WHAT IS IT? WHAT DOES IT DO?
This unit allows me to record my guitar and/or vocals directly into my Mac. It’s very easy to use and gets great results. I can record two tracks simultaneously if I wish (i.e. guitar + vocals). I plug the guitar and/or mic directly into this box, and then the box attaches to my Mac via the USB port.

WHAT IS IT? WHAT DOES IT DO?
This cable allows me to attach my VOCAL MIC to the USB Interface box (see above). This cable also allows me to run my vocal mic directly into a mixing board for singing into a P.A. system.

WHAT IS IT? WHAT DOES IT DO?
This cable allows me to attach my guitar to the USB Interface, which then channels the sound directly into my computer. If I’m using my acoustic guitar, which has a built-in pickup, I just plug my guitar directly into the interface 
with this 1/4″ cable.
If I’m using my electric guitar, there are two options. I can plug the guitar directly into the interface. Or, I can plug my guitar into a guitar amp, and then plug the guitar amp into the interface. IMPORTANT: if you want to do this, you will need TWO of these cables.
