5. Quick Start
1. Turn the power switch off (down). Set the voltage on the Mains Switch according to your country
voltage rating.
2. Start by making sure the Bass Boost and Mic/Line buttons are off (extended outward). If using a
microphone as the input to the GPS-8, push the Mic/Line button in to turn on. If using a mixer, a
CD player, or other line-level source as the input to the GPS-8, leave the Mic/Line button off.
Turn the Level Control down (counter-clockwise).
3. Connect the output from your signal source, directly to the Mic/Line Input connector.
4. Connect the supplied AC power cord to the IEC socket. Plug the other end into a properly
grounded AC outlet.
5. Turn on your signal source. Make sure its Master Volume (if it has one) is fully turned down.
6. Turn the GPS-8 on using the power switch.
7. Start the signal source, whether it be speaking into a microphone or starting a CD player. Adjust
any volume controls on the signal source for normal operation.
8. Slowly turn the Level Control up on the GPS-8 until the desired volume is reached (and the
Limiter indicator light does not come on). Always wear hearing protectors if you are close when
it is playing at high levels.
9. If there is no sound, always turn down the GPS-8 Level Control before investigating.
