M-AUDIO MICROTRACK 24 Manuel D’Utilisation

MicroTrack 24/96  <  User Guide

Congratulations on your purchase of the M-Audio MicroTrack 24/96. The MicroTrack 24/96 is a portable recorder that can record stereo audio 
signals directly to CompactFlash media in either WAV or MP3 format. The MicroTrack 24/96 has an internal rechargeable battery. There are 
connections for 1/8” electret microphones, as well as professional 1/4” TRS inputs for dynamic and condenser microphones. The MicroTrack 24/96 
will supply 5V for electret mics and phantom power for condenser mics. You can also connect your MicroTrack 24/96 to a computer via the USB 
connection. This connection will allow audio files to be transferred to and from the computer as well as providing power to recharge the MicroTrack 
24/96 battery. While the MicroTrack 24/96 is simple to use, we still suggest that you read through this entire manual to familiarize yourself with all 
the functions contained within this portable unit.
