3. FIRST STEPS WITH THE ANALOG HEAT +FX

3.1 CONNECTING THE UNIT

Make sure you place the Analog Heat +FX on a stable support, such as a sturdy table with
sufficient cable space. Before you start connecting the Analog Heat +FX to other units,
make sure all units are switched off.

V DC connector of the Analog Heat +FX unit.
2. Connect the audio source to INPUT L/R.
3. Connect the OUTPUT L/R from the Analog Heat +FX to your mixer or amplifier.
4. To process sound or control the Analog Heat +FX from a computer, connect a USB
cable between the computer and the USB connector of the Analog Heat +FX. You
must also download and install the Overbridge Suite to perform for these actions.
5. If you want to use MIDI to control the Analog Heat +FX, connect the MIDI OUT port
of the device you wish to send data from to the MIDI IN port of the Analog Heat +FX.
The MIDI THRU port duplicates the data arriving at the MIDI IN port, so you can use
it for chaining MIDI units together.
6. Switch on all units. Switch on the Analog Heat +FX by pressing the Power switch
located at the back of the unit.

so that it matches the level of the sound source. (Note that the settings made here only
affects the analog input and not the digital input from Overbridge.) Use the audio input
meter on the screen to monitor your audio input level and follow these steps to set the
input sensitivity level:
1. Connect your sound source to the IN L/R inputs of the Analog Heat +FX and make
sure that the volume of the sound source is as loud as possible.
