Connect USB cable from here to your computer*

USB - This, of course, is where you connect the supplied USB cable to TonePort GX, with the other end going to your computer’s USB 1.1 or 2.0 port. Note that you should always connect to a separate USB controller channel from other USB audio or MIDI interfaces to provide TonePort GX with the full USB bandwidth. TonePort GX also gets its power from this USB connection, so it should not be plugged into a non-powered USB hub, or operated on the same USB controller channel with un- powered devices. It is also recommended to connect directly into a USB port on your computer and not into a USB hub.

*Note - be sure to always power off or mute your speakers or monitoring setup before connecting and disconnecting the USB cable between TonePort and your computer, as well as before booting up or shutting down your computer if TonePort is already connected. The best practice is to always power on your speakers last, and power them off first when connected to other audio gear to avoid a “pop”.

Line Out/Phones - When connecting TonePort GX as an audio interface for your recording application, this output carries the Master stereo mix from your recording project. If you ‘re using a 3rd-party Audio Interface, these outputs supply the ToneDirect™ magic to your interface or mixer, when using the GearBox application alongside the plug-in. See the ToneDirect™ Monitoring section for more details.

If you want to listen to the audio directly from TonePort GX using stereo headphones, you can also plug them into this 1/8-inch stereo jack. This line out/headphone jack outputs the same signal fed to the Analog Outs on the rear panel of TonePort; the audio from your audio software on the computer, as well as anything plugged into any TonePort input.
