Monitoring button
Click this button to monitor and loopback recording audio to outputs (PC
speakers). Hence, the recording volume influences the monitoring signals from
the speaker outputs. The audio is mixed into the streams you are playing out from
your PC and all DSP effects is applied to the source, too. A typical benefit is to
apply Dolby Pro-Logic IIx 7.1-ch spreading for your TV audio, CD, MP3, or stereo
game console audio from Wii, Xbox, and PS2/PS3/PSP. To apply Dolby Virtual
Speaker is suitable for a two-speaker environment.

enable “Front Panel Microphone”. For typical low-cost PC microphone, we
recommend that you enable this function.
