SENSIT

Adjusting the sensitivity (transmitters only)

Via the “SENSIT” menu, you can adjust the transmitters’ input sensitivity.

The input sensitivity is adjusted too high when close talking distances, speakers with loud voices or loud music passages cause overmodulation in the transmission link. In this case, the SK 300 G2’s yellow LED (AF PEAK) will light up and the receiver’s level display for audio signal “AF” will show full deflection (see “AF peak indication (SK 300 G2 only)“ on page 11).

If, on the other hand, the sensitivity is adjusted too low, the transmission link will be undermodulated, which would result in a signal with high background noise.

The sensitivity is correctly adjusted when the level display for audio signal “AF” shows full deflection only during the loudest passages.

Note:

For monitoring the adjusted sensitivity, the transmitter’s level display for audio signal “AF” always indicates the audio level – even if the transmitter is muted.

The following figures are a guide to the best settings:

y Loud music/vocals:	–30 to –20 dB
y Presentations:	–20 to –10 dB
y Interviews:	–10 to 0 dB

y Musical instruments:
– electric guitars with single coil pickups:	–10 to 0 dB
– electric guitars with humbucker pickups:	–20 to –10 dB
– guitars with active electronics
(active pickups, active EQs, piezo pickups):	–30 to –20 dB
