14.AUDIO INPUT: Use this 1/8" stereo mini jack to connect the output from a CD player, MP3 player, laptop, etc., to the ampli- fier. The stereo signal at the Audio Input is summed with the left and right signals in the amplifier just before the USB output and the Master volume control. This allows you to play along with your favorite music. Use the output level control for the signal source to adjust the signal for the proper mix with your guitar.

Note: Depending on your CD player or other signal source, you may need to use an adapter (i.e., two phono jacks to 1/8" stereo plug), available at most electronic stores.

15. USB: The USB (Universal Serial Bus) connector allows you to connect the Profiler Model 5 to a computer so you can record your guitar directly to Tracktion (or your favorite DAW application). Use a standard USB cable (not supplied) to make this con- nection.
