External Mixer

 can be played through the outputs of external 

boxes or through the digital output of XG DB I. 

The

 allows settings for input and output levels for Wave, Line In, MIC, CD In and 

Auxiliary devices. The output signal of the 

Internal Mixer

 is always played through the Line 

Output on the card. This makes it possible to use the card as an ordinary standard soundcard.
