2. If you’re using L/R audio to feed a monitor, transmitter, or STL, once you are on the Input/Output menu
screen, rotate the jog wheel until Output is highlighted. Press to select.
3. Rotate the jog wheel to highlight the appropriate Level control for the output being used. Press to select.

7. Rotate
the jog wheel to highlight FM Pre-emph.
Rotate the jog wheel to highlight the pre-emphasis
setting for your country or region. Only If BS-412 power limiting is required, turn it on from the Options
menu. If you’ve selected a L/R audio input device in previous steps, select the appropriate De-emph for
the following device.
Note: If you’re feeding an uncompressed digital STL, or want to use an audio output to feed the exciter,
turn De-emph off for that output. This means VOLT’s FM Pre-emph, selected at the start of this step,
stays as part of the signal to the STL. VOLT should be the only device providing pre-emphasis or limiting.
This means you should disable any additional pre-emphasis or limiting in the exciter.
