selected track LED lights up. The counter shows the level value of the selected track with

TechTip
Pre EQ level adjustment is used to decrease the level when the playback signal is
boosted by EQ and exceeds the maximum level as indicated by the red peak LED If
the
signal exceeded the peak during recording, decreasing pre EQ level does not
eliminate the
distortion. Regular level adjustment is done by adjusting the VOL
(volume). If no track is
distorting, pre EQ level should be set to the 0dB position.

the peak level. In this case, PRE EQ LEVEL should be decreased so that the
playback level does not distort.
