in LPRipper. It’s
important you familiarize yourself with this manual as Xitel Technical
Support can only offer limited assistance on how to use your software.
9. After you’ve finished setting all of your track marks, hit OK. All tracks will
now appear with new start and finish times. If you go to Edit, then Edit
Tracks, you can enter the song names of your new tracks. Hit OK.

10. To save your work, go to File, then Save. Your new tracks will be saved
as individual wav files with the song names you have given them. In our
example these will all be saved in the C:\Recorded Music folder so that
you can quickly find them.
If you’re happy with how everything sounds, you may want to delete
the large wav files that have been created along the way. This will free
up space on your hard drive. In our example we would delete the New
Album.wav file and New Albumcor.wav file. Only do this if you are happy
with the individual song files and don’t need to do any more work!

18 | INPORT – USER MANUAL


You can now use your burner software to save all of your individual wav
files onto CD to create a music CD.
LPRipper also has the ability to save all of your work as MP3 files rather
than wav files. This is good if you intend on using them with an iPod
or other MP3 player. For more details on how to set up the encoder in
LPRipper, start LPRipper and go to Help, then Contents and Index, then
Menu Commands, then Edit Menu, then Preferences then click on the
Encoder icon. This page will detail how to set up LPRipper so that you
can encode tracks directly into MP3s. You should also visit the LPRipper
Links page on the CFB Software website at www.cfbsoftware.com to
download the free MP3 encoder. You need to install this in order for the
MP3 encoder in LPRipper to work.
Please note: Xitel is not able to provide assistance surrounding the general
operation of LPRipper. You should take time to familiarize yourself with the
LPRipper user manual and visit the CFB Software site at www.cfbsoftware.
com for further information.

Editing your wav files:


All of the music you have recorded is on your hard drive in wav
format, allowing you to further manipulate or work on it using any
editing software. This is not required for making a CD or MP3 – it’s
just another fun way of experimenting with your audio. One of the
best editing programs is called Audacity. You can download it for
free from here:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
We highly recommend Audacity for all enthusiasts!

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
1. Your computer doesn’t seem to have all the right drivers in Windows
2. Your INport looked to install fine, but you can’t select it as preferred
recording device
3. Your recording has a lot of pops and clicks that aren’t on the record

1. Your computer doesn’t seem to have all the right


drivers in Windows
Problem: After plugging in your INport for the first time, Windows doesn’t
seem to automatically load the right drivers and you can’t seem to find
them on the Windows CD either.
Fix: If you’re running Windows 98SE and your computer is asking for
drivers, make sure you directed the installer to the Win98 folder on your
Windows 98SE CD. For all other versions of Windows, the INport does not
need any special device drivers to operate, but does need the following
generic Microsoft to be on your system:
C:\windows\inf\usb.inf
C:\windows\inf\wdma_usb.inf
If these are present, you should direct the installer to load them from
the C:\windows\inf\ folder by typing this into the location bar. If these
drivers are not on your system, you will need to contact your computer
manufacture to find out why they have been removed. They should be able
to provide an update that makes your version of Windows the same as a
retail copy of Windows. The INport doesn’t need any special drivers at all,
it just needs your copy of Windows to be running the same as Microsoft
intended. All of the drivers needed are already a part of Windows and were
written by Microsoft to support a broad range of devices such as the INport.
According to Microsoft knowledge base article Q280127 some systems
running Windows ME may require an operating system update for USB
audio recording devices to work correctly. We recommend installing this
operating system update before installing the INport. The necessary update
is called 280127USAM.exe and can be obtained directly from Microsoft.

20 | INPORT – USER MANUAL


Unfortunately we couldn’t provide this update on the CD because Microsoft
requires users to contact them directly.

2. Your INport looked to install fine, but you can’t select it as


preferred recording device
Problem: Your INport went through most of the driver install or all of the
driver installation, but now when you try to select it in the recording section
of the multimedia control panel, there doesn’t appear to be any option for
USB audio device.
Fix: This occurs when the soundcard installed in your system does not
correctly release audio resources, preventing the INport from being
available as a choice in the multimedia control panel. Most soundcard
manufacturers are now aware of this problem and have released updated
drivers that fix this issue. Check with the vendor of your soundcard to get
the latest drivers for your hardware. If the soundcard you have came pre-
installed in your system, check with the manufacturer of your system for the
latest soundcard drivers. You should update your soundcard drivers while
leaving the INport plugged in.

3. Your recording has a lot of pops and clicks that aren’t


on the record
Problem: You’ve installed the INport and it seems to be recording fine,
except there are pops and clicks or distortion.
Fix: This occurs when something is interfering with the data transmission
between your INport and computer, causing audio frames to be lost. The
usually occurs if:
• USB frame rates are out of specification - isochronous data transfer
(required for audio) is not possible via USB with a frame rate that is too
fast or too slow.
• Controllers do not enumerate devices correctly - some controllers do not
send USB resets at the appropriate times or may enumerate one part of
a composite device.

INPORT – USER MANUAL | 21


• Corrupting audio data - some USB controllers introduce artifacts into
sound data (i.e. CATC traces of USB data have shown non-zero vales in
data that should be all zeros).
To solve this problem, make sure you’re not running any other programs
in the background when trying to record using the INport - anything that
causes a lot of hard disk access can effect the data flowing down the
USB. Virus checking programs that continually run in the background are
particular bad. Some drastically effect the isochronous data flow down
the USB. It’s therefore important to disable all virus checking programs.
Make sure that your INport is not plugged into a hub. Use a USB port on the
back of your computer. Also, make sure that you’re running the most up to
date drivers for your soundcard, modem, and BIOS – all of these can effect
audio devices.
If you’re using a laptop or notebook computer, the data flowing to the
INport can be severely effected by the processing power management of
the CPU. Ensure that in the System control panel your computer is set to
Desktop. To verify this, go to Start, then Settings, then Control Panel. Click
on System and go to the Performance Tab. In Performance, click on File
System and make sure your laptop is set to Desktop and not Server.
Laptops are not suitable for recording via USB in power conservation
mode due to the variable operating speed of their CPU and other power
management features. You should make sure that the advanced power
management settings of your laptop are set so that your CPU operates at
a constant and maximum clock speed. Check your laptop user manual, or
with your laptop manufacturer on how to do this.
If your laptop is also equipped with a wireless network or lan, make sure
that your local area connection is turned off if you’re not within range of
the network. If you’re using Windows XP, make sure you’ve installed all of
the latest Microsoft Windows XP updates including at least Service Pack 1
and Messenger Update for Audio and Video. Windows XP Service Pack 2
may cause conflicts through IRQ sharing that can effect data flow around
your system. If there are multiple devices sharing the same IRQ, you should
consult Microsoft technical support for advice.
