Adjusting Input Gain

The purpose of “Input Gain Control” is to allow input (source) signals of varying amplitudes to be equalized before they are routed and the volume is adjusted. Equalizing input signals provides a consistent reference for volume adjustments and eliminates jumps when routing between different inputs.

Typical uses for input gain (the nominal level of the signal from the source device) include switching consumer and professional grade audio equipment (whose levels can vary noticeably) in the same matrix switcher. Input gain adjustment is also used for equalizing amplitudes between balanced and unbalanced source inputs.

Caution: We strongly recommend that input gain adjustments be made only by a qualified dealer or installer.

The following steps tell how to adjust input gain as part of the process of equalizing input levels.

To adjust input gain:

1.Route the source (input) to be adjusted to the destination (output); see page 47.

Note: Audio adjustments can be made without routing the switch.

2.Press the Function Key. The Function menu appears.

3.Locate Adjust Audio by scrolling with the Control Dial.

4.Press the Select Key to enter the selection. The Adjust Audio submenu appears.

5.Scroll the Control Dial to Input Gain.
