USB Audio Interface
The XB-14 is equipped with a stereo bi-directional USB 1.1 compliant audio CODEC. It is fully compliant with USB2
ports and uses standard Windows and MAC Core Audio Drivers. In other words, plug it in and your computer will find
it and be able to transfer audio to and from the USB device.
You will need some form of audio software running on your computer for playback/recording or a voice over internet
phone, but on a basic level, you can use your computers media player to play straight to the XB-14 device.
Just a couple of points to look out for:
Windows XP/Vista:
When you plug in your XB-14 USB interface to your computer, if the volume level is low or inaudible, check the device
volume in control panel/Sounds and Audio Devices/Volume. Set the volume to High.
Windows 7:
At present, Windows 7 treats the USB audio device as a microphone source instead if a line input, so set the device
volume level much lower, we found setting to 3 is ideal.
