SETUP EXAMPLE: “MOBILE STUDIO” SETUP EXAMPLE: “MOBILE STUDIO”
This is a typical small mobile setup with just a guitar,
a microphone and a laptop computer.
• Connect the guitar to CH1 using a standard 1/4 inch
jack mono-mono, and set the PAD/inst button to “in”
position. Set input level using channel 1’s GAIN TRIM
knob.
• Connect a microphone to CH2 and use the PAD/
inst selector to correct input sensitivity and adjust the
level on this channel using channel 2’s GAIN TRIM
knob of.
If you have connected a condenser microphone, the
+48 phantom power switch must be pressed.
• Connect your laptop computer using a standard
FireWire cable.
• Connect headphones to one or both Phones outputs.
The upper connection will mute the main outputs
on the rear panel (but since nothing is connected to
the main outputs, it is not relevant which headphone
output you use in this scenario).
If only one Impact Twin is used and no other
FireWire devices are connected to the computer’s
FireWire ports, Impact Twin can be bus-powered
directly from the computer’s FireWire port*.
This is an ideal setup for recording in the field.
However, Impact Twin does use power and will drain
the computer’s battery faster (especially if phantom
power is used). Therefore we recommend using a power
supply for either the computer and/or Impact Twin when
possible.
* Please read the manual section regarding bus power.

Ableton Live Settings
Assuming you are using Ableton Live as your DAW, you
could use the following settings for this setup:
• In Ableton Live, create two audio tracks.
• In the “View” drop-down menu, select “In/Out”.
Select the Arrangement View. The right side of your
working space will now show the following parameters:
– Select “Ext. In” on both tracks.
– Select “Mono In 1” for Track 1 and “Mono In 2” for
Track 2.
– In the Master section, select output channels 1/2.
– That’s it!
The described settings for this example can be
recalled as a preset via Impact Twin’s file menu.
