5. GETTING STARTED

5.1 SETTING UP AND STARTING

Make sure you place the Octatrack MKII on a stable support, such as a sturdy table, with

sucient space for the cables. Make sure to switch o all devices before you connect the

Octatrack MKII to other devices.

1. Plug the supplied DC adapter to a power outlet and connect the small plug to the

12 V DC connector of the Octatrack MKII.

2. Connect the MAIN OUT L/R from the Octatrack MKII to your mixer or ampliﬁer.

3. If you want to use MIDI, connect MIDI OUT from the Octatrack MKII to the MIDI IN

of the device you wish to send data to. Connect the MIDI IN of the Octatrack MKII

to the MIDI OUT of the device you wish to receive data from. The MIDI THRU port

“echoes” the data arriving at the MIDI IN port, and is used for chaining multiple MIDI

units together.

4. Switch on all units.
