6.6.3If Channel Volume Is Too High
If a channel is not clipping but the channel slider level control must be set below the -20 dB position to achieve the proper volume level, the Input Gain control setting is too high. Set the channel slider control knob to the 0 dB position and adjust the Input Gain control until the desired volume level is achieved. Reduce the Input Gain by turning the knob counterclockwise.
If the signal cannot be reduced below clipping with the Input level control at minimum (and the input source is not a microphone), change the Input to Line to pad the signal to a lower level, set the channel slider control knob to the 0 dB position and adjust the Input Gain control until the desired volume level is achieved.
