IMPORTANT SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Please read these instructions carefully and adhere to the operating advice.

1. Do not use this unit near water.

2. Never use aggressive cleaners on the casing or on the screen. Remove dust, dirt and ﬁngerprints with

a soft, dry and non-abrasive cloth. More persistent dirt can be removed with a slightly damp cloth using

only water. Disconnect all cables while doing this. Only reconnect them when the product is safely dry.

3. To avoid scratches or damage, never use sharp objects near the casing or the screen. Avoid

applying any pressure to the screen itself.

4. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Make sure you place the unit on a stable sur-

face before use. If you mount the unit in a rack, be sure to tighten all four screws in the rack mount holes.

5. Connect the unit to an easily accessible electrical outlet close to the unit.

6. When transporting the unit, use accessories recommended by the manufacturer or the original box and

padding.

7. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or any other equipment

(including ampliﬁers) producing heat.

8. Do not put the PL-2 Protective Cover (Elektron accessory) on the unit while the unit is powered on.

9. Make sure there is sucient air circulation in the room where the unit is kept.

10.This product, by itself or in combination with ampliﬁers, headphones or speakers, is capable of produc-

ing sound levels that may cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate at a high volume level or at a

level that is uncomfortable.

11. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles,

and the point where they exit from the unit.

12. Use attachments/accessories speciﬁed by the manufacturer.

13. Unplug this unit during lightning storms or when it is not used for long periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualiﬁed service technicians. Servicing is required when the unit has been

damaged in any way, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the unit, the unit has been

exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electrical shock or product damage:

• Do not expose the unit to rain, moisture, dripping or splashing and also avoid placing objects ﬁlled with

liquid on the unit.

• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, nor use it in ambient temperatures exceeding 40°C as this can

lead to malfunction.

• Do not open the casing. There are no user repairable or adjustable parts inside. Leave service and re-

pairs to trained service technicians only.

• Do not exceed the limitations speciﬁed in the Electrical speciﬁcations.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE POWER ADAPTER ELEKTRON PSU-3b

• The adapter is not safety grounded and may only be used indoors.

• To ensure good ventilation for the adapter, do not place it in tight spaces. To prevent risk of electric

shock and ﬁre because of overheating, ensure that curtains and other objects do not prevent adapter

ventilation.

• Do not expose the power adapter to direct sunlight, nor use it in ambient temperatures exceeding 40°C.

• Connect the adapter to an easily accessible electrical outlet close to the unit.

• The adapter is in standby mode when the power cord is connected. The primary circuit is always active

when the cord is connected to the power outlet. Pull out the cord to completely disconnect the adapter.

• In the EU, only use CE approved power cords.

1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing the Octatrack MKII. The Octatrack MKII is a dynamic performance sampler ideal for

real-time sampling, remixing and audio manipulation. It features the improved Elektron step sequencer which

makes it easy to bend and process samples in new and unique ways. To make the most of the machine, we

recommend you to carefully read this manual.

1.1 CONVENTIONS IN THIS MANUAL

We have used the following conventions throughout the manual:

Key names are written in upper case, bold style and bracketed letters. For instance, the key labeled “FUNC”

is called [FUNC].

Menu names are written in upper case letters. The SRC SETUP menu is an example of that.

Parameter names and certain menu options where settings can be made or actions performed are written

in bold, upper case letters. For example, HEADPHONES MIX.

Upper case letters are used for parameter setting alternatives, for example, ONE, and certain menu set-

tings, like EXTERNAL.

Messages visible on the screen are written in upper case letters with quotation marks. Like this, “CHOOSE

BANK”

Knobs are written in upper case, bold, italic letters. For instance, the knob “level” is called LEVEL.

LED indicators like the Card Status LED are written like this: <CARD STATUS>.

The following symbols are used throughout the manual:

Important information that you should pay attention to.

A tip that will make it easier for you to interact with the Octatrack MKII.
