Using Internal and External Microphones
The internal microphone is disabled when an electret condenser
microphone with a 3.5-mm plug is plugged into the microphone
line-in jack.
IMPORTANT: A mono electret condenser microphone in the mono
microphone jack is acceptable, but the left channel will be
recorded on both the left and right channels. A dynamic
microphone will not achieve the recommended sensitivity.
Using Internal and External
Speakers/Headphones
External speakers:
■ Provide more separation for the left and right audio channels.
■ Produce more volume with amplified speakers.
■ Produce higher quality sound.
CAUTION: Use only a 3.5-mm stereo plug in the stereo
speaker/headphone jack. A mono plug can result in damage to the
computer.
The internal speaker is disabled when external speakers or
headphones are connected to the speaker/headphone line-out jack.
!
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury to hearing, check
the volume level of software applications before you put on
headphones.
