Configuring and using the TORPEDO Live
1 The TORPEDO Live interface
The TORPEDO Live parameters are organized in menus, accessible by different push-buttons and knobs you will
see on the figure 3.1:
• Two 2-function rotary encoders: PRESET/PARAMETER, OUTPUT LEVEL/VALUE
• Two push-buttons: SETUP and EDIT/HOLD TO SAVE.
• One potentiometer: input gain.
When pushing a button or turning an encoder, you see a parameter moving on the two lines display (item 3
in figure 3.1).
2 Input gain control
This encoder controls the input gain of the unit. As the TORPEDO Live being a digital product, it is absolutely
critical to avoid any saturation of the input signal and avoid the risk of considerably reducing the audio quality.
The input level is controlled by a potentiometer and is the same for all presets. To get the best sound, try to
have the same volume (or close) on all different sounds coming to the TORPEDO Live. This way you won’t have
to change the input gain when switching the channels on your amplifier. If you don’t have individual volume
settings on your amplifier channels, always do the gain setting with the loudest channel.
The input gain adjustment must be done with input signal present at the input selected (speaker or line input).
The input bargraph gives you a visual indication of the input signal amplitude. The upper red led is on when there
is saturation in the input stage: lower the volume of your amplifier output and/or lower the input gain.
For optimum quality, we advise to keep the peak levels of the input signal at a
maximum of -12dB to -6dB on the bargraph.
3 Three modes: PERFORM, EDIT & SETUP
The TORPEDO Live has three different mode, giving you access to different parameters:
1. Navigate through the 100 presets in PERFORM mode
2. Edit a preset in EDIT mode
3. Setup global parameter of the machine in SETUP mode
To enter a mode, whatever the current mode, push the appropriate button. To see and modify the various
parameters, use the appropriate encoders wich function depends on the current mode.
