8. If you need to monitor what you are recording, connect your headphones to this socket. Remember that this
output replicates the mobile device headphone output, so you will hear audio here only with applications
that support real-time input/output pass-through like iRig Recorder.
9. If you use iRig PRE to connect a vocal microphone for vocal performance, you will need to use VocaLive
app that provides high quality effects especially tailored for vocals. In this case, connect your mixer or PA
system to this output socket.

Usage tips

• To avoid having too much noise in the recordings, always set the GAIN properly. If the GAIN is too low,
recordings will be too quite, and when boosted within the apps they will become too noisy. If the GAIN is too
high, recordings will be distorted.
• Be CAREFUL not to turn the phantom power ON with passive ribbon microphones as the current that will
flow into the ribbon element could damage it. When using ribbon mics, turn ON phantom power ONLY if the
microphone specifications clearly say it's needed.
• If you hear feedback issues when using high GAIN settings, lower the mobile device volume with the device
volume buttons.
WARNING: Permanent hearing loss may occur if earbuds or headphones are used at high
volume. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound, which may sound normal but can
be damaging to your hearing. Set your device volume to a safe level before that happens. If you
experience ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use of earbuds or headphones
with your device.
