USING POWERWAVE WITHOUT A COMPUTER
The PowerWave can be used as an amplifier without connecting it to a computer. Follow
the above instructions, but do not connect the USB Cable. Obviously, you won’t be able
to use software controls, but the PowerWave can be used in this manner as a “Mr.
Microphone™” or stand-alone amp for your CD player, iPod, etc.
RECORDING AND INPUTS
Recording from a turntable or tape deck to a computer
Recording into your computer will
require recording software (not
furnished with the PowerWave). Third
party applications are typically better
suited for this than simple recording
applications found on the computer,
and we again strongly encourage you to
familiarize yourself with the operation
of your recording software and your
computer system. There are so many
varied uses and compatible operating
systems for PowerWave, there's no
single program we can instruct you to
use, but we can instruct you in how to
set up the basic PowerWave hardware.
Hardware Required
ß Cable - at least a few feet
long, with two RCA male
connectors on each end
ß Turntable
ß Amp/Receiver - for the turntable
ß Tape Deck
Note: Turntables require pre-amplification and a special equalization curve (called the RIAA curve). You’ll
need the receiver/amp that you would ordinarily use with your turntable, since you can’t connect it directly
to the PowerWave.
