simply by connecting the USB cable. T here is no
need to install any special driver sof tware.
NOTE
The USB port of the B9.1ut only serves for
sending and receiving audio data . For MIDI
messages, use the MIDI IN/OUT conn ectors.
To use the B9.1ut as an audio interface for the
computer, connect the USB port of the B9.1ut to
a USB port on the computer. The B9.1ut will be
recognized as an audio interface.
In this condition, the sound of a bass guitar
connected to the INPUT jack of the B9.1ut can
be processed with the effects of the B9.1ut and
then be recorded on the audio tracks of a DAW
(Digital Audio Workstation) software application
on the computer (see Figure 1 below).
When performing playback with the DAW
application, the playback sound from the audio
tracks is mixed with the bass guitar sound
processed by the effects of the B9.1ut and
appears at the OUTPUT jack of the B9.1ut (see
Figure 2 below).
If required, the guitar signal af ter effect
processing can be muted during playback (see
Figure 3 below). For details, see the next section.
For details on recording and playback, refer to
the documentation of the DAW application.
NOTE
• If the DAW application has an e cho back
function (input signal during reco rding is
supplied directly to an output), this mus t be
disabled. If recording is carried out with t he
echo back function on, th e output signal may
sound as if processed by a fl anger effect, or
the direct output signal may soun d delayed.
• Use a high-quality USB c able and keep the
connection as short as possib le.
