Pad Button and LED
This button applies an input pad to individual
channels to reduce input sensitivity by 18 dB.
Insert Button
This button enables insert points on individual
channels. PRE’s back panel has eight pairs of
Send and Return jacks for inserting external pro-
cessors (such as compressors or EQs) in the au-
dio path. Inserts are post the output trims.
If you do not have your signal routed through
an external effects unit, enabling the Insert will
effectively mute your signal.

The Gain indicator features a mini fader to ad-
just gain to the input signal on the PRE. The

ment) is 0 dB to +69 dB, adjustable in incre-
ments of approximately 3 dB.
