[Mic Rocker] Switch; [Game/Chat Sound] Balancer - Plantronics RIG User Manual

Master volume control

[MIC ROCKER] switch

The [MASTER VOLUME] dial controls the sum volume level of all audio devices connected to the
RIG mixer.
Turn the [MASTER VOLUME] dial to the right to increase volume and to the left to decrease
volume.
CAUTION
In the center of the RIG Mixer, the large, glossy paddle controls many elements of the audio
experience. Not only does the [MIC ROCKER] switch control which device your microphone
transmits (Tx) to—like the connected console or mobile device—it also shapes what you hear.
For example, when the [MIC ROCKER] switch is deployed to the Game Mode (glows orange), the
[GAME/CHAT SOUND] balancer on the right side becomes active, and controls the balance
between game sound and game chat. Additionally, the microphone is only active to the game
chat (ex. Xbox LIVE, Skype, etc.), and muted to connected mobile devices. However, mobile
audio (Rx) can be heard, and the level controlled by the [GAME/MOBILE SOUND] balancer.
When the [MIC ROCKER] switch is deployed to Mobile Mode (glows blue), the [GAME/MOBILE
SOUND] balancer on the left side is active, and controls the balance between mobile sound and
game sound. The microphone is now only active to connected mobile devices, and transmission
is MUTED to game chat (Xbox LIVE, Skype, etc.). In the default configuration, the RIG Mixer also
mutes incoming (Rx) game chat.
In summary, the [MIC ROCKER] switch performs a
several things at once.
For example, switching the [MIC ROCKER] switch from Game Mode (orange) to Mobile Mode
(blue) causes the following to occur:
• Microphone transmission (Tx) to mobile connected device is
• Microphone transmission (Tx) to Game chat (Xbox LIVE, Skype, etc) is
• Incoming Game chat (Rx) is
• [GAME/CHAT SOUND] balancer now actively controls the Game Sound volume. This enables a
lower setting of game sound, if desired, when taking a phone call.
