MicroTrack II < Channels: User Guide · · S tereo: The Stereo option causes MicroTrack II to record both the left and right inputs into a stereo file This is the default setting for MicroTrack II Mono: This option causes MicroTrack II to record only the left channel of audio instead of both 11 < Link L+R Gain: This is a simple on/off menu selection When this option is set to on, the recording levels of inputs L and R will be matched If you use the left or right [LEVEL] buttons to adjust the recording level of one of the inputs, the other input will automatically be matched to the same level This is especially useful when making stereo recordings as this setting will preserve the stereo image When this option is turned off, the input levels of the channels will become independent This option can be enabled (On) or bypassed (Off) When enabled, the analog input limiter prevents digital distortion (clipping) in your recordings, which comes in handy when recording sources with a wide dynamic range, such as drums or a gunshot The limiter will ensure that the initial attack (transient) of these sounds does not exceed the headroom of MicroTrack II The analog limiter attenuates signal peaks above 1dBFS before they are converted to digital This gives MicroTrack II greater gain-reduction capabilities than the digital limiters found in other recorders Also, while not intended to replace proper input level settings, the limiter can be helpful when recording with little or no time to set input levels If your recording levels are higher than they should be, the limiter will ensure that you get a clip-free recording < Limiter: Options Menu Backlight This menu sets the automatic shutoff time for the MicroTrack II backlight Since the backlight drains more battery power, you have the ability to automatically turn the light off to maximize your battery life When set to "Always off, " the backlight will never turn on When "Always on" is selected, the back light will be on whenever MicroTrack II is powered on The other three settings available on this menu determine the amount of time the backlight will stay on after the last control is pressed on MicroTrack II For example, if "5 sec" is selected, the backlight will turn on any time a button is pressed on MicroTrack II The back light will then turn off 5 seconds after the last button is pressed N OTE: If the dimmer switch on the side of MicroTrack II is set to the Off position, the backlight will never turn on no matter what setting is selected in this menu. Contrast This setting adjusts the contrast of the MicroTrack II display Press up or down on the [NAV] wheel to adjust this value Higher values result in a darker display Press in on the [NAV] wheel when finished MicroTrack II Playback EQ User Guide 12 This menu provides access to the six EQ curves built into MicroTrack II These curves affect playback only--all recordings are made without EQ To activate an EQ preset, use the [NAV] wheel to select the curve, then press in to activate it The EQ has the following settings: 1 Normal: This defeats the EQ and provides flat playback response 2 Bass Boost: Increases the low frequencies during playback 3 Bass Reduce: Decreases the low frequencies during playback 4 Treble Boost: Increases the high frequencies during playback 5 Treble Reduce: Decreases the high frequencies during playback 6 Bass and Treble Boost: Increases both the low and high frequencies during playback Scrub Audio This is an on/off setting that allows you to hear audio as you rewind and fast-forward through an audio file When set to on, you will be able to hear bits of the file as you seek When off, MicroTrack II will be silent while seeking Rec Time Display This option dictates how MicroTrack II computes the remaining recording time that is shown on the LCD Display in the Record and Record Pause States CF cards and Microdrives with a capacity of more than 512 MB use the FAT 32 file system This file system has an inherent 2GB limit on file size Thus, MicroTrack II may show a shorter record time available, even if there are more than 2GB available on the CF media The Rec Time Display settings are: · ime until 2GB: This setting will compute the remaining recording time available based on a 2GB size (or T the currently available space on the CF media if less than 2GB) · ime on Media: This setting will compute the total available recording time remaining based on the free T space on the CF media When recording WAV files, MicroTrack II helps circumvent the 2GB file size limitation by automatically creating an additional WAV file once the 2GB limit has been reached and continuing to record to the new file This ensures that you can record for a long period of time and the overall capacity of the media becomes the time limit When recording an MP3 file, the recording will stop when a 2GB file size is reached, and the recorded 2GB MP3 will be saved Record Button This option will set the behavior of the Record Button The settings are: · Record: This setting causes MicroTrack II to enter the Record State when the Record button is pressed · ecord/Pause: This setting causes MicroTrack II to enter the Record Pause State when the Record R button is pressed This allows the user to set recording levels before starting to record Pressing the Record button a second time, or pushing in on the [NAV] wheel starts the actual recording. Verify Delete This is a simple on/off menu preference that enables or disables the delete confirmation message When this feature is on, you will be asked to confirm a file delete any time you press the [DEL] key This helps prevent accidental erasure of files you wish to keep When this feature is off, files will be deleted as soon as the [DEL] button is pressed MicroTrack II System Menu Connect to PC User Guide 13 This menu option is used to place your MicroTrack II in "host mode, " effectively turning MicroTrack II into a USB Compact Flash card reader This allows quick and easy transfer of audio and firmware files between your computer and MicroTrack II While MicroTrack II is in host mode, it cannot play or record audio files The screen will simply display the "MAudio" logo and USB icon to indicate it is in host mode CAUTION: It is suggested that you close the connection from the computer BEFORE disconnecting the MicroTrack II USB cable or exiting host mode on MicroTrack II.

User Guide 16 MicroTrack II is an easy-to-use, portable audio recorder Its primary function is to create high-quality recordings that can be transferred easily to a computer As such, the steps for operating MicroTrack II are few and simple to understand In essence, MicroTrack II has two functions: recording audio files and playing audio files Because a file needs to be recorded before it can be played back, we will explain the recording process first, followed by playback and file management functions Recording To begin recording a new audio file, connect an audio source to MicroTrack II, select the proper input source, select your recording format and resolution, adjust your recording levels, then initiate the recording MicroTrack II will automatically assign a name to the file in the format "FILExxxx eee" where xxxx is a number from 0001 to 9999 and eee is either "wav" or "mp3 " The procedure is outlined below: 1 2 3 Using the [+48] switch on the side of MicroTrack II, turn off phantom power Turn down the input gain of MicroTrack using the [LEVELS] buttons on the front panel Connect an audio source to MicroTrack II This can be any one of the following: < a mono or stereo dynamic, or electret microphone connected to the 1/8" input or two professional microphones to the 1/4" TRS inputs Because most professional microphones have XLR connectors, you may need to use XLR-to-TRS cables or adapters to make your connections a mono or stereo line-level source to the 1/4" TRS inputs a digital source connected to the S/PDIF input < one < < 4 5 6 Select the INPUT SOURCE

MicroTrack II Use the [MENU] button and [NAV] wheel to select "Record Settings" > "Bits " Select the appropriate bit rate and press the [NAV] wheel in again to make your selection If needed, select PHANTOM POWER If you are using condenser microphones that require phantom power, turn on the [+48V] switch on the side of MicroTrack II Note that phantom power should be disengaged while connecting or disconnecting microphones to prevent damage to the microphone's internal electronics Enable INPUT MONITORING This will allow you to hear incoming signal on the RCA and 1/8" audio outputs while MicroTrack II is recording or is in the Record Pause State This option is enabled by default, but you can manually adjust it by using the [MENU] button and the [NAV] wheel to select "Record Settings" > "Input Monitor" Select "On" and press in on the [NAV] wheel to activate 7 8 9 MicroTrack II 10 Set input levels appropriately for this source < Press User Guide 17 [REC] At this point, MicroTrack II will either begin to record a file, or will enter the Record Pause State, depending on the Record Button setting found in the Options menu (See the Record Button section of the Options Menu portion of this User Guide for further information this settings ) Now play the loudest sound you wish to record If a file is being recorded, you will be able to delete the file as soon as you are done, if you

recording a WAV file, and your recording exceeds the 2GB file size limit of CF or Microdrive media, an additional file will automatically be created with virtually no time lost between files When recording an MP3 file, the recording will stop when a 2GB file size is reached, and the recorded 2GB MP3 will be saved Adding Markers to a WAV Recording: If the [MENU] button is pressed while MicroTrack II is recording a WAV file, the Record icon will change from solid to outline for 0 5 seconds and a marker will be dropped at that location in the WAV file When imported into Pro Tools, or other audio editing programs that recognize Broadcast Wave Files (BWFs), regions or cue points will be created for each marker If your specific audio editing program does not recognize the extra data contained in BWF files, it will still read the recorded audio as a WAV file Note: Markers follow the Broadcast Wave Format (BWF) standard. BWF files are files stored in WAV format that contain additional embedded data beyond basic WAV audio information, such as position markers. The audio software you are using on your computer must be capable of reading BWF information to take advantage of this feature. If your software does not recognize BWF data, the file will be treated as a standard WAV file and the markers will be ignored. This feature is useful for journalists--they can place a marker before each question during an interview. It is also great for recording bands--markers can be placed between each song. Or, if gathering sound effects, a marker can be placed before each noise (as opposed to starting and stopping recording for each individual sound). N OTE: The [MENU] button is without function while recording in MP3 format. MicroTrack II Playback Now that a file has been recorded, you can play it back to check the recording. 1 User Guide 18 Connect the outputs of MicroTrack II so you can hear the playback You can use any combination of the following: < < Plug a pair of headphones into the 1/8" jack on MicroTrack II Connect the RCA outputs to an amplifier or mixer 2 3 4 Use the [MENU] button and [NAV] wheel to navigate to the "Files" menu Use the [NAV] buttons to select a file to play Press in on the [NAV] wheel to begin playback of the current file While an audio file is playing, you can: < Adjust the playback volume using the [VOLUME] button Delete the file by pressing the [DEL] button Immediately begin recording a new file by pressing the [REC] Button Loop playback of the file using the procedure explained in the Loop Playback section below Fast-forward through the file by holding the [NAV] wheel down Skip ahead to the next file by pressing down on the [NAV] wheel to the beginning of a file by pressing up on the [NAV] wheel If you are within the first three seconds of a file, pressing up will skip back to the previous file Rewind the file by holding up the [NAV] wheel Pause playback by pressing in on the [NAV] wheel Press in again to resume playback < < < < < < Return < < Additional [NAV] wheel functions when an audio file is paused or stopped include: < < Return to a previous file by pressing up on the [NAV] wheel Resume playback by pressing in on the [NAV] wheel MicroTrack II Loop Playback User Guide 19 MicroTrack II will allow you to loop a section of an audio file This can be useful when practicing parts or studying dictation The method for looping a file requires setting a start and end point, and is accomplished as follows: 1 2 3 4 To engage Loop Playback, press and hold the [MENU] button for over 2 seconds while the file is playing The loop icon will appear on the lower left of the screen Press the [MENU] button once when you reach the start point of the loop A small "+" will appear to the left of the loop icon Press the [MENU] button a second time when you reach the end point of your loop The section will begin to loop immediately A small "+" will appear to the right of the loop icon Pressing the [MENU] button a third time will exit loop mode While using Loop Playback mode, you can: < < < < < < < < Adjust the playback volume using the [VOLUME] button Delete the file by pressing the [DEL] button Immediately begin recording a new file by pressing the [REC] Button Fast-forward through the file by holding the [NAV] wheel down Skip ahead to the next file by pressing down on the [NAV] wheel Return to the beginning of a file by pressing up on the [NAV] wheel Rewind the file by holding up the [NAV] wheel Pause playback by pressing in on the [NAV] wheel Press in again to resume playback Additional [NAV] wheel functions when an audio file is paused in Loop Playback mode include: < < Return to a previous file by pressing up on the [NAV] wheel Resume playback by pressing in on the [NAV] wheel MicroTrack II 5 - Using MicroTrack II with a Computer MicroTrack II will interact with a computer for multiple purposes < < < User Guide 20 MicroTrack II will charge its battery with power it receives from the computer The contents of the CF card or Microdrive can be transferred to the computer Files can be uploaded from a computer to MicroTrack II Please refer back to the section titled "Connect to PC" to learn how to properly connect the device Charging MicroTrack II from the Computer MicroTrack II will automatically begin recharging the internal battery any time power is received at the MicroTrack USB port Depending on the manufacturer of your computer, your computer may need to be powered on to provide power to the USB port An animated battery symbol will be displayed in the right upper corner of the LCD on MicroTrack II to indicate that the device is being charged When the battery is fully charged, the animation will stop, the battery symbol will appear solid, and a check mark will be displayed next to the battery symbol, indicating that the charging process has finished Note: If MicroTrack II is off and you connect it to the USB port of computer that is running, MicroTrack II will power up and enter host mode.
