RECORDING WITH THE LAMBDA STUDIO
A. RECORDING USING THE MIC OR LINE INPUTS
This section explains how to record using the
Mic
or
Line
inputs on the back of the
Lambda Studio. The diagram below shows how the Lambda Studio is connected for
this particular application.

Turn down all of the Lambda Studio's input and output level controls. Plug your
microphone cable into the
Mic 2
XLR jack or line-level audio source to the
Line 1
¼"
jack on the back of the Lambda Studio. If the mic requires phantom power, engage the
+48V
switch (on the back of the Lambda Studio).
NOTE:
Remove phantom powered mics when not in use and turn off the phantom
power switch.
To set the input level for the Mic or Line inputs:
1. If you're recording a mic and the Lambda Studio is connected to studio monitors
in the same room, turn them off to avoid bleed and feedback and use headphones.
2. Set the
Output Level
knob to the 9 o'clock position.
3. Set the
Monitor Mix
knob to the 12 o'clock position. Press the corresponding
Monitor Assign
button so it is in the
Mono
position. This will let you hear
output on both sides of your headphones when recording only one microphone or
line-level signal.

4. While playing the line-level instrument or speaking/singing into the microphone,
gradually increase the corresponding gain by turning up the
Line 1

Mic
2
knob until the
Peak
LED next to the knob just begins to light occasionally.
Re-adjust the
Output Leve
l knob for the desired monitoring level.
