If you would like to pass audio from a BR-1200CD to a computer, you have two options:
I. PASSING AUDIO IN REAL-TIME
The BR-1200CD is not an audio interface and cannot pass audio via USB in real-time. The USB functionality of the BR-1200CD is to import and export WAV files as well as backup and recover projects. To pass audio into your computer recording software in real-time from the BR-1200CD, you can connect the stereo RCA LINE OUT jacks of the BR-1200CD into the stereo input of an audio interface.
