Your new Yahoo! HitClips Downloader can record sounds
and music right off of your computer and the internet
without any special software, or use of a Comm Port. It
plugs right into your external speaker or headphone
output jack.
4. The red light in the middle of the Chip will start to
blink on and off. This indicates that the Downloader
is ready to record.
Note: The Yahoo! HitClips Downloader will record
almost any sound that can be played or heard
through the speakers of your computer, provided
they are played at a high enough volume level. (See
section 6)

2.Plug the built-in input plug into your computer' s
external speaker or headphone jack. If you have
trouble finding this jack, check the user manual for
your computer.

would normally do.

recording when it senses sound being passed through
the system.
Note # 1: Before recording, set your computer's
output volume at about 50% of full.
Note # 2: If the Downloader does NOT start recording,
try turning the output volume, on your computer, up
until it is at a level that activates recording.
Note # 3: Playback sound volume will vary depending
upon the output volume on your computer.
Note # 4: By changing your computer's output
volume, you can change the way your recording
sounds. You can experiment by adjusting the output
volume during recording then playing back your
recording on the player.

light stops blinking and stays on bright red. The
Recordable Chip that comes with the Downloader will
record for approximately 2 minutes. Time may vary
depending on sound quality and complexity of the
sounds being recorded.
