3.9 Setting Gains
Optimizing gain in the analog domain allows you to achieve a better signal-to-noise ratio
(dynamic range) than you would achieve by trying to optimize the gain in the digital
domain. As a result, perform all analog gain adjustments (
ssg
command) prior to any
digital gain adjustments (
gm
command).
Setting Analog Gain for Tap to Tap Matching
The set system gain command allows you to adjust the analog gain in both the left and
right channels for precise control over tap-to-tap matching.
