Basics
•Press LEVELS to access
•Set values using encoders A, B and C
•Change pages using encoder D
Where nothing else is stated the range of the level parameters is
Volume
Overall output level control.
Line Level
Output level control for the Line signal
Inst. Level
Output level control for the Instrument signal.
Line Gain & Instrument Gain
These parameters set the input gain for the Line input and the Instrument input. In the example below we set the Line gain. - The procedure is identical for setting the Instrument gain.
•Switch on any pedal in your signal chain that is placed prior to
•Strum your guitar as hard as you do when you play
•Adjust the line gain until the “0” appears:
LEVELS MENU >>>>>>>>>0
Line Gain : 16
•Then back off a few dB:
LEVELS MENU >>>>>>> I Line Gain : 14
•The correct gain is now set.
Left/Right Output
Sets the output level of left and right channels individually.
Boost Max Range: 0 to 10 dB
This setting determines the max range of the boost function. As 0 dBFS is the max level in the digital domain digital “boost” is done by attenuating the general level and then release this attenuation when boost is required. If you never use the Boost function at all set Boost Max parameter to 0 dB. This will give you the optimal signal to noise ratio.
Input Src (Input Source)
Range: Analog or Digital
The default setting is analog. This setting enables the analog inputs on the rear panel.
If you intend to connect digital equipment to the S/PDIF input, the Input parameter must be set to “Digital”. Note that the output signal is always present on both analog outputs and on S/PDIF out as well.
Mic-Pre
Range: Vocal or Guitar
This parameter determines the routing of the mic input signal.
MIC INPUT
MI
MIC LEVEL
Guitar: This is the setting to use if the mic input is used for guitar. All processing effects are available.
Vocal: If you are using this input for a Vocal microphone signal you will most likely prefer to route this signal past the Boost, Modulation and Delay blocks.
However the routing of this signal changes in more ways depending on the selected routing mode.
