Connecting to a Computer

Connect the USB-output of the unit to a free USB-socket on your computer and turn it on/make sure it is
powered on.

The “new hardware found assistant“ will automatically detect the unit and announces it as a Microphone USB
audio codec. There is no need to install a driver manually.
After installation, one setting has to be done. For example - Windows 7

operating system:



Control Panel  Sound  Recording  Microphone USB Audio CODEC  Properties 

Advanced: set to 2 channel, 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)

Please note: Connection should be made to an USB-socket of your computer directly. Connecting to

USB-hubs or switches can cause problems.

Recording Programme

In case you do not have a recording programme installed on your computer, you may download one free from
the Internet. Recording programmes may be found by searching Google or Yahoo.

In the menu of the recording programme, source or input may have to be set to Microphone USB audio codec.
Please be aware that downloads from the Internet are made entirely at your own risk. Under no
circumstances can we carry responsibility or provide support for third-party software products sourced
from the internet or for any damage or problems arising from the use thereof. All downloads should

be checked with an up-to-date anti-virus programme. License fees may be applicable.
