Connecting to your computer
1. Plug the USB cable into the Duo (fig 1) and then into your computer's USB port (fig 2).
The Duo serves as both your audio input device (microphone) and audio output device (speaker).
NOTE: Connecting your PC's loudspeakers (or headphones) to the 3.5mm stereo port (fig 3) will disable the internal speaker. While the internal speaker is disabled when using this connection, the internal microphone is still operational.
When the Duet is powered, a blue light will illuminate through the button on top of the unit, indicating that the unit is on and operating.

2. Open the Audio Panel (Windows)
Double click the Volume Control icon appearing on the lower right hand side of your PC monitor (fig 4). You can also find this window by clicking on “Start”, “Control Panel”, “Sound Speech and
Audio Devices”, “Sounds and Audio Devices”, and selecting the Audio panel.

3. Adjust Audio Settings
At the bottom of the Microphone bar check the Mute box (fig 5a). Bring the “Wave” slide all the way up (fig 5b), and bring the “Speaker” slide one notch below full volume (fig 5c). These slides will affect the volume level of your speaker - adjust to your preference.
Now that the playback levels are set, click the “Options” menu; go to “Properties” check the Recording bullet and click OK (fig 6). Set the playback bar level at 1-2 notches below the full scale (fig 7). This controls the recording level (how you will sound to the other side). Adjust the volume in this window if you sound too loud/soft to your audience.

Operating the Duo

• Push this button again, and the light becomes steady indicating that the microphone is open and live. Pushing the Up Arrow and Down Arrow buttons increases/decreases the unit’s volume. One long push on each of the buttons will bring the volume all the way up or down instantaneously.
• You can also control the input / output signal levels using your PC’s volume controls (this will only affect you VOIP signal levels) or your telephone volume control (will only affect your telephone’s communication signal levels).
