Here’s how to make connections and settings to let you sing or play your guitar while listening to audio data
on your computer, and record just the vocal or guitar into your sequencer.

Connections

The sound of the mic connected to INPUT 1 will be recorded in your computer as the left (L) channel. If you
connect a source to INPUT 2, it will be recorded on the right (R) channel.
Connect your guitar to INPUT 2.

Sample rate select switch

Set this to the same sample rate as selected in your recording software.
If you switch the FA-101's sample rate, you must turn the power of the FA-101 off, then on again to get the
setting to take effect.

Input impedance select switch

If you’ve connected a mic to INPUT 2
Select Lo-Z.
If you’ve connected a guitar to INPUT 2
Select Hi-Z.

STEREO/MONO select switch (direct monitor section)

Set this according to whether you want to monitor the input signal in stereo or in monaural.

Direct monitor soft control switch

Turn this on if you want to control input monitoring from ASIO 2.0 compatible software.

Direct monitor volume

This adjusts the balance between the monitor volume and the audio playback volume from your computer.
Adjusting the direct monitor volume will not affect the recording level.

Phantom power switch

If you’re using a condenser mic, turn the phantom power switch on.
* If a device that does not use phantom power is connected, you must turn off the phantom power switch. Failing to do so
may cause malfunction.
