Overview Introducing Voice Path Voice Path continuously routes both sides of your conversation to the mic input of your PC (or Mac) sound card. Simply press in the gray button when you are ready to play audio recordings back into the phone line. With the button in, Voice Path will disconnect the microphone from your handset and send audio down the phone line and into your receiver. You will hear the transmit audio as well as the voice from the other end of the call.

Setup Getting Connected Voice Path connects between the handset and the base of your telephone. Follow these simple steps: 1. Unplug the modular handset cord from your telephone base. 2. Using the black handset jumper cord that we have provided, connect the jack of Voice Path to the handset jack on the base of your telephone. 3. Plug your handset cord, and handset (or headset), into the jack on Voice Path. 4. Connect the cable to the mic input on your computer. 5.
Operation Handset Type Switch The three position switch on the back of Voice Path selects the type of microphone that is in the handset of your telephone. When you push in the Record/Play button, Voice Path replaces the handset microphone signal with a circuit that must match the characteristics of the handset microphone. Note: Not all telephones are built alike so we cannot guarantee Voice Path will work with every handset design available. We designed the interface to work with most popular designs.
Operation Record/Playback Button The Record/Playback button selects which signal will be sent down the phone line; the handset microphone, or the cable. Recording (Position: Out) 1. Make certain the Record / Playback button is in the Out position. 2. Then start your recording from your software controls. 3. The level of the audio sent into your PC can be adjusted from the back of the unit. Place a small screwdriver into the hole marked To PC Vol.
FAQs The headset I am currently using goes through an amplifier before it connects to my telephone. Will the Voice Path work with this headset? If the amplifier was designed to connect to any telephone's handset jack then yes. The Voice Path goes between the amplifier and your telephone base.
FAQs provide audio from both sides of your conversation, only the far side. If your telephone is designed to only provide caller audio in the handset, you will have to try another telephone. I have a Voice Path connected between my telephone and computer. I can record conversations to my sound card but cannot send audio (from the PC) down the phone line. What should I do? 1. Connect the cable marked on Voice Path to the line output or speaker output of your sound card.
