* We recommend using one input jack (i.e., either the LINE jack or the MIC/GUITAR jack) at a time.
If devices are connected to both jacks at the same time, the sound input via both jacks is mixed
together, but the DUO-CAPTURE cannot adjust the balance of the mix.
Set the [Hi-Z] button and the [INPUT GAIN] button as described below depending on the audio
device that is connected.

Note
When recording a musical instrument such as a guitar, we recommend turning on the input
monitor (p. 8). You can listen to the instrument’s output directly without passing the audio signal
through the computer. When the input monitor is turned o, the instrument’s audio signal passes
through the computer, therefore the sound may be delayed. If sound is doubled when the [INPUT
MONITOR] button is set to “ON,” set the [INPUT MONITOR] button to “OFF (AUTO).”
* Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This
can be remedied by:
1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers.
3. Lowering volume levels.
