Pro-Ject Audio Systems ESSENTIAL III Instructions For Use & Warranty page 13

Connection to the amplifier
The record player has gold plated female RCA phono sockets (14) and possibility to choose between Phono
and LINE output. With LINE OUT on, you can use a line input (such as AUX, CD, Tuner, Tape or Video) on
your amplifier. With PHONO OUT on, you can use your own phono pre-amplifier (sometimes labelled gram,
disc or RIAA).
Take care to connect the left and right channels correctly. The right channel is usually marked red, the
left channel black or white. The earthing wire of the tonearm lead should be connected to the earth
terminal on your amplifier (if provided).
Connecting to a Computer
Connect the USB-output of the unit to a free USB-socket on your computer and turn it on/make sure it
is powered on.
The "new hardware found assistant" will automatically detect the unit and announces it as a Microphone
USB audio codec. There is no need to install a driver manually.
After installation, one setting has to be done. For example - Windows 7
Control Panel Sound
Advanced: set to 2 channel, 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)
Please note: Connection should be made to an USB-socket of your computer directly. Connecting
to USB-hubs or switches can cause problems.
Recording Programme
In case you do not have a recording programme installed on your computer, you may download one free
from the Internet. Recording programmes may be found by searching Google.
In the menu of the recording programme, source or input may have to be set to Microphone USB audio
codec.
Please be aware that downloads from the Internet are made entirely at your own risk. Under no
circumstances can we carry responsibility or provide support for third-party software products
sourced from the internet or for any damage or problems arising from the use thereof. All
downloads should be checked with an up-to-date anti-virus programme. License fees may be
applicable.
