No, someone disconnected the microphone and was still able to
record an audio CD.  Here's an excerpt from Apple's data sheet
for the AppleCD 300:

	... It not only plays standard audio CDs, but
	can also transfer CD digital audio data via
	the SCSI bus to your Macintosh for further
	editing.

	FORMATS SUPPORTED
	o   CD digital audio data via SCSI

Sounds like direct reading of data from audio CDs to me.
