What is the difference between Microphone (Mic Jack) and Line In Device?
Microphones should not be plugged into a Line-in jack. Most microphones are designed to plug into the “Microphone Input” jack of your computer. Some devices use an external amplifier to increase the signal level of the microphone which should then be plugged into the “Line-in” jack of the computer. The Line In Device is only to be used with 3rd party software products.
