that the lower this selection is set, the higher the levels on the unit’s meters,
as this setting represents “nominal” input level.
Next adjust your console output (mixing desk) level (for the mix-minus) if
necessary. We suggest that you keep the peak level below a -6 to -7 reading,
this will allow some room for error on the part of your operators. If you are
using a tone to set levels you may need to set them considerably lower.
NOTE: Clipping must be avoided or hybrid performance will suffer.

IMPORTANT!
To ensure clipping is not taking place, set the Input Level to +8 and look at the
meters. If the last few LEDs on the meter illuminate, insert a pad in- line with the
input source.
•
Set the right meter to STUDIO OUT, if necessary, by pressing the button
located on the meter. You should see the audio from the phone line on these
LED bargraphs (since we are connected hybrid 1 to hybrid 2 the audio will
be reversed. The audio sent to hybrid 1 will return on hybrid 2 and will be on
the LED bargraph labeled 2 and the audio sent to hybrid 2 will return on
hybrid 1 and will be on the LED bargraph labeled 1. Bring up the fader for
hybrid 1 on your console.
•
Adjust the 2101 Studio Interface’s Output Gain adjustment found in the
Audio Settings screen. This sets the level for both outputs. Once you have set
hybrid 1 pull that fader down and bring up the fader for hybrid 2. If the
sources are not reading identically you will need to adjust the input trim of
the console on one of the two input channels.

You can now drop the call you made in the previous section. Push the right

HOT TIP!
If all of your studio’s have identical audio facilities you can write down the settings
determined above and enter these settings into all of the Studio Interfaces in your
facility.

Time to test it out!
Ok, you made it! Another hour and you can go home for the day! First we will check
that the mix-minus for each hybrid is correct. Then we will make a test call.
