Nº326S Preamplifier Basic Operation
7. volume knob
Adjusts master volume level. Rotating the volume knob
increases (clockwise) and decreases (counterclockwise) master
volume level in 1.0dB increments up to 23.0dB and in 0.1dB
increments above 23.0dB. The minimum master volume level
setting is OFF. The MaxVol parameter can be used to determine
the maximum master volume level setting in 0.1dB increments
between 40.0 and 80.0dB. The factory-default maximum
master volume level is 80.0dB.
The Offset parameter can be used to determine individual
input volume level offsets in 0.1dB increments between –20.0
and +20.0dB. The factory-default input volume level offset is
0.0dB. Whenever an input is selected, the Nº326S automatically
applies the Offset parameter setting to master volume level.
Note the following about using the volume knob:
•Rotating the volume knob quickly accelerates the rate of
change to accommodate large adjustments. Rotating the
volume knob too quickly decelerates the rate of change to
prevent accidental adjustments that could send dangerous
signal levels to the loudspeakers.
•Rotating the volume knob slowly decelerates the rate of
change to accommodate fine, precise adjustments.
Note
•The master volume control does not affect record output
levels.
•All Nº326S volume controls, including master volume
and balance, are deactivated when SSP mode (page 4-8)
is activated.
