native audio Pass-thru

English to French Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng
Hello all,

I'm in trouble with "native audio pass-thru". I found in the TM of the customer "interface audio" but the context is different and I'm not sure this would fit in my sentence. Can anyone confirm or not?

Context: "Native audio Pass-Thru mode allows you to listen to your headphones without batteries; they're only needed when you use active noise cancellation or want enhanced audio output"

Many thanks in advance

mode audio direct/non-traité

Basically, you can listen to the sound coming out of your source without the signal having to go through the processing stage of these headphones. In that case, it all works like regular headphones and it doesn't require additional power (it works without batteries).

Some manufacturers and retailers use "natif/native" in French in their literature instead of "direct". I guess it's a question of choice. In fact, I think I have found how this very product is described on the Walmart.ca site (not much of a translation!) in ref. 1.
Ref. 2 shows "mode audio direct" being used for another piece of audio equipment.
