I can’t hear sound, but AMON SE is

connected properly

When AMON SE is connected to your PC 
properly and the driver is installed trouble 
free, you can see, that the AMON SE logo 
on its control panel started to glow. If you
do not hear any sound output during 
playback of audio files or video clips, then 
please check the AMON SE has been
selected as the default audio device for 
your OS. Open 

Start > Control Panel > 

Sound

  and check whether AMON SE has 

been properly configured as seen here.

5. FAQ

1.

 

AMON SE is not recognized by your computer.

AMON SE is specified for generic USB 2.0 port at 500 mA minimum power output. Some USB 2.0 ports
on certain computers do not meet the minimum requirements. If you are using a USB hub, that can also 
cause problems. In case you encounter unexpected disconnections or fail to connect AMON SE 
completely, we strongly suggest you to use the included USB 2.0 cable and 

plug it directly into your 

computer’s USB port on the motherboard.

2.

 

AMON SE’s control panel didn’t launch automatically.

When the installation of control panel was completed, the AMON SE control panel icon will be created
on your windows system tray. If there are already many other icons allocated on your system tray, it 
might be hidden automatically by Windows. Otherwise opening 

Start > All Programs > INFRASONIC 

AMON SE > > AMON SE Control Panel

 might be the solution.

3.

 

Connecting coaxial output to digital monitor speakers

Please make sure your monitors are compatible with SPDIF output and support coaxial digital input. 
Please use coaxial cables as seen below for the connection between AMON SE and your monitors.

Please note

: zero latency monitoring is available only at the analog outputs.

4.

 

What is Stereo Mix for ?

Stereo Mix feature enables AMON SE to mix down the audio output of your WDM applications on
Windows® and the guitar or microphone input simultaneously. With this feature, you can easily record 

your guitar/microphone input and sound played back by Windows® audio driver together. It makes 

recording or IP broadcasting possible with ease. Stereo Mix is enabled simply by the click of a button:

<STEREO MIX>

5. About Latency and Buffers

When converting audio information to digital and back to analog, the audio driver needs to sore the data

in a temporary buffer, then sent to and processed by the CPU. The higher the buffer size, the longer it 

takes for a signal to finally arrive at the output as audio. You might experience this as delayed 
response between hitting a key on a controller which controls music software on your PC and hearing 
the sound at the output. Lower latency needs more CPU processing and it might causes some noise 
during your workprocess. In this case, you should adjust the level of latency properly depending on your 
PC specifications. 

You cannot change the latency during audio processing and you might encounter an 

alert message as seen on the screenshot below.

 If you need to adjust the latency setting, please stop 

your current work, close all of your audio applications and then change the latency setting to the desired 
value.
