The rear panel provides all input and output connections. This includes XLR/TRS combo jacks for microphone/line inputs, D-Sub connectors for line inputs and outputs/sends, ADAT and AES/EBU digital outputs, Wordclock I/O, and a USB port for computer connectivity. The power inlet is located on the far left.

4. د تنظیم کولو لارښود

4.1 پاکول او ځای پرځای کول

• Carefully remove the PureDrive Octo from its packaging.
• Place the unit in a well-ventilated area, preferably in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. Ensure adequate airflow around the unit to prevent overheating.
• د تودوخې سرچینو ته نږدې یا مستقیم لمر وړانګو کې د واحد له ایښودلو څخه ډډه وکړئ.

4.2 د بریښنا نښلول

• ډاډ ترلاسه کړئ چې د واحد د بریښنا سویچ په بند حالت کې دی.
• Connect the supplied AC power cable to the IEC inlet on the rear panel of the PureDrive Octo.
• Plug the other end of the power cable into a grounded AC outlet.

4.3 آډیو ارتباطات

• د مایکروفون داخلونه: Connect microphones to the XLR inputs on the rear panel (Channels 1-8).
• لاین داخلونه: Connect line-level sources using TRS jacks or the dedicated D-Sub connectors on the rear panel.
• ډیجیټل محصولات: Connect the ADAT OUT ports to your audio interface or digital mixer for multi-channel digital audio. Use AES/EBU outputs for stereo digital audio.
• د USB پیوستون: Connect the USB port on the rear panel to your computer for use as an audio interface. Install necessary drivers if prompted by your operating system.
• کلمه: For synchronization with other digital audio devices, connect a Wordclock cable to the WORDCLOCK IN/OUT ports.

5. عملیاتي لارښوونې

5.1 بریښنا کول / بندول

• To power on, flip the power switch on the rear panel to the ON position.
• د بریښنا بندولو لپاره، د بریښنا سویچ بند حالت ته واړوئ.

5.2 Channel Controls (Per Channel)

• د ترلاسه کولو دستګاه: Adjusts the input gain for the microphone preamplifier. Use this to set the primary signal level.
• د ټرم غوټۍ: Provides fine-tuning of the output level in 1 dB increments. This allows for precise level matching and can be used to drive the signal into the DRIVE circuit.
• +۴۸V تڼۍ: Engages phantom power for condenser microphones. Ensure the microphone is connected before activating.
• د قطبیت تڼۍ: Inverts the phase of the input signal. Useful for correcting phase issues when using multiple microphones.
• HPF Button: Activates a High Pass Filter to reduce unwanted low-frequency rumble or proximity effect.
• Z.D. (Impedance) Button: Cycles through four input impedance options. Experiment with different settings to find the optimal tonal response for your microphone.
• PURE/DRIVE Button: Toggles between the PURE and DRIVE preamp طریقې
  • PURE Mode: Provides a clean, transparent, and linear ampتړل
  • د ډرایو حالت: Introduces harmonic saturation and warmth. The PureDrive Octo also features an 'Asymmetric' DRIVE option for unique tonal shaping.

5.3 A/D Conversion and Digital Output Controls

• د نرخ نوب: s غوره کويample rate for the A/D converters (e.g., 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz).
• د ساعت تڼۍ: Selects the clock source (Internal, Wordclock, USB).
• ميټرنگ: The front panel features LED meters for each channel, providing visual feedback on input levels.

6. ساتنه

• پاکول: د واحد بهرنۍ برخه پاکولو لپاره له نرم، وچ ټوکر څخه کار واخلئ. د کثافاتو پاکوونکو یا محلولونو څخه ډډه وکړئ.
• وینټیلیشن: ډاډ ترلاسه کړئ چې د هوا د تودوخې د مخنیوي لپاره د هوا د تودوخې سلاټونه خنډ نه وي.
• ذخیره کول: When not in use for extended periods, store the unit in a cool, dry environment, away from dust and extreme temperatures.

7. ستونزه حل کول

• ځواک نشته:
  • Check if the power cable is securely connected to both the unit and the AC outlet.
  • ډاډ ترلاسه کړئ چې د بریښنا سایټ فعال دی.
• د آډیو محصول نشته:
  • Ensure all audio cables are correctly connected to the inputs and outputs.
  • Check the GAIN and TRIM settings on the relevant channels.
  • Verify that the correct input source is selected on your receiving device (audio interface, mixer).
  • If using digital outputs (ADAT, AES/EBU, USB), ensure sample rates and clocking are correctly synchronized between devices.
• تحریف شوی آډیو:
  • Reduce the GAIN or TRIM level to prevent clipping.
  • Check the input level of your microphone or line source.
  • Ensure the PURE/DRIVE mode is set as desired; DRIVE mode intentionally adds harmonic distortion.
