Yo u’re now ready to begin listening to and working with sound. For more
information on working with sound, see the “Sound” topic of Macintosh
Guide, available in the Guide (h)menu.
Connecting and positioning a microphone
With appropriate software, you can use the Apple PlainTalk Microphone that
comes with some Macintosh computers (or a compatible line-level
microphone) to record your voice or other sounds.
You can’t use the round, omnidirectional microphone supplied with some
other Macintosh models.
Follow these steps to connect and position the microphone:
1Shut down the Macintosh.
2Plug the microphone’s connector into the sound input port (
X
) on the back of the
computer.
3Place the microphone at the top center of the monitor, so that the microphone’s
Apple (
K
) icon is facing you.
