Software For The SignaLink ™ |
This page contains links to many different programs that can be used with the SignaLink interface. Tigertronics in no way endorses or supports any of the programs listed here. We have compiled this list only to help you in locating programs that are known to work with sound card interfaces. Most programs work very well and provide excellent performance, but as you should expect, some programs will work better than others and some will not work at all with certain computer / sound card configurations. We recommend that you download and evaluate several programs to determine which ones work best for you.
If you have questions about a specific program, or if you have trouble getting it to work with your system, then you will need to contact the author of the program directly for help. Questions or problems with the operation of the SignaLink should of course be directed to our Technical Support Department.
The programs on this page are listed in alphabetical order by program name. To the right of each program name you will find information about the program, such as the modes and Operating Systems supported. To help you find what you are looking for, we recommend that you use your web browsers "Find" feature (Netscape/Mozilla users press "CRTL-F") to search this page for specific "key words". These keywords can be the mode that you are interested in (PSK, MT63, etc.), the program name (or any part of it), the operating system you want to use, etc. When you find a program that you would like to download, simply click on the program name. You will then be transferred automatically to the authors web site or another page where the program can be downloaded.
We have found that most communication programs that work in Windows XP, ME and 2000 also work just fine in Windows 7 and Windows Vista. However, most programs cannot access the Windows software volume controls properly. Because of this, we suggest that you access the software volume controls through Windows instead of your program's "Adjust Waterfall Drive" or "Adjust Transmitter Drive" (or similarly worded) menus. Instructions for doing this can be found on our SignaLink Support page. If you find that a particular program isn't working properly and/or provides error messages such as "Sound card already in use", or if you cannot find the SignaLink's "USB Audio Codec" sound card listed in the program's "Setup" page, we'd suggest running the program in "Administrator Mode". This can be done by right-clicking the programs shortcut/icon and selecting "Run in Administrator Mode".
NOTE: Program's that we have tested in Windows 7 and Vista, or that customers have reported as working fine in these operating systems will be marked accordingly in each program's list of compatible operating systems. If you do not see Windows 7 or Vista listed, please try it using the above tips as it will likely work just fine.
