[WriteLog] USB sound?

[Larry]

Wow, that's interesting.  The adapter must have an analog to digital to USB
converter.  I'm curious, does it look like a standard audio input device to
Windows?  For example, can you choose it as the 'Preferred device' for sound
recording using the Window's Sound Recorder app?
