Windows XP recognition instructions

1.  Plug the U2 into the USB port on the computer.

 

(When using a USB hub, check with the hub manufacturer to 

 

be sure the hub supports a device such as a microphone. Plug

 

the microphone directly into the computer’s powered USB 

 

port for optimal performance.)

2.  Allow 30 to 60 seconds for the system software to recognize 
 

the U2. (A series of bubbles will appear by the Windows 

 

toolbar to notify you of a new device.)

3.  In the Start Menu, select Control Panel.

 

4.  Select “Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices”.

 

5.  Select “Sounds and Audio Devices”.

6.  Select the “Audio” tab. Confi rm that under the “Sound 
 

playback” and “Sound recording” sections the “C-Media USB 

 

Headphone Set” is selected. 

 
 

7.  Select the “Volume” tab under the Sound recording heading 
 

and select “Advanced Controls” in the Options menu of this 

 window.

 

8.  Click the “Advanced” button to open the “Advanced Controls 
 

for Wave In” window. Depending upon your system, you 

 

might have the option of selecting “1 AGC” or “Mic boost”.

of the microphone. Use this for recording softer sounds. If you
