2.2.1 Setting the Microphone Level
To set your Revelator Dynamic’s input level, press and hold the Monitor button. The Volume knob will
turn green, letting you know that it is now controlling the microphone level.
Power User Tip:
If your input level is too loud, the Volume knob will flash red. This means that your input signal
is “clipping,” and will begin to sound distorted. If your input signal clips, it will overload the analog-to-digital con-
verters that take the sound of your voice and convert it to 1s and 0s that the computer can understand, causing
digital distortion. Digital distortion sounds terrible, and cannot be undone if recorded. Because of this, it’s import-
ant to keep your eye on this indicator while you’re setting your levels.

To exit this mode, simply wait five seconds or press the Monitor button again.
