OVERVIEW
Your First GoStudio Recording
It only takes a few minutes to set up your GoStudio and start recording.
Let’s walk through your first recording so you can get familiar with the GoStudio’s controls. All you need is your GoStudio, your iPod, and the
two AAA batteries that came with the GoStudio. For more details about how these controls work, see the “GoStudio Controls” section on
page 10.
To make your first GoStudio recording:
1 Make sure the GoStudio’s power switch is in the off position. The power switch is located toward the bottom of the control panel.
2 Remove the battery door on the rear of the GoStudio and install two AAA batteries.
3 Switch the GoStudio power switch to the on position. Check that the GoStudio’s status indicator, located directly above the power switch, is green.
4 In the next few steps, we’ll set the audio controls to record using the GoStudio’s built-in microphones.
5 Set the GoStudio’s Source switch, located on the left side of the control panel, to the lowest position. This tells the GoStudio that you want to
record using the on-board mics.
6 Set the 01 gain switch, located on the upper-left side of the control panel, to the auto position. This configures the GoStudio to provide
amplification that adapts to the audio that’s being recorded. In this case, the auto setting will work well for recording using the on-board
microphones in many situations. Don’t worry about the gain 02 switch, as this control does not apply when using the on-board microphones.
7 Set the master level control knob so that it points to the 0marking,whichisbetweenthe2:00and3:00positionoftheknob’srotation.Settingthis
knob to the 0 point tells the GoStudio not to apply any extra attenuation or amplification to the audio signal.
8 Set the optional mono, limiter, and low cut filter control switches to the off position. These controls are located on the right side of the control
panel.
