Setting the Correct Gain
Structure
l. The gain structure is now correctly set—you’ve optimized the level of
all signals coming into and out of the MIXPAD, and the end result will be
minimum noise and distortion and maximum clean sound. You’ll now
find that the majority of your mixes can be accomplished with most
channel Level controls at or near their 2 o’clock “0” (unity gain) position
and that the main Left/Right peak LEDs rarely if ever light (remember, if
they do light, it means that something is distorting!). If you need to make
adjustments to the overall level, alter the level control of your power
amplifier.
If you encounter difficulty with any aspect of setting up or using your
MIXPAD, you can call Samson Technical Support (1-800-372-6766)
between 9 AM and 5 PM EST.
