9. The four inputs can be mixed down in 3 different modes: multichannel, stereo or mono. When multichannel
mode is selected, all four inputs are recorded as separate tracks in your DAW. When stereo mode is
selected, inputs 1 and 3 are mixed into a single track (DAW input 1), as well as inputs 2 and 4 (DAW input
2). When in this mode, DAW inputs 3 and 4 are used as safety channels: this means that you’ll be able to
record the same signal present on DAW input 1 and 2 but reduced by 12dB as a backup in case your sound
source gets loud unexpectedly and causes the main channel to distort. When mono mode is selected all
the inputs are summed together to form a mono stream: also in this case DAW inputs 3 and 4 act as safety
channels.

10. iRig Pro Quattro I/O is equipped with a built-in omnidirectional microphone located at the top of the front
panel. When using the built-in microphone, orient the capsule towards the sound source being recorded. To
activate the built-in microphone, slide the switch to the ON position: when active, the built-in microphone will
replace input 1 and its gain can be controlled with the same potentiometer.
11. To play MIDI compatible apps from an external controller, connect your controller’s MIDI OUT port to iRig
Pro Quattro I/O’s MIDI IN port. Always check the specific MIDI input settings in your app to make sure that
the app is ready to receive incoming MIDI data.
12. To control an external MIDI device from an app, connect the MIDI OUT port of the iRig Pro Quattro I/O to the
MIDI IN port of the external device. Always check for specific MIDI output settings in your app to make sure
they are set to transmit MIDI data.
13. Connect your headphones to the Headphone Output jack on iRig Pro Quattro I/O and set its level via the
dedicated volume knob.
14. Connect your mixer or powered speakers to the line output XLR on iRig Pro Quattro I/O and set its level via
the dedicated volume knob. These outputs are high quality balanced outputs, so you don’t need to use any
DI box when connecting to a PA or Mixer onstage.
