Audio Passthru - iConnectivity iConnectMIDI2+ Owner's Manual

Audio passThru™

Audio passThru™ is the technology behind the built-in bi-directional digital audio
connection between the two computer devices hooked up to the iConnectMIDI 2+ 's USB
Device ports. It appears to a Mac, Windows, or iOS computer device just like any other
audio interface, but there are two important and unique distinctions.
The first one is that this interface connects to two computers at the same time,
unbeknownst to either one. Second, it doesn't have (or need) analog-to-digital and v.v.
converters, because the source of the audio going over the Audio passThru™ bus is
always a track or instrument plug-in running in a sequencer on one of the computer
devices. (Ergo you will find no mic, line, or instrument jacks on the iConnectMIDI 2+ .)
The iConnectMIDI 2+ can stream up to eight channels of audio (four in each direction),
depending on the sample rate and bit depth setting you choose in the iConnectivity iConfig
software. Its default setting is at the CD standard of 16 bits and a 44.1kHz sample rate.
Please see the explanation in the iConfig software's Audio Info tab for more about these
settings.
