ONE panel tour
Built-in Microphone
ONE’s built-in microphone capsule is located at the top
of the front panel. When using the built-in microphone,
orient the capsule towards the sound source
being recorded.
Input/Output Selection Indicator
These indicators show the input or output selected
for level adjustment using the multi-function
Controller Knob.
Input/Output Level Meters
These meters display the input level when any input is
selected or the output level when the output is selected
for level adjustment using the Controller Knob.
Multi-function Controller Knob
ONE’s multi-function controller knob allows you to easily
switch between Inputs and Outputs as well as adjust
their levels.
1/8” Stereo Headphone/Speaker Output
ONE’s 1/8” stereo output may be connected to
headphones or powered speakers. To connect to
powered speakers, use an adaptor cable with a stereo
1/8” connector on one end and the appropriate mating
connector for the powered speakers on the other end.
Mic/Instrument Input
This port is for connecting ONE’s breakout cable, which
includes one female XLR connector and one female
1/4” connector.
USB
ONE utilizes a single USB connector to interface with
Mac and iOS devices. To connect to Mac, use the
provided cable that terminates in a USB “A” type
connector; to connect to an iOS device, use the provided
cable that terminates in a 30-pin connector. To connect
to iOS devices with Apple’s Lightning connector, Apple’s
Lightning to 30-pin adapter (sold separately) is required.

DC Power
When connecting to a Mac, ONE is easily powered by
any available USB port; there’s no need to connect the
included DC power supply.
When connected to iPad, iPod Touch, or iPhone, there
are two options for DC power:
1. Connect ONE’s power supply to power ONE and
charge the iOS device.
2. Install two AA batteries (not included) in ONE’s
battery compartment as shown to the right. The
iOS device runs from its internal battery while ONE
runs from the AA batteries. This allows the entire
system to be completely mobile.
To install 2 AA batteries, use a coin or screwdriver to
remove ONE’s battery compartment door. Orient the 2
batteries as shown below so that the batteries’ minus (-)
terminals are installed against the compartment’s
springs. Once batteries are installed, replace the
compartment door.
When powering ONE from two AA batteries, it is highly
recommended to use NiMH rechargeable batteries for
the best battery life when recording and playing back
audio. Approximate battery life is shown below for
minimal and maximum load conditions when using
standard and rechargeable NiMH batteries.
Standard AA
Rechargeable NiMH AA
Playback from iTunes
(minimal load)
2 hours, 40 minutes (See Note Below)
3 hours, 40 minutes
Recording - max load
30 minutes
2 hours, 10 minutes
About 5-10 minutes before ONE shuts down, the level meters’ red LEDs will flash to warn of the approaching loss of
power under most conditions. (see Note 1 below).
After changing batteries, it is necessary to power cycle ONE by removing and then re-inserting the USB connector.
Note - !Max load condition is as follows: Input 1 set to Ext 48v Mic with a 10mA phantom power load, Input 2
accepts a 1kHz tone at -1 dBfs, output set to maximum. Unit is set to 96kHz sample rate.
