Adjusting the input level
1 Press the RECORD (º) key to put the unit in
recording standby.
2 Set the MIC GAIN to M, and adjust the INPUT
volume so that the level meters extend as far as
possible without causing the PEAK indicator to
light.
If the level meters do not extend very far even
as the INPUT volume setting approaches 10, set
the MIC GAIN to H. On the other hand, if the level
meters stay extended even as the INPUT volume
setting approaches 0, set the MIC GAIN to L.
NOTE
If the INPUT switch is set to LINE, the MIC GAIN
setting has no effect.
