6. Driver installation
The Joplin is USB 2.0 Audio compliant. This means that no driver is needed with Apple
computers, nor with Linux-based PC’s. The latter will need ALSA to operate the Joplin.
Windows is presently not compatible with USB 2.0 Audio, so no native support is available.
In this case, M2Tech provides a driver which needs to be installed prior to access the
Joplin via USB.
6.1. Obtaining the driver
The Windows driver for the Joplin is available on the M2Tech website, in the page
dedicated to the Joplin (
www.m2tech.biz/joplin.html ). The driver is contained in self-
extracting file.
6.2. Installing the driver on a Windows-based PC
The procedure is almost the same for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.
Double-click on the 7-Zip folder to automatically extract the files in a directory of your
choice (Figure 4).

Amongst the files extracted is “setup.exe”. Double-click on its icon to launch it and follow
the indications provided by the setup program (Figure 5).
