Getting Started
Congratulations on the purchase of the NuVerb TDM Plug-In. We’re sure you will find the new
features in this software quite useful. If you’ve also purchased the NuVerb TDM Option, you’ll
be able to access a whole new level of system integration.
About the Documentation
In general, this manual should be used in conjunction with the NuVerb User Guide. Many
existing NuVerb features remain unchanged and are explained in detail there. New features,
with notes regarding any changes to NuVerb behavior, are given here. In addition, this manual
contains descriptions of all of the NuVerb programs.
For your convenience, your software package includes an On Line version of the installation
procedures and operational information contained here. An Installer Read Me file is also
provided to alert you to any changes which may have been incorporated since this manual was
printed. Please check this file first to make sure you are informed of any variations, particularly
in the installation procedure.
Customer Support
Fill out and send in your product registration card immediately. As a registered user, you are
entitled to telephone support, and new product information — and we want to keep you up
to date.

System Requirements
The NuVerb Plug-In provides direct control of NuVerb functions from a window within other
TDM-compatible software packages. The Plug-In requires:
• 1 Megabyte of free RAM
• An installed TDM-compatible software application such as Digidesign's Pro Tools
• Lexicon's NuVerb TDM Option.
If you have problems loading Plug-Ins, you may need to increase the memory allocation of the
DAE. To do this, quit Pro Tools (and DAE) and select the DAE icon from the DAE folder (inside
your System folder). Select Get Info from the File menu (or press Command I) to open the
memory allocation window shown.

Installing the Hardware and Software
In order to get your NuVerb TDM option up and running as quickly as possible, and to avoid
damage to your hardware, please follow these instructions carefully.
If you are a first time NuVerb owner, unpack the NuVerb Card and the TDM option first.
Verify that you have all of the items shown on the packing list. Fill out and return your NuVerb
registration and warranty cards. Please take the time now to look over the NuVerb User Guide
before attempting to install the TDM option. This will be time well spent.
Make sure that the Digidesign TDM system is properly installed in your Macintosh or
Digidesign Expansion Chassis before you begin NuVerb installation. If you have not yet
installed the Digidesign TDM system, refer to Section B of the Digidesign TDM Bus Software
User Guide for installation instructions. Once you have successfully installed your Digidesign
TDM system, you can proceed with the NuVerb installation.
If you already have a Digidesign TDM system with NuVerb installed, you will need to
disconnect and remove the NuVerb card(s) from your Macintosh or Digidesign Expansion
Chassis in order to retrofit them with the NuVerb TDM option. Remove the NuVerb card(s)
and place them in the antistatic bag(s) in which they were shipped.
The installation procedure includes:
1. Attaching the NuVerb TDM module to a NuVerb card.
2. Installing TDM-enhanced NuVerb card(s) into your Macintosh.
3. Connecting NuVerb TDM to the Digidesign TDM system via the TDM ribbon cable.

Note
Only Lexicon TDM cards can be used with NuVerb. Cards from other manufacturers are
incompatible and can damage your application hardware.
Precautions
• Be sure your Macintosh is turned off and unplugged.
•Before handling NuVerb cards, NuVerb TDM modules, or other NuBus cards, discharge
any static electricity that may be on your clothes or body by touching a grounded metal
surface, such as the power supply case inside your Macintosh.
•Handle cards only by their edges, as you would a CD. Be careful to avoid touching the pins
on the bottom edge of the cards.
•Save the anti-static bags containing your NuVerb card and NuVerb TDM module. These
special bags prevent static electricity from damaging sensitive electronic components on
the cards. Always store your cards in these anti-static bags when the cards are removed
from the Macintosh.
•Put the anti-static bags containing the cards near your Macintosh to avoid having to walk
around with a card after it is removed from its bag (and generating static electricity).
Depending on your studio setup, installation of NuVerb TDM hardware and software will
probably take about 20 minutes. Please read through the entire procedure before you actually
start to perform the installation.

NuVerb TDM User Guide Installing the Hardware and Software
Attaching the NuVerb TDM module to a NuVerb card
The NuVerb TDM module attaches to your NuVerb card. Only NuVerb cards with an attached
NuVerb TDM module can use the TDM option. NuVerb cards without the TDM module must
use the AES/EBU ports for audio input and output.
1. Place the foam from your NuVerb card package on top of a work surface next to your
Macintosh. (Any flat piece of foam with similar dimensions to the NuVerb card can be
used.)
2. Turn off and unplug your Macintosh.
3. Remove the Macintosh top cover and slot cover(s) of those NuBus slot(s) you’ve selected
for installation. Although the illustrations shown here depict installation in a typical
Quadra/Centris 650-model Macintosh, your installation should be similar. If you are
unsure of how to open and install a NuBus card in your particular Macintosh or Digidesign
Expansion Chassis, please refer to your Macintosh Owner’s Guide or Digidesign Expan-
sion Chassis User Guide.

4. Touch the Macintosh power supply case to discharge any personal static electricity.
5. Remove the NuVerb card from its anti-static bag. Place the anti-static bag on top of the
foam and place the card with its component side facing downward on top of the anti-static
bag. Hold the card only by its edges, and be careful to avoid touching the pins on the
bottom edge of the card.
6. Touch the Macintosh power supply case again to discharge any personal static.
7. Remove the NuVerb TDM card from its anti-static bag. Hold the card by its edges, and
orient it so that the component side faces away from the palm of your hand.
8. With the TDM card in one hand, pick up the NuVerb card in your other hand. Orient the
cards so that the component sides are facing each other. Carefully line up the black
connectors at the top of each card. Firmly press them together until they are fully
connected.
9. Once the cards are mated, place the assembly, with the TDM card on top, on the anti-static
bag. When the cards are properly aligned, the four holes in each card (for the four screws
supplied with the TDM card) are aligned.
