Once the MIDI Device is set to MIDIMAN PORTMAN 2x4, the PORTMAN
interface becomes available as a selectable port in the Track/Measure win-
dow of each and every track.
Cakewalk for DOS (Version 4.0 & Later)
Note: The following procedures require a basic understanding of common
DOS commands. These commands are examples only and may not apply
directly to your experience or system. If you do not understand these com-
mands, consult a DOS manual or seek the help of a more experienced IBM
or compatible computer user.
Cakewalk for DOS (Version 4.0 and later only) supports the use of an
installable Port Device (IPD). You will find the PORTMAN IPD on a MIDI-
MAN or Twelve Tone-supplied disk. The filename is “PCP2x4CW.DRV”.
On the MIDIMAN PORTMAN master disk it will be located at the follow-
ing path:
[drive]:\PCP2x4CW.DRV
In order to install the PORTMAN IPD, you will need to copy it to (and then
rename it once it is in) the directory where your CAKEWALK.EXE file is
located. For the purpose of these examples, we will assume that this direc-
tory will be:
C:\CAKEWALK
Note: You may first wish to save (backup) the old MIDI driver that’s
already in the directory by renaming it. You can do this by first changing to
that directory and then typing:
rename midiport.drv midiport.bak [Enter]
Follow these steps to install your Cakewalk for DOS PORTMAN driver:
1. To copy the driver, first change to the directory where pmanpcak.drv is
located and then type:
copy pcp2x4cw.drv c:\CAKEWALK [Enter]
