Quick Start Guide

1. Install a 9V battery. Gently slide out the battery cover in 

the direction of the arrow at the back of unit. Insert the 
battery with the “+” positive terminal lined up with the 
“+” indicator on the battery compartment. 

2. Connect SmartRig II to your iOS or Android device’s 

headphone jack. 

3. Connect your microphone to the XLR input of SmartRig II.
4. Download a recording application supporting real-time 

input/output pass-through. Then you are be able to 
monitor the audio during recording.

5. Turn on the SmartRig II. Slide the power switch to the ON 

position. The green LED will light.

6. If your microphone needs phantom power, please slide 

the power switch to the +48V position. The red and 
green LEDs will light at the same time.

7. You are now ready to record by the microphone on your 

device. Adjust the GAIN control flexibly to get the the 
optimum signal levels. Check the input level meter on 
the app. This level meter should peak as high as 
possible but never reach the maximum level. 

8. If you need to monitor your recording, please connect 

your headphones to the head-phone output. 

Tips:

•  Be careful not to turn the phantom power ON with 

passive ribbon microphones as the current may damage 
it. Please turn ON phantom power ONLY if the ribbon 
micro-phone clearly says it’s needed.

•  Please set the GAIN properly during recording. If the 

GAIN is too low, recordings will be too quiet, and they 
will become too noisy when boosted within the apps. If 
the GAIN is too high, recordings will be distorted.

•  If you hear echoes when using high GAIN settings, please 

lower the device volume with the volume button.

•  If you can’t hear audio when monitoring, please make 

sure the applications you choose can support real-time 
input/output pass-through.
