Firefly 302 USB 

Devices / Device0

In  the  Devices  section,  users  are  able 

to view and edit the name of any Phonic 

USB Devices connected to the computer.  

The  Device0  menu  offers  device  info  as 

well as a S/PDIF pass through function for 

users to take advantage of.  There is also 

two  driver-integrated  mixers  that  users 

are able to utilize to better customize their 

input/output levels to suit their computer.

Hardware Inputs Mixer

This  software-based  mixer  allows  users 

to adjust levels and routing options of all 

input signals of the Firefly 302 USB.  All 

of the outputs from this mixer can then be 

utilized by DAW and other suitable appli-

cations.
Level  meters  are  incorporated  into  the 

mixing software.  Users are given visual 

depictions of current incoming and outgo-

ing signals from this software mixer.

Software Inputs Mixer

This mixer allows users to monitor and ad-

just the levels (and routing) of the output 

signals from the PC.  Like the Hardware 

Inputs  Mixer,  users  are  able  to  adjust 

volume levels and mute output tracks as 

necessary.  Also like the Hardware mixer, 

level meters are provided on the software 

mixer’s inputs and outputs.
