If you have multiple sound cards, you should recalibrate the DC adjust each time you select a new recording device. Certain sound cards
must also be recalibrated each time the sample rate changes or when switching between mono and multichannel recording.

You can recalibrate at any time, even during recording. However, it is preferable to perform recalibration with silence at the record
inputs.
