Specifications Subject to Change:

The information contained in this manual is believed to

be correct at the time of release. However, Arturia reserves the right to change or modify

any of the specifications without notice or obligation to update the hardware that has been

purchased.

IMPORTANT:

The product and its software, when used in combination with an amplifier,

headphones or speakers, may be able to produce sound levels that could cause permanent

hearing loss. DO NOT operate for long periods of time at a high level or at a level that is

uncomfortable. If you encounter any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should consult

an audiologist.

NOTICE:

Service charges incurred due to a lack of knowledge relating to how a function

or feature works (when the product is operating as designed) are not covered by the

manufacturer’s warranty, and are therefore the owner's responsibility. Please study this

manual carefully and consult your dealer before requesting service.

Precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Read and understand all the instructions.

2. Always follow the instructions on the instrument.
3. Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the USB cable. When cleaning,

use a soft and dry cloth. Do not use gasoline, alcohol, acetone, turpentine or any

other organic solutions; do not use a liquid cleaner, spray or cloth that's too wet.

4. Do not use the instrument near water or moisture, such as a bathtub, sink,

swimming pool or similar place.

5. Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally

fall over.

6. Do not place heavy objects on the instrument. Do not block openings or vents

of the instrument; these locations are used for air circulation to prevent the

instrument from overheating. Do not place the instrument near a heat vent at any

location with poor air circulation.

7. Do not open or insert anything into the instrument that may cause a fire or

electrical shock.

9. Always take the instrument to a qualified service center. You will invalidate your

warranty if you open and remove the cover, and improper assembly may cause

electrical shock or other malfunctions.

10. Do not use the instrument with thunder and lightning present; otherwise it may

cause long distance electrical shock.

11. Do not expose the instrument to hot sunlight.

12. Do not use the instrument when there is a gas leak nearby.
13. Arturia is not responsible for any damage or data loss caused by improper

operation of the instrument.
