UNPACKING INSTRUCTION
CAUTION! Carefully unpack the box upon receipt. Check the contents to ensure that all parts are present and have been
received in good condition. Notify the shipper immediately and retain packaging material if any parts appear damaged from
shipping or the package itself shows signs of mishandling. Save the package and all packaging materials. If the product must be
returned, it is important that the product is returned in the original factory box and packaging.
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The
arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off until it has reached room temperature.
POWERSUPPLY
The label on the back/under side of the product indicates the mains voltage to which it must be connected. Check that the mains
voltage corresponds to this. Any other voltage than the one indicated may cause irreparable damage to the unit. The unit must
also be connected directly to the mains voltage and no dimmer or adjustable power supply may be used.
Always connect the device to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the device has an appropriate
electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
OVERVIEW
1. INPUT 1 & 2
Combo jack microphone/line input.
2. GAIN 1 & 2
Rotate to adjust the gain of input 1 and input 2.
3. OUTPUT VOLUME LEVEL
Rotate to adjust the output volume level.
4. HEADPHONE OUTPUT
6.3mm headphone output jack.
5. HEADPHONE VOLUME
Rotate to adjust the headphone output volume.
6. AIR 1
Press to enable AIR mode at input 1. AIR mode alters the frequency response of the input stage, boosting the high- and mid
frequencies of your audio.
7. AIR 2
Press to enable AIR mode at input 2. AIR mode alters the frequency response of the input stage, boosting the high- and mid
frequencies of your audio.
8. 48V
Phantom power switch. Enables 48V phantom power at the combo jack microphone input.
9. DIRECT MONITOR
Enables monitoring of input signals (mixed with DAW output) from inputs (ON) or via DAW (OFF).
10. SECURITY LOCK
Use to secure your unit to a suitable structure/surface, if so desired.
11. USB
USB type-c connector to connect to a computer via supplied USB cable.
12. LINE OUTPUT

SETUP
Below setup shows a typical configuration for recording using DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) on Mac or PC. Vocals are
recorded through input 1, instruments can be recorded through input 2 (for example). Playback can be monitored via
headphones (headphone output jack). When using a condenser microphone that is designed to operate on 48 phantom power
voltage, make sure to initiate phantom power mode by pressing the "48V" button. The 48V text will be illuminated.
PLEASE NOTE: before connecting a microphone, please check the specification of that microphone to ensure it is safe to use.
The line output connectors on the rear of the unit are 3-pole (TRS) 6.3mm jack sockets and are electronically balanced.
* The shown example is based on a setup with active speakers. When connecting passive speakers, a separate amplifier is
required. The line output of the unit should then be connected to the amplifiers' inputs.
