IMPORTANT NOTES

If your sound is distorted at high volumes, please refer to the following troubleshooting scenarios:

• Input is clipping: Try lowering the input gain or the volume control on your sound source or music

instrument.

• Output is clipping: Lower the main volume level.

• There is too much bass: Try adjusting the tone or EQ control on your sound source to lower the bass

level. This will allow you to play the music louder before clipping (distortion) occurs.

Important:

• With all speakers, an initial "break-in" period is needed to perform at optimal levels. To properly "break­in" your TransActive Drummer, play an audio source at medium volume for a few hours.

• For best audio quality, avoid using this device in a high RF-radiated environment.

source.

5. Line Input: Connect your external sound sources to
these inputs. Each input can accept a 1/4"
connection. This allows for several connection
options (e.g., 1 stereo source such as a drum module,
CD player, or sampler, 2 microphones, 1 or 2 mono
sources).

* WARNING: U.S. users should set this
switch to "100-120V" whereas U.K. and
most European users should set this to
"220-240V."Selecting the improper voltage

can damage the unit.

6. Master Output: Connect a mixer, PA system, or other device to these outputs using 1/4" cables.
Adjust the level of these outputs with the MASTER VOLUME knob on the top panel.

7. Stereo Link Output: Connect a 1/4" stereo (TRS) cable to this line-level output to connect another
amplification device, such as another TransActive Drummer. When you connect this output to another
TransActive Drummer, you will be able to use the inputs of both TransActive Drummers simultaneously
with a full stereo image and the combined wattage of 100 W.

8. Stereo Link Selector: When using two connected TransActive Drummers, set one speaker's Stereo
Link Selector to the "left" and the other to the "right" for a full stereo image. When in the "Off" position,
the summed left and right channels will be heard out of that speaker.

9. Headphones: Connect your 1/4" headphones to this output.

10. Master Volume Control: Adjusts the volume of the TransActive Drummer, the MASTER OUTPUT on
the rear panel and the HEADPHONE OUTPUT on the top panel. This master output includes iPod
playback plus any other devices connected to the INPUTS on the rear panel.

11. EQ: Use these knobs to adjust the levels of the Treble, Mid, and Bass frequencies.

12. iPod/Aux Volume: This knob controls the level of the iPod and the iPod/Auxiliary Input.

13. Dock: Connect your iPod here. Gently rock the iPod back and forth over the connector when attaching
or removing it.

14. Dock Adjuster: Turn this knob accordingly so your docked iPod rests against the support.
