Section 4. Using Your PlexWriter
Figure 18: Connections for Playing Audio Using the Headphone Jack
• Sound board audio: This comes from data files that may be present on a disc,
such as a WAV, WMA or MP3 files, that are transferred from the CD to your
computer via the IDE interface. The sound board translates the data from the
digital files into analog sound. If you do not have a sound board, you will not be
able to hear this form of audio from your PlexWriter.
To listen to music through the computer’s sound board, you can control volume
with the volume control on the Windows Taskbar. You can also mute the sound
on your sound board and listen to music through headphones or self-powered
speakers.
NOTE: The volume control on the front panel of your drive adjusts only the sound
level of the headphone jack. It has no impact on the volume level of the rear panel
audio outputs.
