LOOPBACK
With the LOOPBACK function turned on, the audio that is input to the iRig Stream Pro from your host via USB is
returned back to the host. The main Level knob will control the overall level that is recorded.
Direct monitoring
When recording an audio signal into your audio software, there is often a slight delay before it reaches the
outputs of the software and iRig Stream Pro. This delay, called latency, is caused by the computer processing
required to convert and record audio. Since this delay can be distracting, iRig Stream Pro provides a direct
monitoring path from the inputs to the outputs, which is activated by the Direct Monitor switch. When Direct
Monitoring is enabled, the input signal is mixed with the output signal from your audio software and routed
directly to the Headphone outputs. This lets you hear the “live” inputs without latency. The Direct Monitor switch
has no effect on what is being recorded by your software. When using the Direct Monitor feature, make sure any
software monitoring option for direct (or “low latency”) monitoring is disabled. Disabling low latency monitoring
prevents “double-monitoring” of input audio signals when using the Direct Monitoring feature. When “double-
monitoring” occurs, there will be an increase in volume and an undesirable “phasing” sound. For more details
about its monitoring function, refer to the documentation for your audio software.
