DPRO6 FM Audio Processor

© 2016 ITEL Elettronica e Telecominicazioni Snc

Adjust, if necessary, the input level of audio input "netaudio." If you intend to use any audio
processing during streaming audio playback, this setting can also be omitted since the processor
will provide for automatic leveling.
The preset for the network input can be chosen into the 

next window

, after "netaudio" input has been

selected into the current.

If you want to use more than a single audio source, for using the integrated automatic audio fallback,
proceed to its selection and its associated audio processing preset.

Finally, turn the 

audio fallback

 on.
