HEADPHONE - Use this terminal for connecting a headphone with a 3.5 mm plug. Audio signals via
USB can be listened to.
v
MIC - Microphone input terminal for connecting a microphone with a 3.5 mm plug.
By turning the level knob the microphone amplifier switches on - indicated by Mic-LED
- and can be adjusted for optimum level. The microphone signal will be send
via
USB
to a
connected
computer.
The microphone and headphone section is supported up to 48 kHz sample rate and
is for USB sound system use
only
. Microphone signals can be send to computer via
USB. Audio signals via USB from computer can be listened by headphone. A common
use for this section is internet telephony.
