AM1204FX USBR Features

Computer Connection

By simply connecting the USB cable provided along with your AM1204FX USBR to the device and your Personal Computer or Laptop,
you are able to send DVD quality (16-bit stereo, with a 48 kHz sampling rate) signal to and from your mixer. By doing this, you are actually
turning your AM1204FX USBR into a highly useful plug'n'play soundcard for your computer.
The USB sends an audio stream of the Main Left and Right (record out) signal of your mixer to the computer. You can use almost any
dedicated Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software to record the signal from the AM1204FX USBR mixer. You can also set the mixer as
your default audio device.
The USB interface also returns the audio signal from your computer back to the 2T Returns, the signal of which is controlled by the
2T / USB Return control. If there are input signals from both the USBR interface and the 2T Return, the two signals are combined and
controlled simultaneously by the 2T return control.
