3.3.3 Output & Levels tab
On the Output & Levels tab, set Output volume quite low. If you have another volume control “down-stream”
of the DDRC-88A, set it about halfway and increase it later if needed.
Click on the Test button for the left channel and gradually increase the output volume until it is at a moderate
level, such that your voice would have to be raised to converse with someone sitting next to you.
Increase the Input gain slider until the blue bar on the level meter reaches up into the green section:
Click again on the Test button for the left channel to stop the test signal. Then click on the Test button for each
of the remaining channels. If any channel is not in the green zone, use its Channel volume slider to adjust the
volume of the test signal for that channel. (Some readjustment of Input gain and Output volume to get all
channels “green” may be required.)
If large adjustments are required to the Channel volume sliders, you may have a gain structure problem. In that
case, please refer to the section Optimizing gain structure starting on page 42.
When done, click the Proceed button.
