4. Turn the DATA dial to switch the Home Screen to trim
display mode.
5. Use the 1, 2, 3 and 4 knobs to adjust the input levels.
If input levels are too high, the PEAK indicators to the left of
the knobs light red.
The dotted lines at the −20dB (
b
mark) and −12dB
positions are guides for input level adjustment.
Levels should fluctuate around −20 dB and reach their
maximums around −12 dB.
Since the sound will distort if the 1/2/3/4 knob PEAK
indicators light, set the input levels so they do not light.
CAUTION
During mic input, these also light if distortion occurs in the
analog circuitry.
During line level input, these do not light even if distortion
occurs in the analog circuitry.
NOTE
To monitor the sound while adjusting the input levels or
recording, connect headphones to the
PHONES
jack.
Use the
PHONES
jack volume control to adjust the
monitoring level.
