IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read all of these instructions and save them for future reference. Follow all
warnings and instructions marked on the unit.
•
Do not obstruct air vents in the rear panel. Do not insert objects through any
apertures.
•
Do not use a damaged or frayed power cord.
•
Unplug the unit before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only. Do not spill liquid
on the unit.
•
Ensure adequate airflow around the unit to prevent overheating. We recommend
leaving a blank 1U panel above the unit to aid ventilation.
•
Unplug the unit and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions: If the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered
the unit; if the unit has been dropped or the case damaged; if the unit does not
operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the operating instructions.
•
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarised or grounding-type plug. A
polarised plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type
plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wider blade or the third
prong is provided for your safety. When the plug provided does not fit into your
outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
This unit is supplied with an external power supply dependant on the region in which
the TrakMaster Pro is purchased. To avoid the risk of fire, replace the mains fuse only
with the correct value fuse, as marked on the plug. The external power supply unit
contains no user serviceable parts. Refer all servicing to a qualified service engineer,
through the appropriate Focusrite dealer.

1/4" TRS INPUT With a MIC INPUT connected to the XLR connector (ensure nothing is connected to the 1/4" TRS input), the LEVEL control provides +13dB (fully anti-clockwise) to +60dB (fully clockwise) of gain. With a LINE INPUT connected to the 1/4" TRS connector, the gain is adjustable from -10dB (fully anti-clockwise) to +36dB (fully clockwise). -
