permanently the protective resistors in the input of the Preamp circuitry. If an AD
module input circuitry is damaged, following such a short, it will end up
permanently having inaccurate gain levels, distortion or even no signal at all on
some channels. Such damage is not covered by our warranty.
Mic/Line: Switches the Input between the Mic-Pre amplifier and the Line level
circuitry. The option will show the current input signal path it is set for (Mic or
Line).
The Line input sensitivity, switch from Mic to Line level and impedance
Line Fader of 0 dB, means 0 dBFS for +24 dBu Analog signal level present at
the Line input
Line Fader of + 6 dB, means 0 dBFS for +18 dBu Analog signal level present at
the Line input
Line Fader of + 20 dB, means 0 dBFS for +4 dBu Analog signal level present at
the Line input
Line Fader of + 66 dB, means 0 dBFS for -42 dBu Analog signal level present at
the Line input
Note #1: the MIC, Line and Instruments inputs are stored as independent
parameters, meaning that switching from Mic to Line to instruments and vice
versa will load their stored gain (sensitivity) value
Note #2: The ANUBIS Premium has been designed in order to be able to
benefit from the +3.1 dB SA-CD headroom offered by DSD, as per the
scarlet book standard. Therefore, a minimum of +6 dB gain is required on the mic
preamp or line input. This gain is applied in the digital section post AD just prior
to the sigma delta 1-bit modulator. It is automatically applied as soon as the ADs
are switched to DSD (64, 128, 256FS) and is visible in the preamp page. The
gain can be adjusted b0dB and +66dB in DSD mode. In Line mode,
with a gain of +6dB, an input of +21dBu will generate a signal of +3dB SA-CD, in
Mic mode, with the same gain, an input of +9dBu would generate a signal of
+3dB SA-CD.
Gain: Tap the channel you wish to adjust. When the Gain is highlighted the Anubis
Rotary Control lets you adjust the value in 0.5 dB steps.
The Gain range goes from 0 dB to +66.0 dB. Turn the Rotary knob clockwise to
increase the Gain value and turn counter-clockwise to decrease the Gain value.
