Using the A30 Headset with the MixAmp™ (Fig. A)
Connect the HEADSET CABLE with the 4-pole QD (the single
3.5mm audio jack) to the A30 Headset’s Quick Disconnect.
Make certain that the two halves of the QD are fully inserted
and seated. This special 4-pole connector enables the A30
Headset to blend in microphone functionality with a single
connection when used with the MixAmp™!
Using the A30 Headset with a PC (Fig. B)
Connect the Dual Jack HEADSET CABLE to the Quick
Disconnect on the A30. Plug the microphone and audio
connectors into their corresponding jacks on your PC. Usually
pink (for microphone) and green (for audio). Consult your PC’s
motherboard/sound card manual for further information.
The Dual Jack (PC QD) HEADSET CABLE contains a volume
control on the Quick Disconnect for easy control of the audio
level without the MixAmp™ or an external audio source.
Using the A30 Headset with Standard Audio Sources (Fig. C)
Connect the 4-pole HEADSET CABLE to the A30’s Quick
Disconnect to use them with any device that has a 3.5mm
stereo output like mp3 players or portable gaming systems.
The 4-pole QD combines both microphone and stereo audio
in a single connector making its voice functionality fully
compatible with devices like the Apple iPhone, Sony PSP-
3000 (and newer), most smart phones that feature a 3.5mm
headset port, and of course, the ASTRO Gaming MixAmp™.
Important: This voice functionality won’t interfere with
your portable devices’ audio output (i.e. mp3 players and
portable gaming systems). Simply connect the 4-pole
jack to any 3.5mm socket to use the A30 Headset as
conventional headphones. (You might also want to remove
the MICROPHONE BOOM when you are out in public or on the
road, Commander).
