English irig Acoustic Stage Thank you for purchasing irig Acoustic Stage. Your package contains: irig Acoustic Stage 2xAA batteries irig Acoustic microphone Belt clip Pouch Quick Start Guide Registration Card irig Acoustic Stage is a revolutionary digital microphone system for Acoustic Guitar, both with steel and nylon strings. We all know that the best possible sound when recording an acoustic guitar is the one you get with a classic studio microphone in a well sounding studio, with a great preamp and proper positioning, and we all know how compromised the sound of a typical stock or after-market piezo pickup system is. The typical under-saddle piezo pickup system takes all the air and acoustic qualities from the instrument out of the picture. All the subtle nuances and harmonics of a great acoustic instrument are normally lost with bridgemounted pickup systems. The main functionality of irig Acoustic Stage is to make your guitar sound exactly as if it was captured with a classic recording studio setup with a very simple clip-on microphone that can be applied in seconds to any instrument. The synergy between the microphone, the preamp and DSP unit creates an incredible natural-sounding tone for any acoustic instrument. It features 3 tone presets natural, warm and bright for both steel string and nylon string instruments. And while, when compared to piezo pickups, irig Acoustic Stage makes any instrument sound dramatically better right out of the box, you can also calibrate the system to precisely fit the sonic signature of your instrument and playing style allowing it to draw out the full acoustic potential of your instrument. Register your irig Acoustic Stage By registering, you can access technical support, activate your warranty and receive free JamPoints which will be added to your account. JamPoints allow you to obtain discounts on future IK purchases! Registering also keeps you informed of all the latest software updates and IK products.

English Installation and setup 1. Insert the provided batteries in the battery compartment. You can use both Alkaline or Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. High energy Ni-MH will last at least 18 hours. Tip: If you play frequently, a good suggestion is to have 2 sets of rechargeable AAs, one in use and the other on charge and swap them every 2-3 gigs. 2. Connect the irig Acoustic microphone. 3. Fix the microphone to your instrument. If the soundboard of your instrument is very thin the irig Acoustic microphone may not stay perfectly steady during use. To solve this you can add one or more layers of adhesive tape inside the irig Acoustic microphone slot to make it a perfect fit for your instrument. 4

English 4. Connect the irig Acoustic Stage output to the PA mixer or to an acoustic guitar amplifier, as you would do with a normal acoustic-electric guitar. 5. Turn ON the unit. Tip: Always turn down the channel volume on the mixer or the volume of the amp before turning ON or OFF irig Acoustic Stage! 5

English 6. While you can immediately start using your irig Acoustic Stage with great results, if your instrument already features an onboard undersaddle piezo pickup system you can also connect its output to irig Acoustic Stage. This will give more flexibility to your tone, allowing you to mix the irig Acoustic microphone and the guitar built-in pickup system. 6

English 7. When recording the guitar in the studio or performing live on acoustic sets, best results will be obtained by using the irig Acoustic Stage microphone only. This is obtained by just leaving the AUX input disconnected, or by rotating the MIX control completely clockwise. When performing live with loud sets and, depending on the type of sound you re after, it might be useful mixing-in a portion of the guitar s built-in piezo pickup. This will make the system less feedback sensitive and will add some definition and punch from the piezo pickup that can be desirable in certain cases. This is obtained by setting the MIX control to 50% as a starting point and experimenting with other mix levels to find the best spot. 7

English 8. When mixing the guitar s on-board pickup system with irig Acoustic using the MIX control, always start by setting this switch to the 0 position. On certain guitars you might get a fuller and more natural sound by flipping the phase of the AUX input by setting this switch to the 180 position. When no AUX input is connected this switch reverses the phase of the irig Acoustic Stage output, and it can be useful when playing in front of loud stage monitors to experiment with both positions to find the one that gives less feedback and a more solid tone. 9. Use the volume knob to adjust the overall output signal. This control can also be used to turn the guitar down between songs as it is easy to operate even if you can t see the unit. Tip: Always keep a bit of margin when playing so that you can always quickly turn it up if you would need to. Also remember to push the control in, once you set the volume as preferred, to avoid accidental movements of the volume control. 8

English 10. Use the belt clip to attach the irig Acoustic Stage to your belt or your instrument s shoulder strap. 11. irig Acoustic Stage can also be used as a digital recording interface for computers. Just plug the USB Digital Audio Output to any computer equipped with recording software (for example Apple s Garage Band) and you ll be ready to record the guitar with a pristine full digital path. This will ensure professional quality recording results with a minimal effort and ultra quick setup. You can connect irig Acoustic Stage to: Mac computers, Windows based computers, ios devices (using a Camera Connection Kit accessory) and Android devices (using an OTG cable, not included). To connect irig Acoustic Stage to a computer for recording you need a Micro USB to USB type A cable (not included). When connecting irig Acoustic Stage to a computer using the USB port, irig Acoustic Stage will be powered by the USB port. For this reason you don t need batteries installed when using irig Acoustic Stage this way. 9

English Cancel feedback button In case of a feedback tap the CANCEL FEEDBACK button and the troublesome frequency is instantly notched out of the mix, thus eliminating feedback without sacrificing tone quality. This feature set individuals notch filters (up to 10) for multiple feedback frequencies. 1. Press this button while a feedback occurs. Available filter storage locations are: 10. When a filter is stored the button will flash one time red. If no filter is stored no flash will occur. 2. Reached the maximum filters storage available, the next press of the button will cause the button to blink four times. 3. To reset all the filters stored, keep the cancel feedback button pressed for at least 2 sec. The button will turn off. Tip 1: A good practice to be feedback safe while performing is to follow these steps: - while setting the sound for the gig just raise the irig Acoustic Stage channel volume (slowly) up to when the system starts to feedback. Then, while the feedback is starting to sound as a steady note, press the CANCEL FEEDBACK button. The feedback will disappear. - you can then increase the volume even further and cancel another feedback frequency that may appear. - put the volume level down back to the normal level you will use for the gig. Tip 2: When playing onstage acoustic instruments it may happen that some low notes start resonating too much with the monitor speakers or with the PA system when played. This is particularly annoying while playing. irig Acoustic Stage allows you to solve this problem this way: - play the critical note and while the note is resonating press the CANCEL FEEDBACK button. This will attenuate the note to make it level with the others and no longer a critical spot. 10

English Tone button Press TONE multiple times to select the tone you prefer. NATURAL provides a balanced tone typical of a large diaphragm microphone placed at the golden spot when making studio recordings. WARM provides a smoother tone, useful when NATURAL tends to sound a bit too harsh or edgy BRIGHT gives a brighter tone, useful to have it cutting thought the mix in complex live setups All the three settings apply to both steel and nylon strung instruments. Nylon will toggle ON or OFF every time the presets are cycled. Make sure NYLON is ON on nylon strung instruments (yes, including Ukuleles!). Each press of the TONE button will select different preset, cycling this way: NATURAL -> WARM -> BRIGHT -> NYLON (on) - > NATURAL -> WARM -> BRIGHT -> NYLON (off) - > NATURAL... 11

English Instrument calibration The calibration process improves the overall response of the presets by tailoring them to the specific response of your instrument. By default this button s LED is red to indicate no user calibration has been performed yet, and the factory calibration is loaded. This factory calibration has been created to make virtually every instrument sound natural and balanced. You can use the factory calibration (TONE button RED) on steel strings guitars of any kind, nylon strings guitars of any kind, acoustic basses, ukuleles and so on. The sound will always be balanced and natural thanks to the proprietary digital processing system irig Acoustic Stage performs. If you are playing Steel stringed guitars and would like to make the irig Acoustic Stage processing specifically tailored for your instrument, you should perform the Instrument Calibration process. (see notes below). In the table below are listed the typical situations when it is useful to perform the instrument calibration: Instrument TYPE Steel strings - Dreadnought Steel strings - Jumbo, Parlor, 001, and other styles different from Dreadnought Nylon strings - any type Non-guitar instruments like: Ukuleles, Acoustic Basses, Mandolins, etc.. CALIBRATION Optional, will improve every instrument even if Factory Calibration already sounds great. Optional, can be effective, but, depending on the instrument, can also flatten out some peculiar aspect of the guitar tone. Since results depends on the instrument, it should be experimented with. Normally not useful. Factory Calibration sounds great on Nylon instruments, can anyway be experimented. Not advisable. Will make the instrument sound unnatural. Factory calibration sounds great on these instruments. Calibration process As soon as a calibration has been successfully completed the button will turn green. To start the calibration the irig Acoustic microphone must be connected: 1. Keep pressed the Tone button for at least 2sec (after 2 sec begins the calibration process). 2. The four presets LEDs will start to blink along with the TONE LED 12

English 3. Proceed playing 6 strings clusters in semitones steps on your guitar. Try playing these clusters using the same dynamics you will be averagely using when playing. If you play too soft during calibration, the system will probably deliver a too bright response. If you play very hard the system will produce a too soft response. We suggest checking the online tutorial videos to see how calibration clusters should be played. Tip: The fact that the calibration end results depends on how you play the calibration clusters is actually something very useful once you get used to it because it allows to have specific calibration for your instrument just changing the way you play during calibration. This is going to be fun once it will be familiar because it will open up the possibility to create very specific and personal tones with your instrument! 4. To confirm the calibration press the TONE button. The TONE button LED turn GREEN to indicate the calibration has been saved. 13

English 5. To abort the calibration press the FEEDBACK CANCEL button. irig Acoustic Stage will return to the previous state. 6. To return to the factory default calibration: start the calibration as per point (1) above then, while the calibration process is going on, press the Tone button for at least 2 sec. NOTE 1: the calibration process has a time out of 60 seconds. After this time the process automatically ends. NOTE 2: the calibration can start only if the microphone is connected. Phase switch The phase flip switch (0-180 ) works pre-mix. When both the MEMS and the Piezo are connected the phase switch acts on the MEMS signal. When only the MEMS is connected it act on the MEMS signal. When only the Piezo is connected it act on the Piezo signal. 14

English AUX IN Most acoustic guitars used for live performance includes a piezo pickup in the bridge. This is of course very useful to amplify the instrument but we all know the sound of the piezo pickup does not actually represent the true tone of the guitar when played acoustically. With irig Acoustic Stage AUX IN you can connect the output of your guitar to this input and mix the stock guitar pickup output with the irig Acoustic microphone tone. This will allow to keep using the powerful and reliable output of the piezo pickup onstage in feedback-critical situations, with just a touch of the irig Acoustic microphone mixed in to make it sounding way more acoustic and rich. Use the MIX control to balance the tone between the Piezo pickup (fully CCW) and the irig Acoustic microphone (fully CW). When using both the AUX and irig Acoustic sources make sure to experiment with the PHASE switch on the left side of the irig Acoustic Stage to make sure you set it on the position where the two sound sources mixes together the way you prefer. Low battery indications When the battery level approach to be low, all the (turned ON) LEDs will fast blink every 2 sec. When the battery is at a very low level the audio out is muted and the LED continuously blinks. 15

中文 乐器类型 钢弦琴 校准 可选, 会提升每个乐器, 尽管出厂校准已经听起来很棒 钢弦琴 - Jumbo, Parlor, 001, 以及其他不同于 Dreadnought 的类型 可选, 有效, 但取决于乐器, 也可以 拉平 一些特殊方面的吉他音色 由于结果取决于乐器, 可以进行尝试 尼龙弦琴 任何类型通常不用 出厂校准在尼龙弦乐器上听起来很棒, 但可以进行尝试 非吉他乐器如 : 尤克里里, 原声贝斯, 曼陀林等 不建议使用 会使乐器听起来不自然 出厂标准在这些乐器上听起来已经不错 校准处理 校准完成后按钮会变成绿色 开始校准前需连接 irig Acoustic 麦克风 : 1. 持续按住 TONE( 音色 ) 按钮至少 2 秒 (2 秒后开始校准过程 ) 2. 四个预置 LED 灯会随着 TONE( 音色 )LED 闪烁 25

中文 3. 在吉他上的每品大横按 6 根弦弹奏 每品都弹, 按平时弹奏的力度 如果在校准过程中弹奏太轻柔, 系统可能会输送一个太亮的响应 如果弹奏很用力系统则会产生一个太弱的响应 我们建议您观看在线教程视频, 看看如何弹奏校准横按 Tip: 事实上校准的结果取决于如何弹奏校准横按, 一旦习惯了会发现它实际上非常有用, 因为它允许对乐器有具体的校准, 只要在校准过程中改变弹奏方法 熟悉了以后会觉得很有意思, 因为它能够让您用您的乐器创建非常具体而个人的音色! 4. 确认校准请按 TONE( 音色 ) 按钮 TONE( 音色 ) 按钮 LED 变成绿色则表示校准已被保存 26

中文 5. 中止校准请按 FEEDBACK CANCEL( 取消反馈 ) 按钮 irig Acoustic Stage 会回到这之前的状态 6. 返回出厂默认校准 : 开始校准为每点 (1) 以上, 然后当校准正在进行时, 按住 TONE( 音色 ) 按钮至少 2 秒 NOTE 1: 校准过程时间为 60 秒 时间到后校准自动结束 NOTE 2: 校准只有在连接了麦克风后才能开始 相位切换 相位翻转开关 (0-180 ) 工作预混 当 MEMS 和 Piezo 都连接时, 相位开关作用于 MEMS 信号 只有 MEMS 连接时作用于 MEMS 信号 只有 Piezo 连接时作用于 Piezo 信号 27

中文 AUX 输入 多数用于现场表演的原声吉他上都有一个琴桥下压电拾音器 这当然在放大乐器方面非常有用, 但我们都知道当弹奏原声时, 压电拾音器的声音不能够实际表现出吉他的真实音色 有了 irig Acoustic Stage 的 AUX 输入您可以连接吉他输出到这个输入, 混合吉他拾音器输出和 irig Acoustic 麦克风音色 这将允许继续使用强大而可靠的压电拾音器输出, 在舞台上反馈苛刻的情况下, 只需触碰混合的 irig Acoustic 麦克风就能让声音听起来更原声和丰富 使用 MIX 控制来平衡压电拾音器 ( 全 CCW) 和 irig Acoustic 麦克风 ( 全 CW) 之间的音色 当同时使用 AUX 和 irig Acoustic 声源确保 PHASE( 相位 ) 开关在 irig Acoustic Stage 左侧, 确保将它设置在两个声源混合最好的位置 电池电量不足提示 当电池电量低的时候, 所有 ( 开启的 )LED 显示灯会每 2 秒快速闪烁 当电池电量很低的时候, 音频输出会静音,LED 显示灯持续闪烁 28
