Direct monitoring
When recording an audio signal into your audio software, there is often a slight delay before it reaches the
outputs of the software and iRig Pro DUO. This delay, called latency, is caused by the computer processing
required to convert and record audio. Since this delay can be distracting, iRig Pro DUO provides a direct
monitoring path from the inputs to the outputs, which is activated by the Direct Monitor switch. When Direct
Monitoring is enabled, the input signal is mixed with the output signal from your audio software and routed
directly to both the Line and Headphone outputs. This lets you hear the “live” inputs without latency. The Direct
Monitor switch has no effect on what is being recorded by your software. When using the Direct Monitor feature,
make sure any software monitoring option for direct (or “low latency”) monitoring is disabled. Disabling low
latency monitoring prevents “double-monitoring” of input audio signals when using the Direct Monitoring feature.
When “double-monitoring” occurs, there will be an increase in volume and an undesirable “phasing” sound. For
more details about its monitoring function, refer to the documentation for your audio software.
Connecting microphones
Always connect microphones to iRig Pro DUO with XLR-to-XLR balanced cables. This will ensure a pristine and
clean performance from your microphone with iRig Pro DUO.
NOTE: In your audio software, select the appropriate iRig Pro DUO input (1 or 2) as the source of the track you
will be recording to. Adjust the channel gain knob until you have a sufficient audio signal without clipping.
