This can work with my USB Studio Microphone?

Thank,

@cassetteman1 I can't see any reason why your USB microphone wouldn't work. Double check to make sure you've got the right usb cable to connect the microphone to the DAT, the device has a USB type B connection (you can see it at the 46 second mark in video)

Ok, thank you

I thought that this adapter works with computers! lol

good luck

@cassetteman1 I apologize, I think I misunderstood your question. This will work as an external sound card for a computer, if you use the USB. You can run a USB from the computer to the DAT, then plug speakers/headphones in to the DAT.

I bought a Toshiba 55sl417u LED backlit LCD TV which has only DIGITAL audio outputs. In order to input the audio to the RCA jacks of my Sherwood receiver I bought a small DAC. The DAC seems to have specs that are compatable (20-20KHz response, >80 db s/n, < .1% THD, PCM tosslink input, RCA outputs, etc). However, when hooked up I get only a "sputtering" noise from my stereo. I tried inputting the DAC directly from the optical-out of my cable box (toss link) with the same results.

@partsexpressdotcom Okay, I'll have to check that out. I believe it does give power now come to think about it because I have a dongle plugged into one of the USB ports for streaming with wifi and it powers up.

@cyih8u Check your TV's owner manual to see if the USB port allows for audio output and power draw. Some TVs have USB access but only for firmware updates, etc, and don't always allow power to pass through for other devices. This converter does come with a wall wart though, so if you can't power it via the TVs USB port, a wall plug will do just fine.

Hmm, my TV has USB ports on it. Is it possible to power the DAC with one of those ports while using it to convert the digital optical signal to analog?
