To set the gain for either microphone
preamp, select the input to be adjusted
with its
button (a short press) and
speak into the microphone as if you were
recording, adjusting the gain knob until
the halo just starts to turn amber when
you speak at your loudest.
Good Level
A bit too high
Your recording
will distort
At this point, turn the knob down a bit
until you don’t see any amber. If the
halos ever turn red at the tops, you will
definitely need to turn the gain knob
down: red means your recording is likely
to distort. (See diagram below.)
You can also adjust the gains from
Vocaster Hub
by moving the on-screen
Mic Level
sliders: drag them to the right
to increase the gain.
