This eight-input USB 2.0 audio interface enables you to track large music ensembles, record the band, or mic an entire drum set with pro-grade audio components and a myriad of connections. M-Track Eight connects to your computer via USB 2.0 and easily integrates into your studio with its standard 1U 19 rack size. With a single USB cable, M-Track Eight creates a two-way audio connection with your Mac or PC, enabling you to record directly into your favorite DAW or playback audio to mix and master your tracks. Plus, Cubase 7 LE comes bundled with M-Track Eight for out-of-the-box music creation and gives you a powerful software environment to record, edit, and bounce down your songs. The included software suite also offers an impressive selection of plugin effects from Waves Audio to put a professional finish to your production: AudioTrack, Eddie Kramer Effect Channel, TrueVerb, L1 Ultramaximizer, and Manny Marroquin Delay. Frequently Asked Questions Does the M-Track Eight require software drivers? For an Apple computer running Mac OSX, no drivers are required. On a Windows 7 or Windows 8 computer, only one driver installation is necessary, found on theM-Audio Drivers/Updatespage. Will the M-Track Eight work with other DAW software? Yes! Virtually any Mac OSX or WindowsDigitalAudioWorkstation software capable of using USB audio interfaces will work with the M-Track Eight. Can I use an external microphone preamp or direct box with the M-Track Eight? Yes! When connecting an external mic preamp, direct box, or any other type of preamplifier to the M-Track, use a 1/4" TS or TRS type connector as this will bypass the M-Track Eight's internal microphone preamps.Onlyuse an XLR type connection for microphones. The LED lights on the front of the M-Track Eight do not light up all of the time. Have I set the levels properly? To achieve optimum input levels, adjust the input gain while the source (microphone, instrument) is receiving the loudest signal. For example, have a vocalist sing through the loudest section of the song. At this loudest point, you should see one or two green LED lights.Drums and other percussive sources may occasionally display the yellow light. The red light indicates the input gain is set too high. What value does each LED segment on the level meters signify? The meters are calibrated relative to 0dBFS, which is the point of digital clipping. They values are approximately as follows: Red: -0.5dBFS Amber: -3dBFS Green1: -6dBFS Green2: -20dBFS Which output on the back do I connect my speakers to? Connect your speakers or studio monitors to the MONITOR OUTPUT. This output will be controlled by the large MONITOR knob on the front panel. The other 8 outputs of the M-Track Eight are assignable from the outputs of your audio software (ex, Cubase LE7). Are the inputs and outputs "Balanced" or "Unbalanced"? All inputs and outputs on the M-Track Eight can accept both balanced and unbalanced line connections. Note that only XLR and TRS type connectors carry balanced signals, while TS and RCA type connectors are always unbalanced. The sound from my Mac is very quiet, even when I turn the M-Track Eight up all the way! Is this normal? Mac OSX has a separate, internal volume control. We recommend keeping this all the way up in your Mac'sSystem Preferences Sound Outputmenu. On some Macs, you may also control the volume with the function keys on the keyboard. The M-Track Eight is very warm to the touch. Is this normal? Yes. The M-Track 8 will be very warm during normal operation, but will not burn the skin when touched. Preamps of this design and quality require a good deal of juice to operate (19V 2.37A in this case).

If that's the question? There are only 4 led lights per channel or track. 2 green 1 yellow & 1 red. I found with recording drums you can pin the yellow & bounce in the red with no clipping. Also I used Protools mixer to view the level & assigned the Compressor Limiter verry minimal to be sure no clipping occurd. **Q: Does this unit work with FL Studio?** A: M-Audio support here! The M-Track Eight will work perfectly with FL Studio.
