Welcome and thank you for purchasing the Liquid Tracks. We hope you enjoy the product and have many years of great use
from it. With expansion capabilities, we hope you find some of those additions useful in enhancing your performance or
production work.
Like other Liquid Products, Liquid Tracks was designed to be flexible and full featured. As time goes on, additional features
and functions will be added. You can expect to receive these benefits for free in the form of firmware updates that can be
downloaded from the web-­‐site and installed in seconds.
Thank you for your support and enjoy Liquid Tracks.
What is the Liquid Tracks LT -­‐ 50, LT -­‐ 100 concept?
There are many uses for the Liquid Tracks and the complexity or simplicity is defined by how you program, link and trigger
your presets. It is easy to achieve simple preset/track control, and it can go all the way to very complex time based triggering
of complete concerts. We are sure as you start using the device and learning the advanced features, you will create a new
usage model for the product; and we look forward to hearing of those successes. Further, the LT 50 and LT 100 were designed
as play/pause/stop systems and should not be confused with loopers.
In a simplistic summary, the Liquid Tracks is a device that allows the triggering of presets. Presets can be as simple as an audio
file, and as complicated as an audio file, synced with a midi track, triggered by a certain start event, and then triggering other
events upon the completion of the preset. Presets can further control the built-­‐in Pre-­‐Amp, audio signal processing and other
switching capabilities all simultaneously. All of this control can be pre-­‐programmed into the Liquid Tracks, or controlled
externally by another Liquid Tracks, or any other midi controller (PC, Foot Controller, etc…).
To aid with Rock solid GIG protection, special features were added for backup/redundancy and simple maintenance of other
MIDI gear in the rig. Keep copies of firmware, preset and patch files, set-­‐lists, sysex configurations and anything else midi
related. Store all these sysex files on your Liquid Tracks and trigger or send them at any time. The Liquid Tracks can also go
into record mode and simply make a backup of other equipment on the fly. It can also record standard midi files from events
flowing over the MIDI network. These midi files can be played back, or attached to presets. With additional Liquid Tracks, a
network can be put together to control hundreds of tracks simultaneously.
