1 IN 1 volume slider
Use to adjust the volume input through the unit's IN1 jack.
2 Input selection
Use to set whether the input signal is handled as “Mono” or
“Stereo”.
Options
“Mono”
When using one mic (connected to the IN1 jack), it will be
treated as input from both “IN 1” and “IN 2”. The audio from
“IN 1” will be heard from both left and right headphone
channels. In most circumstances, select this when using a
mic for a live broadcast, for example.
“Stereo”
Even when using one mic (connected to the IN1 jack), it
will not be treated as being input from both “IN 1” and “IN
2”. It will be treated as only being input from “IN 1”. The
audio from “IN 1” will be heard from the left headphone
channel, and audio from “IN 2” will be heard from the
right headphone channel. Use this if a keyboard or other
stereo audio sources is being input for live broadcasting
or karaoke.
NOTE
When “DAW” mode is selected, if set to “MONO”, this will
automatically be switched to “STEREO (DAW)”.
3 IN 2 volume slider
Use to adjust the volume input through the unit's IN2 jack.
4 PC Audio Out volume slider
Use to adjust the playback volume of Windows Media Player
and karaoke apps.
5 BROADCAST Volume slider
Use to adjust the playback volume of Sound Recorder and
karaoke apps. Use this also to adjust the broadcast volume
with live broadcast apps.
NOTE
• Turn the MONITOR BALANCE knob on the unit all the way
to the right (COMPUTER) to check levels while adjusting the
volume sliders.
• Double-click a volume slider to reset it to its default value.
6 Output selection
Set whether the output signal is handled as mono or stereo.
Options
“Mono”
Only the audio from the left side can be handled when
using some applications. When using an application like
this, audio from the right side cannot be transmitted or
recorded.
Set to Mono to mix both left and right signals to mono
and transmit that sound to the computer.
“Stereo”
Set when the application being used supports stereo.
When set to Stereo, a stereo sound can be transmitted to
the computer.
NOTE
When set to Mono, all stereo input signals will be converted
to mono. This setting receives priority even if the Input
selection ( 2 ) is set to STEREO for mic input.
7 Mic Monitor selection
If the Mic Monitor checkbox has a check (4), sounds from
mics and other input will be mixed with the PC Audio Out
signal and looped back to the computer. If the check (4) is
removed from the Mic Monitor checkbox, sounds from mics
and other sources input through IN 1 and IN 2 will not be
sent to the headphone output.
8 Loopback selection
If the Loopback checkbox has a check (4), the sound
from the computer will be broadcast and output from the
PHONES jack.
If the check (4) is removed from the Loopback checkbox,
the sound from the computer will only be output from the
PHONES jack.
9 External Effects (ASIO)
To use an echo on mics and other signals input to the unit by
using an external effect, check the “External Effects (ASIO)”
checkbox (4).
CAUTION
Depending on the broadcast software settings, the signal
could loop and cause feedback.
NOTE
Even if you have removed the check from the “External
Effects (ASIO)” checkbox (4), the check (4) will automati-
cally be added when you select DAW mode.
0 External Effects switch
When a check (4) is in the “External Effects (ASIO)” checkbox,
this switch will be set to the “External Effects” side and light.
