USB port

Use the included USB cable to connect

this unit to a USB 2.0-compatible

computer.

NOTE

The US-200 obtains power from the host

computer via the USB cable. In rare cases,
a computer’s USB port may not be able to
supply enough power to operate the US-
200.
This is not compatible with USB 1.1 (12

MHz) and cannot be used to connect by
USB 1.1.
This is not compatible with computer

Suspend (Sleep) mode. For this reason,
the unit might not operate properly after
a connected computer is brought out of
Suspend (Sleep). In this case, disconnect
the USB cable once and then reconnect it.

CAUTION

Set this switch to

OFF before turning

this unit’s power on or off (connecting or
disconnecting the USB cable).
Before changing the setting of this switch

to ON or OFF, turn the LEVEL knob to
its minimum level. Depending on the
microphone connected, a loud noise could
occur, which might damage equipment or
harm hearing.
Do not connect or disconnect

microphones when this switch is set to

ON.
Turn this switch on only if you are using

condenser microphones that require
phantom power.
Unbalanced dynamic microphones should

never be connected to phantom-powered
connectors.

Some ribbon mics can be damaged by

phantom power. If unsure, do not supply
phantom power to a ribbon mic.
When this switch is

ON, if the unit is

connected to a computer running on
battery power, the battery will be drained
more quickly.
Do not use phantom power when line

level equipment is connected to an XLR
connector.
