Setting Levels
Levels should be set in Record Pause mode.
To enter Record Pause mode, the One Touch
Recording feature needs to be set for OFF in the
menu (see pg. 19).
With One Touch Recording OFF, press the
RECORD button once to enter Record Pause
mode. As you sing or play your instrument,
turn the L and R input-level control knobs
clockwise while watching the VU meters.
When your performance is at its loudest, the
VU meter should read close to 0 dB without
going into the red zone. If the meter
consistantly bounces into the red, adjust the
level control knob counterclockwise to reduce
the level. If your mics have higher than normal
output, try switching the ALC/ATT switch to -
15dB. Peaking at 0 dB will provide the greatest
dynamic range while avoiding distortion.
SIDEBAR
Internal Microphone
1. Set the MIC/LINE (INT MIC/MONO/STEREO) switch to
“INT MIC.”
2. When “INT MIC” is selected, both the left level
control and the right level controls are active. Adjust
both left and right level controls to determine how
much signal is sent to either channel.
3. When using the INTERNAL MIC, it is recommended
that the SPEAKER switch be turned OFF. If you need
to monitor the incoming sound, use headphones.
Using headphones avoids feedback--the nasty squeal
that is heard when the mic picks up sound from the
speaker and amplifies it, creating a feedback loop.
To make sure the INTERNAL MIC does not pick up
the sound of any buttons being pressed, turn on One
Touch Recording (see pg. 19) or use the remote
control to start and stop recording.
4. See Setting Levels sidebar on this page.
Instruments
1. Select an input channel, Left or Right and set that
channels LINE/MIC/INST switch to “INST.”
2. Plug an instrument into the1/4” front panel input of
the selected channel.
3. See Setting Levels sidebar on this page.
Line Level Sources
1. When using stereo line level equipment, set both
LINE/MIC/INST switches to “LINE.”
2. Connect the Left and Right outputs of your line level
source to Left and Right 1/4” or XLR inputs on the
front panel.
Note :
Line level equipment can be connected to the
front panel Right and Left inputs ... OR ... to the rear
panel RCA AUX inputs. When connecting an auxiliary
source into the rear panel AUX inputs, you can adjust
the signal input level using the AUX IN control on the
rear panel. Use the front panel inputs for individual
control of Right and Left input levels.
