Recording Using the Microphone/Line Input

To check the input level from the microphone or Line Input:

1.If you are using a mic and have connected the Alpha Studio™ to studio monitors, turn them down or off to avoid feedback.

2.If you want to hear the audio source in headphones, turn up the Alpha Studio Output Level knob and turn the Monitor Mix knob counter-clockwise (towards the Direct side). Press the Monitor Assign button so it is in the Mono position. This will let you hear output on both sides of your headphones when recording only one microphone or line level source.
