Connecting to a video game console

Here’s an example of how to connect the devices when you want to hear the game audio from a video game console and the voice chat audio from a tablet/smartphone at the same time.

To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.
Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the unit on/off. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

Connect your mic, headphones, tablet or other external equipment to this unit.
Set the USB connection settings switch to “CONSOLE”.
Set the [GAME EFFECTS] setting switch to “USB”.
After booting up your video game console, use the included USB cable to connect the video game console to the USB port of this unit.
The unit automatically turns on, and the channel indicators on the top panel light up.
Turn on your external equipment.
Adjust the volume on this unit to ensure a listenable volume balance while testing the sound from the video game console, voice chat and mic.

A computer is required to use the BRIDGE CAST app.
