Once you have set up your TrakPak, try out some of these settings. Remember that different sounds
require different use of a microphone and pre amplifier, so these settings should only be used as a
starting point. The best way to get good sounds is to use you ears! The output gain setting is not
shown as it's setting depends on connected equipment.

Setting hints from the designer...
dB Input Meter

Input Gain : Always try to run the input gain high, i.e. just lighting all the
lights on the Pro Channel with the compressor switched out. Use this to
get your setting, then add compression as needed. The level on the meter
will drop, but the input amp will be working at the same level.
Compression release : Compression is more noticeable on the slow attack
Q
setting and short release settings.
dB Input Meter
Enhancer : Take care not to over use the enhancer, you can always add

enhancement later in the mix, but you cannot take it off!
Output gain : The output gain is always the last control to set. It is the
only control that will not alter the sound of the Pro Channel in any way.

For electric bass and guitar,

better results can be

achieved (than a direct
recording) by using the
JM47 Meekrophone to mic
a cabinet when played
LOUD. Use similar settings
as shown but with much
less input gain. The JM47
may also be used with the
10dB pad to reduce output
level if necessary.
