Tip
Ring
The pre-amplified signal is sent Out the
Tip of the plug and Returns to the
Tracker Pre via the Ring of the plug.
Inserting a stereo send-return cable into an Insert jack breaks the
connection between the Mic Preamp and the A/D converter and allows
you to insert a serial processing device, such as a compressor or EQ.
(Compressor, EQ, etc.)
TIP . . .
Tracker Pre can be used as
a standalone, high-quality
stereo microphone preamp
if needed.
