The guitar is recorded.

the input monitor mode and "" is shown on the home screen.

<Note>: We recommend to press the [REC SELECT] key for track 1 to unarm track 1.

6)While playing the guitar, adjust the recording level using the [TRIM] control of the [INPUT A] channel.

Adjust the level appropriately so that the PEAK indicator does not light.

Turning the [PHONES VOL] control clockwise raises the headphone monitor level.

The screen shows the input level of track 1, as well as the stereo L and R output levels.

<Note>: Adjust the [TRIM] control properly so that the PEAK indicator does not light at the loudest part of the guitar sound. If the input level is too high, the PEAK indicator lights and the sound may be distorted or noisy.

<Tip>: When receiving a line level signal, set the [TRIM] control to left ("LINE") to get the appropriate level. When receiving a micro- phone signal, set the [TRIM] control to right ("MIC") to get the appropriate level.
