Windows Vista and Windows 7 – Setup Instructions
Before you begin:
1. Make sure you have the latest version of
EZ Converter
installed. Visit
www.ionaudio.com/ezvc
to download. Install the software program after downloading it
from our website.
2. Once the EZ Converter is installed on your computer, connect your USB Recording
device using the included USB cable to an available USB port on your computer.
TIP:
not all USB ports are created equal. Although most ports will work with
printers and mice, some computer’s ports may not be suitable for use with
recording devices. We recommend connecting directly to a port on your PC,
instead of using USB hubs or splitters. If your desktop PC has USB ports both
on the front and on the back, we recommend using ports located on the back of
the PC.
3. If your product has a
Power
button (some products do not), make sure it is switched to
the
ON
position.
4. Close all programs that are open on your computer.
Setup Procedure:
1. Click
the
Start
button in the lower-left of your screen, and select
Control
Panel

2. In the Control Panel window, double-click
Hardware and
Sound

. The
Sound
Control Panel window will open.
4. At the top of the window, select the

your computer’s audio to come out of.
TIP:
Your computer’s audio outputs may
appear as
Speakers – High Definition Audio
Device
or
Headphones – High Definition
Audio Device
or both, depending on the
hardware installed in your computer. The
exact mane of your sound card will vary from

Some common PC soundcard names are

Click on the device that best matches your desired audio setup.

do NOT choose

used as a recording input, not a playback output. Also, make sure not to choose
