MicroPhone Control

This button controls the "pass-through" feature of the SoundWave 32 audio card.

By selecting "MicOn", everything picked up by the MicroPhone will be amplified and heard through the speaker output.

By selecting "MicOff", MicroPhone input will not be heard through the speaker output.

NOTE:

Selecting "MicOff/MicOn", will not affect MicroPhone recording. It only affects whether or not the MicroPhone input is heard through the speaker output.
