Operating Tips
To avoid overloading the pre-amp inputs, always
operate the master volume at a high level and
control the volume from the input volume. The
ideal situation is to have all the components of
the audio chain operating at the same operational
range.
Do not run the system with the mixer “peaking in
the red” while the box is turned down.
Do not operate the system with the input peaking
(red overload light on or ashing) and the master
volume turned down.
Red lights ashing on a mixer indicate distortion. If
you have a mixer with the facility to show you the
input level on a meter, for example then you push
a CUE/PFL button, set the input level to below the
level of the red end of the LED ramp.
If you run the row of red lights to the end of the
ramp you will cause distortion at the very start of
the pre amplier stage of the mixer. At this point
it will sound dirty and “zzy” regardless of how
good the rest of your sound system is. The rest of
the system will be reproducing a distorted sound.
If you need more volume, turn down the input
signal so it is out of the red and turn up the output
of the mixer.
