enclosed warranty card within 14 days of purchase.  During the warranty period PreSonus shall, at its sole 
and absolute option, either, repair or replace, free of charge, any product that proves to be defective on

attempted repair by unauthorized personnel, and is limited to failures arising during normal use that are due 
to defects in material or workmanship in the product.  Any implied warranties, including implied warranties 
of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are limited in duration to the length of this limited

permitted by law, damages for personal injury.  Some states do not allow the exclusion of limitation of 
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.  This 
warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
