Quick Start Guide

1. Set up your songs in the software

Section titled “1. Set up your songs in the software”

Set up your session

  • Install the P-1 software from https://idoru.live/downloads
  • Open the P-1 software.
  • Create a new session by clicking ‘Create new session’ button.
  • Create a new setlist by clicking ‘Create setlist’ button.
  • Create a new song by clicking ‘Create song’ button.

Prepare your songs

  • Double-click the song to open the Song Edit view.

  • You can use mono or stereo 16-bit, 44.1 kHz WAV files.

  • Add WAV files to the song: Click on the square labelled ‘F1’. Choose a WAV file you want to load into this sound source slot to send to output 1. You can also simply drag and drop WAV files onto the sound source slots.

  • Click on output 2 in the outputs row at the top of the screen to open its submixer, then click on the square labelled ‘F2’. Choose a WAV file you want to send to output 2.

  • Repeat this for any other WAV files you want to load.

  • You can also send more than one sound source to an output; simply click on any sound source to activate it. The sound source square will light up red, indicating it is now also routed to the currently selected output. For example, if you want to route the WAV files in slots F1 and F2 to output 1, click on output 1 in the output row to open its submixer, then click on F2 to activate it. Now both F1 and F2 should be lit up, meaning those WAV files will be heard on output 1.

  • If you want to use 2 outputs as a stereo pair, click the stereo link button between the output numbers. The outputs now share a submixer and sound sources. If a stereo file is routed to this pair, its left channel will play through the lower-numbered output and its right channel through the higher-numbered output.

  • When ready click the ‘Done’ button to return to the Setlist view.

  • Now right-click on your song and select ‘Duplicate’.

  • Double-click the new song, and change the WAV files by double-clicking on the sound source squares.

  • Repeat this process to make your whole set of songs.

Transfer your session into the P-1

  • Insert the SD card in the P-1, connect it via USB to the computer, then connect the power. Alternatively, you can use an SD card reader on your computer.
  • Click ‘Send session to P-1’ at the bottom of the screen.
  • Choose the location of your SD card from the window that appears, and click ‘Send session’. (Note: you only need to select the root of the card, not go into any folders.)
  • The required files are exported to the SD card.
  • Right-click and select ‘Eject’ in your computer’s OS, then unplug the USB cable from the P-1.

2. Connect your P-1 to the sound system

Section titled “2. Connect your P-1 to the sound system”

3. Play your songs!

Section titled “3. Play your songs!”
  • Connect the power to your P-1 with the SD card inserted.
  • The first time a new session is loaded on the P-1 the device will show a list of the setlists on the SD card.
  • Turn the left encoder to select, and press it to load the selected setlist.
  • The songs in the setlist can now be cycled through with the < and > buttons or footswitches.
  • Quickly tap play to start a song. Tap again to pause. Hold for 1.5 seconds to stop.
  • You can also select another song using the < and > controls whilst the current one is still playing, then switch to it immediately by a quick press on play.
